atlas api mongoDbCloudUsers createUser
On this page
Public Preview: please provide feedback at: Creates one MongoDB Cloud user account.
A MongoDB Cloud user account grants access to only the MongoDB Cloud application. To grant database access, create a database user. MongoDB Cloud sends an email to the users you specify, inviting them to join the project. Invited users don't have access to the project until they accept the invitation. Invitations expire after 30 days.
MongoDB Cloud limits MongoDB Cloud user membership to a maximum of 250 MongoDB Cloud users per team. MongoDB Cloud limits MongoDB Cloud user membership to 500 MongoDB Cloud users per project and 500 MongoDB Cloud users per organization, which includes the combined membership of all projects in the organization. MongoDB Cloud raises an error if an operation exceeds these limits. For example, if you have an organization with five projects, and each project has 100 MongoDB Cloud users, and each MongoDB Cloud user belongs to only one project, you can't add any MongoDB Cloud users to this organization without first removing existing MongoDB Cloud users from the organization.
To use this resource, the requesting Service Account or API Key can have any role.
This command is autogenerated and corresponds 1:1 with the Atlas API endpoint https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/v2/#tag/MongoDB-Cloud-Users/operation/createUser.
For more information and examples, see the referenced API documentation linked above.

atlas api mongoDbCloudUsers createUser [options]
Options
Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--envelope | envelope | false | Flag that indicates whether Application wraps the response in an envelope JSON object. Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query. Endpoints that return a list of results use the results object as an envelope. Application adds the status parameter to the response body. |

-h, --help | false | help for createUser | |
--output | string | false | preferred api format, can be ["json", go-template] This value defaults to "json". |
--output-file | string | false | file to write the api output to. This flag is required when the output of an endpoint is binary (ex: gzip) and the command is not piped (ex: atlas command > out.zip) |
--pretty | false | Flag that indicates whether the response body should be in the prettyprint format. | |
--version | string | false | api version to use when calling the api call [options: "2023-01-01"], defaults to the latest version or the profiles api_version config value if set This value defaults to "2023-01-01". |
