atlas api rollingIndex createRollingIndex

Public Preview: please provide feedback at: Creates an index on the cluster identified by its name in a rolling manner.

Creating the index in this way allows index builds on one replica set member as a standalone at a time, starting with the secondary members. Creating indexes in this way requires at least one replica set election. To use this resource, the requesting API Key must have the Project Data Access Admin role.

This command is autogenerated and corresponds 1:1 with the Atlas API endpoint https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/v2/#tag/Rolling-Index/operation/createRollingIndex.

For more information and examples, see the referenced API documentation linked above.

Command Syntax
atlas api rollingIndex createRollingIndex [options]
Name
Type
Required
Description

--clusterName

string

true

Human-readable label that identifies the cluster on which MongoDB Cloud creates an index.

--envelope

envelope

false

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.

--file

string

false

path to your API request file. Leave empty to use standard input instead - you must provide one or the other, but not both.

--groupId

string

true

Unique 24-hexadecimal digit string that identifies your project. Use the [/groups](#tag/Projects/operation/listProjects) 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.

-h, --help

false

help for createRollingIndex

--output

string

false

preferred api format, can be ["json", go-template] This value defaults to "json".

--output-file

string

false

file to write the api output to. This flag is required when the output of an endpoint is binary (ex: gzip) and the command is not piped (ex: atlas command > out.zip)

--pretty

false

Flag that indicates whether the response body should be in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prettyprint" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">prettyprint</a> format.

--version

string

false

api version to use when calling the api call [options: "2023-01-01"], defaults to the latest version or the profiles api_version config value if set This value defaults to "2023-01-01".
