Summary

The MongoDB Atlas Data API is now generally available, offering a serverless, secure way for developers to access data from their MongoDB Atlas clusters over HTTPS. This fully managed API allows developers to think of their data in terms of an API, simplifying the process of integrating data into apps and services. The API has been widely adopted by customers for various use cases, including connecting to IoT environments and integrating with other cloud services. With its general availability, the Data API now supports new features such as configurable data permissioning and security, including authentication methods, role-based access control, IP Access List, and custom endpoints. Developers can easily get started with the Atlas Data API by choosing a cluster and generating an API key.
