  1. Create databases and collections via API thorough Terraform

    Create databases (DB) and collections via API thorough Terraform after the cluster has been created in Atlas. This would provide the ease of writing and running it in a single script before any data is loaded.

  3. Add Terraform resource for functions

    Would be great to have a terraform resource like mongodbatlas_function.
    Was mentioned here https://github.com/mongodb/terraform-provider-mongodbatlas/issues/828 but I didn't find the idea mentioned there, so I added this one here.

  4. A terraform resource for managing user access to the console

    We have a platform (as code using Terraform) where we integrate Mongo Atlas in AWS. We have multiple teams with various privileges who access the Mongo Atlas console daily basis. We would always like to manage the users in our version control. As Terraform is one of the best infrastructure configuration tools, we would like to have a terraform resource in order to manage the users via.

  5. Add Terraform support for Realm Apps

    Realm Apps (https://docs.mongodb.com/realm/get-started/create-realm-app/) can't be managed via Terraform. This would be a great addition to the provider!

  7. Terraform support for Database Triggers using Function events

    The Database Triggers resource supports only EventBridge right now. It would be awesome to see support for Function events as well

    Hi we working to enhance the the use of Triggers and Functions in Terraform, but this effort still several quarters away. Feel free to reach on in the interim in case of any questions and happy to help.

    Allow to add a team to a project and set roles.
    Split the creation of the project and the role assignment.

  10. Add the ability to configure the auto-resume setting for triggers through terraform

    Currently MongoDB triggers can be created through the TF, but to enabled the auto-resume setting this needs to be manually done through the Atlas UI. This should be an option on the "mongodbatlaseventtrigger" TF resource, so it can be all configured together.

  11. Create Atlas App Services and Link Them To Clusters with Terraform

    It would be great to create App Services (Realm Apps) and then create the service link to an Atlas Cluster with Terraform.

    This is so that Trigger resources can be created fully within Terraform, rather than having to hack together API calls, CLI commands or manual steps.

  12. A way to enable the Data API via Terraform

    I just noticed that MongoDB Data API is no longer in beta (Congrats!). It think it would be quite useful if the there was a way to enable this option programmatically via Terraform.

  13. Configuring provider with shared credentials file for secrets manager

    Currently the provider allows configuration for secrets manager for the API key, however it looks like only static AWS credentials can be used which require assuming a role first and exporting environment variables. It would be much cleaner if you could support shared profiles, much like the AWS provider does https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/aws/latest/docs#profile-1.
    https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/v1/developer-guide/configuring-sdk.html
    Specifically https://github.com/mongodb/terraform-provider-mongodbatlas/blob/master/internal/provider/credentials.go#L49 is static credentials, but would be great to add profile as an option as well.

  14. Terraform lifecycle ignore_changes tags

    It would be nice if tags would not be set of list and will be a map, like tags for Azure resources.
    In that case, you can ignore some tags by name. Like this

    lifecycle {
    ignore_changes = [
    tags["costcenter"],
    tags["environment"],
    tags["projectcode"]
    ]
    }

  15. Support terraform plan with ORG_READ_ONLY role

    An API key with ORGREADONLY should be sufficient to run a terraform plan. Afterall its describe is "Provides read-only access to the settings, users, projects, and billing in the organization.")
    However, this is not the case: checking settings for "Cloud Provider Access" [1] and "Encrypting at Rest" [2] fail due to mission permission. Read-write project permissions like GROUP_OWNER on each project are required.

    [1] https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/#tag/Cloud-Provider-Access/operation/listCloudProviderAccessRoles

  16. Make the app_id optional in the mongodbatlas_event_trigger resource when an aws_eventbridge event processor is defined

    Currently, when you define a trigger that uses the AWS Eventbridge via the UI it auto creates a realm App that links the DB change to the event bridge.

    However, with the mongodbatlaseventtrigger resource you have to manually defined an empty realm app and give the resource the app_id of that empty app.

    This is obviously not a 100% automated process.

    This could be, if the provider created the empty realm app by itself, then referencing the created app app_id.

    This would only be needed:
    1. when the appid is not provided
    2. the following attribute was

  18. Add boolean for applying changes only during maintenance window

    Add boolean for applying changes only during maintenance window in order to not affect workloads during peak periods.

    E.g.: we want to modify the instance type of our cluster, but we don't want to affect workloads during the day, therefore, any change to the cluster should be applied only during maintenance hours. The same functionality should be available in the console. As a matter of fact, all changes should be by default applied during maintenance window and user can choose to opt out and apply them immediately.

    See DocumentDB as an example for this feature.

  20. Reference existing third party integration in alert configuration notifications

    Provide a mechanism that enables referencing an existing atlas third party integration when using the alert configuration resource to create or update a third party notification.
    This is useful when a third party integration is imported or accessed through a data source, meaning the api token is not available. An example of this would be Slack integration as it has to be created through the Atlas UI using OAuth2, so the api token cannot be accessed in the terraform configuration.
