Atlas Data API
The Atlas Data API is a managed service that allows users to interact securely with data stored in Atlas via standard HTTPS requests. This API simplifies interactions with the Atlas cluster, eliminating the need for a driver. It's important to note that the Data API is not a direct connection to your database. Instead, it functions as a fully managed middleware layer that mediates between your cluster and the clients sending requests.
It can be utilized in any platform that supports HTTPS, including web browsers, web servers, CI/CD pipelines, serverless and edge compute environments, mobile applications, and internet of things (IoT) devices. It eliminates the need to install any database drivers or libraries, allowing you to send standard HTTPS requests.
Here's an example of a standard HTTPS request using the Data API:
curl -s "https://data.mongodb-api.com/app/app-book/endpoint/data/v1/action/ -X POST \ -H "Content...
