Get the Snapshot Schedule¶
On this page
MongoDB deprecated the Legacy Backup feature. Clusters that use Legacy Backup can continue to use it. MongoDB recommends using Cloud Backups. Effective 23 March 2020, all new clusters can only use Cloud Backups.
Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {GROUP-ID} is the
same as your project ID. For existing groups, your group/project ID
remains the same. The resource and corresponding endpoints use the
term groups.
The Atlas API authenticates using HTTP Digest Authentication. Provide a programmatic API public key and corresponding private key as the username and password when constructing the HTTP request. To learn how to configure API access for an Atlas project, see Configure Atlas API Access.

Syntax¶
GET /groups/{GROUP-ID}/clusters/{CLUSTER-NAME}/snapshotSchedule
Request Parameters¶
Request Path Parameters¶
Parameter | Necessity | Description |
|---|---|---|
GROUP-ID | Required | Unique identifier for the project. |
CLUSTER-NAME | Required | Name of the cluster. |
Request Query Parameters¶
This endpoint might use any of the HTTP request query parameters available to all Atlas API resources. All of these are optional.
Name | Type | Necessity | Description | Default | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
pretty | boolean | Optional | Flag indicating whether the response body should be in a
prettyprint format. | false | ||||||
envelope | boolean | Optional | Flag indicating if Atlas should wrap the response in a JSON envelope. This option may be needed for some API clients. These clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query. For endpoints that return one result, the response body includes:
| false |
Request Body Parameters¶
This endpoint does not use HTTP request body parameters.
Response Elements¶
Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
groupId | string | Unique identifier of the project. |

snapshotIntervalHours | number | Number of hours between snapshots. |
snapshotRetentionDays | number | Number of days to keep recent snapshots. |
dailySnapshotRetentionDays | number | Number of days to retain daily snapshots. |
pointInTimeWindowHours | number | Number of hours in the past for which a Continuous Cloud Backup snapshot
can be created. |
clusterCheckpointIntervalMin | number | Number of minutes between successive cluster checkpoints. This
