Legacy Backup Snapshots¶
MongoDB deprecated the Legacy Backup feature. Clusters that use Legacy Backup can continue to use it. MongoDB recommends using Cloud Backups. Effective 23 March 2020, all new clusters can only use Cloud Backups.
Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {GROUP-ID} is the
same as your project ID. For existing groups, your group/project ID
remains the same. The resource and corresponding endpoints use the
term groups.
The snapshots resource enables you to view snapshot metadata, edit
snapshot expiration dates, and remove existing snapshots. A snapshot
is a backup of your data captured at a specific point in time.
This resource only applies to clusters using Legacy Backups.
