  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. 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.

  4. 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!

  5. 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.

  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.

  9. 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. 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.

  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

  20. Terraform data source for Point in Time Recovery

    It has been confirmed by MongoDB support, that in Atlas, there is no way to know the last point in time you can recover a cluster to using OpsLogs. Surely this is an oversight, as we should be able to tell, from the backup material available, what point in time we can recover to, and not just from.

    I need to automate a restoration of a cluster into another cluster in another project in a second region. I copy backup material, including OpsLogs, to that region. I would like to be able to use Terraform to get the Unix Timestamp,…
