Delete an Entry from the Project IP Whitelist¶

Note

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.

Important

The /groups/{GROUP-ID}/whitelist endpoint manages the Project IP Whitelist. This endpoint is distinct from the /users/{USER-ID}/whitelist endpoint, which manages an Atlas user’s API whitelist.

The Atlas API uses HTTP Digest Authentication. Provide a programmatic API public key and corresponding private key as the username and password when constructing the HTTP request.

For complete documentation on configuring API access for an Atlas project, see Configure Atlas API Access.

Syntax¶

copy

DELETE /groups/{GROUP-ID}/whitelist/{WHITELIST-ENTRY}

Request Path Parameters¶

Path Element Required/Optional Description

GROUP-ID Required. The unique identifier for the project for which you want to delete a whitelist entry.

WHITELIST-ENTRY

Required.

Can be either the:

AWS security group ID,
IP address, or
CIDR address

of the whitelist entry to delete. If the entry includes a subnet mask, use the URL-encoded value %2F for the forward slash /.

Important

When you remove an entry from the whitelist, existing connections from the removed address(es) may remain open for a variable amount of time. How much time passes before Atlas closes the connection depends on several factors, including how the connection was established, the particular behavior of the application or driver using the address, and the connection protocol (e.g., TCP or UDP).

The following query parameters are optional:

Query Parameter	Type	Description	Default
`pretty`	boolean	Displays response in a prettyprint format.	`false`
`envelope`	boolean	Specifies whether or not to wrap the response in an envelope.	`false`
