Important
Legacy subresources are deprecated as of the release of their corresponding CRDs. If your configuration currently relies on the subresource form of this resource definition, migrate to a CRD.
The AtlasCustomRole custom resource defines a custom
database role to allocate privileges to your
database users.
To create this custom role within a given project, you must either:
Reference the
AtlasProjectCustom Resource name in theAtlasCustomRolecustom resource, for projects you manage with Atlas Kubernetes OperatorReference the project ID of your Atlas project in the
AtlasCustomRolecustom resource, for projects you don't manage with Atlas Kubernetes Operator
Important
Custom Resources No Longer Delete Objects by Default
Atlas Kubernetes Operator uses custom resource configuration files to manage your Atlas configuration, but as of Atlas Kubernetes Operator 2.0, custom resources you delete in Kubernetes are no longer (by default) deleted in Atlas. Instead, Atlas Kubernetes Operator simply stops managing those resources in Atlas. For example, if you delete an
AtlasProjectCustom Resource in Kubernetes, by default the Atlas Kubernetes Operator no longer automatically deletes the corresponding project from Atlas. This change in behavior is intended to help prevent accidental or unexpected deletions. To learn more, including how to revert this behavior to the default used prior to Atlas Kubernetes Operator 2.0, see New Default: Deletion Protection in Atlas Kubernetes Operator 2.0.Similarly, Atlas Kubernetes Operator does not delete teams from Atlas if you remove them from an Atlas project in Kubernetes with the Atlas Kubernetes Operator.
Explicitly define your desired configuration details in order to avoid implicitly using default Atlas configuration values. In some cases, inheriting Atlas defaults may result in a reconciliation loop which can prevent your custom resource from achieving a
READYstate. For example, explicitly defining your desired autoscaling behavior in yourAtlasDeploymentcustom resource, as shown in the included example, ensures that a static instance size in your custom resource is not being repeatedly applied to an Atlas deployment which has autoscaling enabled.autoScaling: diskGB: enabled: true compute: enabled: true scaleDownEnabled: true minInstanceSize: M30 maxInstanceSize: M40
Atlas Kubernetes Operator does one of the following actions using the Atlas Custom Database Role API Resource:
Creates a new custom database role.
Updates an existing custom database role.
Examples
Basic Example
The following example shows an AtlasCustomRole custom resource
that defines the shard-operator custom role, with privileges
for backing up and monitoring sharded clusters within the
my-project project.
apiVersion: atlas.mongodb.com/v1 kind: AtlasCustomRole metadata: name: shard-operator-role namespace: mongodb-atlas-system labels: mongodb.com/atlas-reconciliation-policy: keep spec: projectRef: name: my-project namespace: my-operator-namespace role: name: my-role actions: - name: getShardMap resources: cluster: true - name: shardingState resources: cluster: true - name: connPoolStats resources: cluster: true - name: getLog resources: cluster: true inheritedRoles: - name: operator-role-1 role: backup
Independent CRD Example
The following example shows an AtlasCustomRole independent
CRD that defines the same shard-operator
custom role defined in the Basic Example. This custom resource definition
allows you to create this role in a project you don't manage in the
same instance of Atlas Kubernetes Operator with which you define this resource. To
enable independent operation, you must use an externalProjectRef
instead of a projectRef, and you must supply a
connectionSecret directly since this resource can't inherit API
credentials from its parent project.
apiVersion: atlas.mongodb.com/v1 kind: AtlasCustomRole metadata: name: shard-operator-role namespace: mongodb-atlas-system labels: mongodb.com/atlas-reconciliation-policy: keep spec: externalProjectRef: id: 671998971c8520583f24f411 connectionSecret: name: my-atlas-key role: name: my-role actions: - name: getShardMap resources: cluster: true - name: shardingState resources: cluster: true - name: connPoolStats resources: cluster: true - name: getLog resources: cluster: true inheritedRoles: - name: operator-role-1 role: backup
Parameters
This section describes the AtlasCustomRole custom resource parameters available.
