automation tools available in the market.
We recommend reading the post linked above as a prerequisite to what we will
cover here — some common use cases with the MongoDB Atlas API.
The GUI versus API
While point-and-click actions in the MongoDB Atlas GUI are easy, they do not

Earlier this year, we announced the availability of our cloud database
service, MongoDB Atlas, with global support for Amazon Web Services,
Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform.
And since then, we’ve been humbled by the overwhelming reception from the
