Note

Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {PROJECT-ID} is the same as your project id. For existing groups, your group/project id remains the same. This page uses the more familiar term group when referring to descriptions. The endpoint remains as stated in the document.

Base URL: https://cloud.mongodb.com/api/public/v1.0

GET /groups/byName/{GROUP-NAME}

Description
activeAgentCount
integer

Number of active agents sending regular pings to Cloud Manager.

The value is refreshed about every 24 hours and cached. If you start a new agent or stop an existing one, the change can take up to 30 minutes to show up in the activeAgentCount field.

hostCounts
object
Total number of hosts by type. The embedded fields should be self-explanatory.
id
string
Unique identifier for the group.
lastActiveAgent
string
Time Cloud Manager last updated the activeAgentCount total for the project. Cloud Manager refreshes this value every 24 hours and caches it to record the number of active MongoDB Agents.
links
object array

One or more links to sub-resources and/or related resources. All links arrays in responses include at least one link called self. The relationships between URLs are explained in the Web Linking Specification.

name
string
Display name for the project.
orgId
string
Unique identifier for the organization to which the project belongs.
publicApiEnabled
boolean
Flag indicating that the API is enabled for this project. This is a read-only field that is always true.

Important

Some characters are not allowed in URLs. These are called reserved characters. If your {GROUP-NAME} includes reserved characters, like spaces, you must replace them with their percent encoding.

For example, instead of making this request (via curl):

curl --user "{PUBLIC-KEY}:{PRIVATE-KEY}" --digest \
--header "Accept: application/json" \
--include \
--request GET "https://cloud.mongodb.com/api/public/v1.0/groups/byName/My%20Project?pretty=true"

Make this request (via curl):

curl --user "{PUBLIC-KEY}:{PRIVATE-KEY}" --digest \
--header "Accept: application/json" \
--include \
--request GET "https://cloud.mongodb.com/api/public/v1.0/groups/byName/My%20Group?pretty=true"
