Enable and Configure Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management for One Project¶
On this page
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
.
This feature is not available for M0
free clusters, M2
, and
M5
clusters. To learn more about which features are unavailable,
see Atlas M0 (Free Cluster), M2, and M5 Limitations.
Enables, disables, and configures Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management for an Atlas project with one of the following providers:
After configuring at least one Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management provider for the
Atlas project, Project Owners
can
enable Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management for each Atlas cluster for which they
require encryption. The Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management provider does not have to
match the cluster cloud service provider.
Atlas does not automatically rotate user-managed encryption keys. Defer to your preferred Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management provider's documentation and guidance for best practices on key rotation. Atlas automatically creates a 90-day key rotation alert when you configure Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management using your Key Management in an Atlas project.
Atlas encrypts all storage whether or not you use your own key management.
To learn more about key management, see Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management, including prerequisites and restrictions.
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.

| false |
Request Body Parameters¶
The required request body parameters depend on whether Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management is currently enabled:
