Remove One Organization

DELETE /api/atlas/v2/orgs/{orgId}

Removes one specified organization. MongoDB Cloud imposes the following limits on this resource:

  • Organizations with active projects cannot be removed.
  • All projects in the organization must be removed before you can remove the organization. To use this resource, the requesting Service Account or API Key must have the Organization Owner role.

Path parameters

  • orgId string Required

    Unique 24-hexadecimal digit string that identifies the organization that contains your projects. Use the /orgs endpoint to retrieve all organizations to which the authenticated user has access.

    Format should match the following pattern: ^([a-f0-9]{24})$.

Query parameters

  • envelope boolean

    Flag that indicates whether Application wraps the response in an envelope JSON 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.
