Can you use influxdb3-python with older version of InfluxDB?

I am getting the following error when I try to read the data from indluxdb using the influxdb_client_3 library.

FlightUnavailableError: Flight returned unavailable error, with message: failed to connect to all addresses; last error: UNKNOWN: ipv4:127.0.0.1:8086: Ssl handshake failed: SSL_ERROR_SSL: error:0A00010B:SSL routines::wrong version number. gRPC client debug context: UNKNOWN:failed to connect to all addresses; last error: UNKNOWN: ipv4:127.0.0.1:8086: Ssl handshake failed: SSL_ERROR_SSL: error:0A00010B:SSL routines::wrong version number {created_time:"2023-12-08T15:52:16.849447103+00:00", grpc_status:14}. Client context: IOError: Server never sent a data message. Detail: Internal

The code i am running:

fh = open(certifi.where(), "r")
cert = fh.read()
fh.close()

client = InfluxDBClient3(
token=my_token,
org=my_org,
database="pokemon-codex", enable_gzip=True, write_client_options=wco,

query = '''SHOW COLUMNS FROM caught'''
table = client.query(query=query, language='sql', mode='pandas')
