Create One Serverless Instance in One Project
Update as of Feb 2025: This endpoint now creates a Flex cluster instead. This endpoint will no longer be supported starting January 2026. Continuous backups are not supported and serverlessContinuousBackupEnabled will not take effect. Please use the createFlexCluster endpoint instead.
Creates one serverless instance in the specified project. To use this resource, the requesting Service Account or API Key must have the Project Owner role.
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})$.
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

^[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9-]*$. -
Group of cloud provider settings that configure the provisioned MongoDB serverless instance.
-
Group of settings that configure serverless backup.
-
Flag that indicates whether termination protection is enabled on the serverless instance. If set to
true, MongoDB Cloud won't delete the serverless instance. If set tofalse, MongoDB Cloud will delete the serverless instance.Default value is
false.
