You can use the Cloud Manager UI to interact with data in the following ways:

  • View databases, collections, and indexes in your cluster.

  • Create and drop databases, collections, and indexes.

  • Insert/edit/delete documents.

  • Create and run aggregation pipelines to process your data.

The Cloud Manager UI reads from the primary unless the primary is unavailable. If the primary is unavailable, the Cloud Manager UI reads from a non-hidden, non-delayed secondary member.

The Cloud Manager UI uses the Automation to retrieve all data. No Cloud Manager configuration changes are required to access data in the Cloud Manager UI.
