Python to influxdb - insert if no record

I know influx is for measurement type data. But I'm also using it for annotations on certain events.

I have scripts that run every minute, that it would be difficult for it to realise an event has already happened. Is there something I can do on the insert to only insert if a new record rather than every time.

So there didn't seem to be a way of doing it (and no answers here). But I solved the problem by performing a query first and if no record found perform an insert.

Basically i had to make the scripts figure it out.
