Maintenance Window Considerations
Urgent Maintenance Activities
Urgent maintenance activities such as security patches cannot wait for your chosen window. Atlas will start those maintenance activities when needed.
Ongoing Maintenance Operations
Once maintenance is scheduled for your cluster, you cannot change your maintenance window until the current maintenance efforts have completed.
Maintenance Requires Replica Set Elections
Atlas performs maintenance the same way as the maintenance procedure described in the MongoDB Manual. This procedure requires at least one replica set election during the maintenance window per replica set.
Maintenance Starts As Close to the Hour As Possible
Maintenance always begins as close to the scheduled hour as possible, but in-progress cluster updates or unexpected system issues could delay the start time.

Type
Description
GROUP-ID
string
Unique identifier of the project from which you want to retrieve the Maintenance Window.

This endpoint might use any of the HTTP request query parameters available to all Atlas Administration API resources. All of these are optional.

Description
Default
pretty
boolean
Optional
Flag indicating whether the response body should be in a prettyprint format.
false
envelope
boolean
Optional

Flag indicating if Atlas should wrap the response in a JSON envelope.

This option may be needed for some API clients. These clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query.

For endpoints that return one result, the response body includes:

status
HTTP response code
envelope
Expected response body
false

This endpoint doesn't use HTTP request body parameters.

hourOfDay

Hour of the day that you want the maintenance window to start. This parameter uses the 24-hour clock, where midnight is 0 and noon is 12.
startASAP
boolean

Flag indicating that you want the maintenance window to start immediately upon receiving this request.

To use startASAP : true, You need to have scheduled maintenance and set your own maintenance window.

After you set startASAP : true, the project's maintenance starts immediately. startASAP resets to false after Atlas completes maintenance.

autoDeferOnceEnabled
boolean
Flag that indicates whether you want to defer all maintenance windows one week they would be triggered.
