    @Guest Thank you for sharing this.

    The 400 Bad Request error indicates that Atlas was unable to parse the request body before processing the operation. This typically occurs when the request payload is malformed, missing required fields, incorrectly encoded, or sent with an incorrect Content-Type header.

    Because this relates to a specific API request and may require reviewing request headers and payload details, this is best handled through our Support team so they can investigate directly with you.

    Could you please open a case via the Atlas Support Portal or start a conversation in the Atlas Support chat? When you do, please include:

    • The full request (headers and body, with sensitive information redacted)

    • The exact endpoint being called

    • The tool being used (e.g., curl, Postman, SDK, Terraform)

    This will allow the team to diagnose the issue more quickly. Thank you!
