Saves a customer-managed X.509 configuration for an Atlas project.

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.

Important

Creating or updating an X.509 configuration triggers a rolling restart.

You must have the Atlas admin role to use this endpoint.

Note

X.509 configurations and LDAP configurations are managed using the same resource. Requests to the resource will return both configuration objects.

PATCH /groups/{GROUP-ID}/userSecurity
Parameter
Type
Necessity
Description
GROUP-ID
string
Required
Identifier for the Atlas project associated with the X.509 configuration.

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

curl --user "{publicApiKey}:{privateApiKey}" --digest \
--header "Accept: application/json" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request PATCH "https://cloud.mongodb.com/api/atlas/v1.0/groups/{groupId}/userSecurity?pretty=true" \
--data '
{
"customerX509": {
"cas": "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\nMIICwjCCAaoCCQDUd
