Quickstart: Get started with MongoDB Atlas

In this quickstart, you create a MongoDB Atlas resource in the Azure portal.

Prerequisites

• An Azure account with an active subscription is required. If you don't have one, create an account for free.
• The Owner or Contributor role for your Azure subscription. Only users who are assigned one of these roles can set up integration between Azure and Confluent. Before you begin, verify that you have the appropriate access.

Create a resource

Begin by signing in to the Azure portal.

1. In the Azure portal, in the search box, enter the name of the service.

2. In the Services search results, select the service.

3. Select the Create option.

Basics tab

The Basics tab has sections for details about the project, the Azure resource, and the MongoDB Atlas organization.

Red asterisks identify required settings. Enter values for each required setting.

1. Project details:

   Setting	Value
   Subscription	Select a subscription from your existing subscriptions.
   Resource group	Use an existing resource group or create a new one.

2. Azure Resource Details:

3. MongoDB Atlas Organization details:

   Setting	Value

   The remaining settings update themselves to reflect the details of the plan that you selected for this new organization.

4. Select Next to add tags, or select Review and create.

Tags tab (optional)

Optionally, you can create tags for your resource. Then select Review + create.

Review + create tab

If the review finds no errors, the Create button becomes active. Select Create.

If the review identifies errors, a red dot appears next to each section where errors exist. To fix errors:

1. Open each section that has errors and fix the errors.

   Fields with errors are highlighted in red.

2. Select Review + create again.

3. Select Create.

The message "Deployment is in progress" appears. When the deployment is complete, the message "Your deployment is complete" appears on the upper-right corner of the Azure portal.

After the resource is created, select Go to resource to view your resource.
