Add Entries to an Access List

Base URL: https://cloud.mongodb.com/api/public/v1.0

POST /users/{USER-ID}/accessList
Parameter
Type
Description
USER-ID
string
(Required.) Unique identifier of the current user. To retrieve the ID of the current user, see Get All Users in One Project.

The following query parameters are optional:

Name
Type
Necessity
Description
Default
pageNum
number
Optional
One-based integer that returns a subsection of results.
1
itemsPerPage
number
Optional
Number of items to return per page, up to a maximum of 500.
100
pretty
boolean
Optional
false
envelope
boolean
Optional

Flag that indicates whether or not to wrap the response in an envelope.

Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope : true in the query.

For endpoints that return a list of results, the results object is an envelope. Cloud Manager adds the status field to the response body.

false
backupJobsEnabledOnly
boolean
Optional
Flag indicating whether to exclude daemons not enabled for backing up databases from the response. Set this to false to include daemon configurations with the backupJobsEnabled flag set to false.
true

The request body must be an array of access list entities, even if there is only one. The only field that you need to specify for each request object is the IP-ADDRESS.

If an IP address is already in the access list, it will be ignored.

If you specify a single IP address with the /32 subnet mask, Cloud Manager does not store the /32, as the /32 does not change the address.

Example

An address of 12.34.56.78 is the same as 12.34.56.78/32.

Parameter
Type
Description
ipAddress
string
(Required.) The IP address or CIDR block that you want to add to the specified user's access list.

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.

Name
Type
Description
results
array
Array includes one object for each item detailed in the results Embedded Document section.
links
array
Array includes one or more links to sub-resources and/or related resources. The relations between URLs are explained in the Web Linking Specification.
totalCount
number
Integer count of the total number of items in the result set. It may be greater than the number of objects in the results array if the entire result set is paginated.

Each result is one access list.

Name
Type
Description
cidrBlock
string
A CIDR-notated range of IP addresses.
created
date
The date this IP address was added to the access list.
ipAddress
string
An IP address in the access list.
lastUsed
date
The date of the most recent request that originated from this IP address. Note that this field is only updated when a resource that is protected by the access list is accessed.
lastUsedAddress
