Note

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 Atlas Administration API authenticates using HTTP Digest Authentication. Provide a programmatic API public key and corresponding private key as the username and password when constructing the HTTP request. To learn how to configure API access for an Atlas project, see Get Started with the Atlas Administration API.

Atlas limits the number of users to a maximum of 100 teams per project and a maximum of 250 teams per organization.

POST /groups/{GROUP-ID}/teams
Path Element
Required/Optional
Description
GROUP-ID
Required.
The unique identifier for the project to which you are adding the team or teams.

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

Name
Type
Necessity
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

Specify an array of documents, where each document represents one team you want to associate to the project. You must specify an array even if you are only associating a single team to the project.

Name
Type
Description
teamId
string

The unique identifier of the team you want to associate with the project. You must specify a teamId of an existing team, and your team and project must share the same parent organization.

You can use the Get All Teams endpoint to obtain the list of teamIds in an organization.

roleNames
string array

Each string in the array represents a project role you want to assign to the team. Every user associated with the team inherits these roles. You must specify an array even if you are only associating a single role with the team.

The following are the valid roles and their associated mappings:

Role Names
Project Roles
GROUP_OWNER
GROUP_CLUSTER_MANAGER
GROUP_DATA_ACCESS_ADMIN
GROUP_DATA_ACCESS_READ_WRITE
GROUP_DATA_ACCESS_READ_ONLY
GROUP_READ_ONLY

The response JSON document includes an array of result objects, an array of link objects and a count of the total number of result objects retrieved.

Description
results
array of objects

links

One or more links to sub-resources and/or related resources. The relations between URLs are explained in the Web Linking Specification

totalCount
integer

Each element in the result array is one team assigned to the project.
