OpenAPI Specification

openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: MongoDB Atlas Administration Clusters Database Users API
  version: v2
  description: 'REST API for programmatically managing MongoDB Atlas organizations,

    projects (groups), clusters, database users, network access, backups,

    alerts, and billing. The v2 API is versioned and requires migration from

    the legacy v1 (unversioned) API.


    Authentication supports HTTP Digest with a public/private API key pair, or

    OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens issued to Atlas service accounts. Note: the Atlas

    Administration API does not provide cluster data access — use MongoDB

    drivers with database user credentials for that.
