How do I upgrade my InfluxDB shell version?

I have been searching the internet for a way to upgrade my InfluxDB shell version from version 1.6.4 to 1.8.6 on my Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 2 (Yes it is ancient). My InfluxDB installation version is 1.8.6 and I read that if the InfluxDB and InfluxDB Shell versions are not the same then I will get parsing errors when using the CLI and I am.

Here is my version numbers on screenshot 1: enter image description here

Here is my attempt to update the InfluxDB shell version using the command sudo apt install influxdb-client: enter image description here

As you can see in the image above that the InfluxDB Shell is already the latest version (1.6.4) but I saw that there is in fact a shell version 1.8.3 as seen in screenshot below(from a YouTube video).

Here is the how I want it: correct shell version

If there is anyone that could help me I would appreciate it! This is also my first stack overflow question and I hope it is good enough : )

The Debian/Ubuntu archives still have a very old version of InfluxDB in them. But you can get the latest from https://portal.influxdata.com/downloads/

If you need 1.8 specifically (not 2.0), scroll down to the bottom of that page to the Are you interested in InfluxDB 1.x Open Source? section. There you can find ARM builds as tarballs you can download and extract. Both 32bit (armhf) and 64bit (arm64) builds are available.
