Create One Managed Namespace in One Global Cluster
Creates one managed namespace within the specified global cluster. A managed namespace identifies a collection using the database name, the dot separator, and the collection name. To use this resource, the requesting Service Account or API Key must have the Project Data Access Admin role. Deprecated versions: v2-{2023-02-01}, v2-{2023-01-01}
Path parameters
-
Unique 24-hexadecimal digit string that identifies your project. Use the /groups endpoint to retrieve all projects to which the authenticated user has access.
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.
Format should match the following pattern:
^([a-f0-9]{24})$. -
Human-readable label that identifies this cluster.
Format should match the following pattern:
^[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9-]*$.
Query parameters
-
Flag that indicates whether Application wraps the response in an
envelopeJSON object. Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query. Endpoints that return a list of results use the results object as an envelope. Application adds the status parameter to the response body.Default value is
false. -
Flag that indicates whether the response body should be in the prettyprint format.
Default value is
false.Prettyprint
Body
Required
Managed namespace to create within the specified global cluster.
-
Human-readable label of the collection to manage for this Global Cluster.
-
Database parameter used to divide the collection into shards. Global clusters require a compound shard key. This compound shard key combines the location parameter and the user-selected custom key.
-
Human-readable label of the database to manage for this Global Cluster.
-
Flag that indicates whether someone hashed the custom shard key for the specified collection. If you set this value to
false, MongoDB Cloud uses ranged sharding.Default value is
false.Hashed Shard Keys -
Flag that indicates whether someone hashed the custom shard key. If this parameter returns
false, this cluster uses ranged sharding.Default value is
false. -
Minimum number of chunks to create initially when sharding an empty collection with a hashed shard key.
Maximum value is
8192.Global Cluster Sharding -
Flag that indicates whether MongoDB Cloud should create and distribute initial chunks for an empty or non-existing collection. MongoDB Cloud distributes data based on the defined zones and zone ranges for the collection.
Default value is
false.Hashed Shard Key
