Add a new MongoDB Atlas connector

This task requires either the Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne.

  1. In ConductorOne, open Admin and click Connectors > Add connector.

  2. Search for MongoDB Atlas and click Add.

  3. Choose whether to add the new MongoDB Atlas connector as a data source to an existing application (and select the app of your choice) or to create a new application.

    Do you SSO into MongoDB Atlas using your identity provider (IdP)? If so, make sure to add the connector to the MongoDB Atlas app that was created automatically when you integrated your IdP with ConductorOne, rather than creating a new app.

  1. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

    A MongoDB Atlas connector owner must have the following permissions:

    • Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
    • Organization Owner access in MongoDB Atlas
  1. Click Next.

Next steps

  • If you are the connector owner, proceed to Configure your MongoDB Atlas connector.

  • If someone else is the connector owner, ConductorOne will notify them by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

Configure your MongoDB Atlas connector

A user with the Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne and Organization Owner access in MongoDB Atlas must perform this task.

Step 1: Generate an API key in the MongoDB Atlas organization

  1. Navigate to the MongoDB Atlas organization you wish to integrate and click Access Manager.

  2. Click Create API key.

  3. Give the new API key a description, such as “ConductorOne integration”.

  4. In the Organization Permissions area, select the relevant permission:

    • Organization Owner if you want to use ConductorOne to provision MongoDB Atlas team and project membership

    • Organization Read Only if you do not want to use ConductorOne for provisioning

  5. Click Next.

  6. Carefully and copy and save the public key and private key. We’ll use these credentials in Step 2.

Step 2: Add your MongoDB Atlas credentials to ConductorOne

  1. In ConductorOne, navigate to the MongoDB Atlas connector by either:

    • Clicking the Set up connector link in the email you received about configuring the connector.

    • Navigate to Admin > Connectors > MongoDB Atlas (if there is more than one MongoDB Atlas listed, click the one with your name listed as owner and the status Not connected).

  2. Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

  3. Paste the public key you generated in Step 1 into the Public key field.

  4. Paste the private key you generated in Step 1 into the Private key field.

  5. Click Save.

  6. The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. View the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

That’s it! Your MongoDB Atlas connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
