CREATE A DATABASE USER FOR YOUR CLUSTER


On this page

 * Required Access
 * Procedure
 * Next steps

Estimated completion time: 2 minutes

You must create a database user to access your cluster. For security purposes,
Atlas requires clients to authenticate as MongoDB database users to access
clusters.

Database users are separate from Atlas users:

 * Database users can access databases hosted in Atlas.

 * Atlas users can log in to Atlas but do not have access to MongoDB databases.


REQUIRED ACCESS


To create a database user, you must have Organization Owner or Project Owner
access to the project.


PROCEDURE


To add a database user to your cluster:


Atlas CLI
Atlas UI

To create a database user for your project using the Atlas CLI, run the
following command:

atlas dbusers create [builtInRole]... [options]



To learn more about the command syntax and parameters, see the Atlas CLI
documentation for atlas dbusers create.


TIP


SEE: RELATED LINKS

 * Install the Atlas CLI

 * Connect to the Atlas CLI


NOTE

If you run atlas setup with the default selections, you don't need to run atlas
dbusers create.



To learn more about configuring additional database users on your cluster, see
Configure Database Users.


NEXT STEPS


Now that you have a database user for your cluster, proceed to Connect to Your
Cluster.
