You manage MongoDB Atlas projects through an MCP Server that lets you create clusters, configure network access, manage users, and retrieve connection strings using simple MCP commands. This server provides a centralized, scriptable interface to Atlas resources, enabling you to automate common operational tasks across your projects.

How to use

Use a client that speaks MCP to interact with the Atlas MCP Server. You can run the server from the command line or integrate it into your development environment using a standard MCP configuration. The server exposes tools for creating clusters, setting up network access, creating users, and listing projects and clusters. Provide your Atlas API keys securely, either as environment variables or as command-line arguments, to authorize actions against your Atlas account.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need Node.js and npm installed on your machine.

Install the Atlas MCP package.

Run the install command:

Additional setup and usage notes

Configure your Atlas API keys in a secure way. You can provide them as environment variables or pass them through the command line when you start the MCP server.

Configuration and security

Store your Atlas keys in environment variables to keep them out of command histories and scripts. Use a dedicated, read-only key for operations that don’t require write access where possible.