metadata.nameType: string
Required
Name that the
AtlasProjectCustom Resource uses to add this custom role to a project.
metadata.namespaceType: string
Optional
Namespace that you want to contain the
atlasCustomRolecustom resource. If unspecified, Atlas Kubernetes Operator uses the current namespace set bykubectl.
spec.connectionSecret.nameType: string
Conditional
Name of the opaque secret that contains the organization ID and API keys that Atlas Kubernetes Operator uses to connect to Atlas. If unspecified, Atlas Kubernetes Operator falls back to either:
The
spec.connectionSecretRef.nameparameter of the parentatlasProjectThe default
globalsecret, ifspec.connectionSecretRef.nameis undefined for the parentatlasProject
This parameter is mandatory for independent CRDs.
Atlas Kubernetes Operator watches secrets only with the label
atlas.mongodb.com/type=credentialsto avoid watching unnecessary secrets.The following example labels a secret:
kubectl label secret the-user-password atlas.mongodb.com/type=credentials
spec.externalProjectRef.idType: string
Conditional
ID of the project to which the custom role belongs. You must specify the project ID of an existing Atlas Project. This parameter is required for custom roles that belong to projects managed by either:
A different instance of Atlas Kubernetes Operator
Tooling other than Atlas Kubernetes Operator
For custom roles that belong to projects managed by the same instance of Atlas Kubernetes Operator, use
spec.projectRef.nameif you do not usespec.externalProjectRef.id.A custom role can only belong to one project. To define the same custom role for multiple projects, create custom resource definitions for each project.
spec.projectRef.nameType: string
Conditional
Name of the project to which the custom role belongs. You must specify an existing
AtlasProjectCustom Resource. This parameter applies only to custom roles that belong to projects managed by the same instance Atlas Kubernetes Operator.For custom roles that belong to projects managed by either:
a different instance of Atlas Kubernetes Operator
tooling other than Atlas Kubernetes Operator
use
spec.externalProjectRef.id.A custom role can only belong to one project. To define the same custom role for multiple projects, create custom resource definitions for each project.
spec.projectRef.namespaceType: string
Conditional
Namespace in which the
AtlasProjectCustom Resource specified inspec.projectRef.nameexists.For custom roles that belong to projects managed by either:
a different instance of Atlas Kubernetes Operator
tooling other than Atlas Kubernetes Operator
do not set this parameter.
spec.role.actionsType: array
Optional
List of objects that represents the individual privilege actions that the role grants.
spec.role.actions.nameType: string
Required
Label that identifies the privilege action. For a complete list of actions available in the Atlas Administration API, see /reference/custom-role-actions.
spec.role.actions.resourcesType: array
Optional
List of objects that indicate a database and collection on which the action is granted, or indicates that the action is granted on the cluster resource.
spec.role.actions.resources.clusterType: boolean
Optional
Flag that indicates that the action is granted on the cluster resource.
Note
This parameter is mutually exclusive with the
spec.role.actions.resources.collectionandspec.role.actions.resources.databaseparameters.
spec.role.actions.resources.collectionType: string
Optional
Human-readable label that identifies the collection on which the action is granted. If this value is an empty string, the action is granted on all collections within the database specified in the
spec.role.actions.resources.databaseparameter.Note
This parameter is mutually exclusive with the
spec.role.actions.resources.clusterparameter.
spec.role.actions.resources.databaseType: string
Optional

Optional
List of objects that represent key-value pairs that indicate the inherited role and the database on which the role is granted.
spec.role.inheritedRoles.databaseType: string
Optional
Human-readable label that identifies the database on which the inherited role is granted.
Note
This value should be
adminfor all roles except read and readWrite.
spec.role.inheritedRoles.nameType: string
Optional
Label that uniquely identifies the inherited role. You can specify another custom role or a built-in role.
