  • Select Access Manager, followed by Organization Access

  • Click Create API key and create a new key with "Organization Read Only" permissions

  • Click Add Access List Entry and add the Vanta IP address for your instance:

Keep in Mind

  • For Government Users: Ensure you are logged into your Atlas for Government account. The administrative interface is separate from the standard commercial Atlas interface.

  • After connecting your MongoDB Atlas environment to Vanta, Your Multi-Cloud Cluster Database doesn't appear within the Connection Scope.

  • Currently, We're unable to retrieve those resources from MongoDB Atlas via the API Endpoint [Get all clusters]

  • Unfortunately, there is no resolution to this issue at the moment, However you can provide manual evidence via Document upload of your Multi-Cloud Cluster alert settings and backups.
