    There's no resource in terraform-provider-mongodbatlas to create a collection, but there is a resource to create a search index, which requires a collection to be created beforehand.

    This means that the lifecycle of a DB with a search index cannot be managed entirely in Terraform - I have to do something out-of-process to create the collection (e.g. use the MongoDB client). I can't even do this using the Atlas CLI, much to my chagrin.
