  2. Terraforming IP access list for project API key

    The Terraform provider supports setting up IP access lists for organization API keys with "mongodbatlasaccesslistapikey". For project API keys, however, there is no way of managing IP access lists with Terraform, and we have to do it manually using the MongoDB Atlas UI.

    Terraforming this is valuable because it would allow us to document the why and the what for each IP address or CIDR block. Having it in code will also increase the visibility of these access lists to the rest of the team, as changes to project API key access lists will be code-reviewed…

  3. Allow to add tags to Atlas Project Clusters

    Tagging resources is not a new idea and it is widely used across cloud/service providers, that allow the operators to use tags to better identify deployed business resources.
    Today, this is not available, making it harder to create processes that allow operators to identify deployed resources, in particular deployed clusters. Leading operators to use the cluster name or project name to build strict hierarchies, to distinguish, as an example, which projects or clusters are development or production by providing a prefix or suffix. This approach is brittle, since you cannot change the name of a cluster (or want to) needing…

  4. Having tag/label in the Atlas UI

    Hello,

    The ATLAS portal used to view our organizations, projects, deployments, etc... does not offer a tag/label functionality at the visual interface level.

    This is problematic because when managing multiple organizations, projects, and deployments. We need to be able to put metadata on these objects/components (organization, project, deployment, user, custom group, API Key, Network address) in order to properly manage our inventory.

    In Azure, this notion of "tag" is very useful and can be used on all types of components (See attached image which presents tags that we have on an Azure component used for encryption at rest).

    We would…

  5. Support tags on Mongo databases

    I have been supporting multiple projects/clusters with databases from different business units.

    I'd like the ability to tag databases using a key value pair - similar to GCP, Azure, AWS. Tags will help us organise and understand what's running in our clusters and ensuring a more efficient/granular billing process.

  7. Automatic backup outside Atlas

    For DR strategy, one need to have its backups outside Atlas.
    This can be achieved in several ways. Some are:
    - Provide APIs to download the current backups and let the customers automate this on their side
    - Write backups in the customer provided cloud account (aws s3, azure blob stroage...) My favorite option

    I found many ideas related to my needs, but they were too specific. This need is more general: just provide a way to have backups automatically outside of atlas.

  9. Allow user to specify either more date types, or arbitrary archive criteria

    Currently to configure the online archive service, you specify which column you want to use, which must be a Date type. Our collections often use integer fields holding the offset from the epoch, and there are other fields people might reasonably used.

    My suggsetion would be to allow for a diverse set of date types, or ideally, allow the user to specify the criteria themselves with a mongo query.

  12. Add possibility to invite api key(s) to newly created projects

    For different types of automation, api key(s) must be added to project(s). It would be helpful if it could be possible to add existing api key(s) to new projects using mongodbatlas\_project terraform resource, example:
    resource "mongodbatlas_project" "test" {
    name = "project-name"
    org_id = "<ORG\_ID>"

    teams {
    team_id = "5e0fa8c99ccf641c722fe645"
    role_names = ["GROUP_OWNER"]

    }
    api_key {
    public_key = "xyzxyzxy"
    role_names = ["GROUP_READ_ONLY"]
    }
    }

  13. Allow creation of a free cluster (M0) through the API

    Through the API it is possible to create several projects within an organization, and as far as I understand you offer 1 free cluster per project....

    So, why not create the M0 cluster also through the API? (considering the limitation of only 1 for the project, of course)

    This would be of great help for integrations that automatically generate small test environments for certain applications that plan to use atlas as a database server.

    Hi Bruno,

    Thank you for taking the time and raising this feedback. We believe it’s crucial to support you and development teams in integrating MongoDB with your CI / CD pipeline. For example by enabling generation of small test environments using M0 clusters.
    With that in mind, we’re happy to share that this capability has been recently added to our Public APIs as well as MongoCLI. To learn more and read about other new capabilities we’ve added, visit https://docs.mongodb.com/mongocli/stable/release-notes/

    Thank you again for sharing your idea and keep it coming.
    All the best,
    Jakub

  15. Add Test Failover permissions to the Project Cluster Manager role

    Add Test Failover permissions to the Project Cluster Manager role.

    We'd like to have folks with this permission without also allowing them to modify Project membership and all the other permissions that come with being an Owner.

  16. more information in AWS IAM audit logs

    We are using MongoDB-AWS for authentication, and have set up the audit log to log events taken by AWS roles. However, there is insufficient information in the logs to identify who is doing those actions, as roles can be assumed by multiple people.

    An example log line in the current audit log:
    { "atype" : "authenticate", "ts" : { "$date" : "2021-01-05T00:21:52.628+00:00" }, "local" : { "ip" : "192.168.248.203", "port" : 27017 }, "remote" : { "ip" : "172.31.0.5", "port" : 54195 }, "users" : [ { "user" : "arn:aws:sts::555555555555:assumed-role/developer-role/", "db" : "$external" } ], "roles" : [ {

    The full ARN including the user information is now captured in audit logs when AWS IAM authentication is used with assumed roles.  This is a delayed update; the change was made in 2021. Thank you for your feedback to make MongoDB better.

  17. Terraform resource to provision maintenance windows

    I propose creating a new terraform resource to provisioning maintenance windows.

    This could be helpful to avoid setting this manually at the project level.

    I'm new to Terraform but wouldn't mind to work on it, in case it makes sense.

    Thanks

  18. Create option in terraform for keep backups after destruction

    I saw that a feature was released to keep the backups of a cluster even if it was terminated. Basically the idea is to add a bool in terraform that does the work of activating or deactivating this feature, because whoever destroys the cluster using terraform does not have the option to keep the backup.

    Backup Compliance Policy was released with v1.9.0 and Retain Backup flag is available in mongodbatlas_cluster and mongodbatlas_advanced_cluster in v1.10.0. Thank you for the feedback. 

  19. Allow configuration of Data Federation via Terraform

    The mongodbatlas_data_lake (which should be renamed to reflect the new Data Federation name) doesn't allow you to specify the configuration. Without it, there is little value in having the resource defined in terraform at all.

    This issue: https://github.com/mongodb/terraform-provider-mongodbatlas/issues/561 was created over a year ago to ask for this. A comment from MongoDB indicates its in the plan, just wanted to provide a vote for it.

  20. mongodbatlas_serverless_privatelink_endpoint

    I'm trying to import a serverless private link endpoint but I have no success with the current resource "mongodbatlasprivatelinkendpoint". As I investigate I saw that "mongodbatlasprivatelinkendpoint" is using the "private endpoint" API not the "serverless private endpoint" API reference on this url https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api/serverless-private-endpoints/ that is why its unable to get the resource I wanted to import.

    It is good if we have a separate resource for the serverless private endpoint because it is the only way to securely connect to AWS without using the network peering connection. As of this writing network peering is not yet…
