Snapshots
Note
Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {PROJECT-ID} is the
same as your project id. For existing groups, your group/project id
remains the same. This page uses the more familiar term group when
referring to descriptions. The endpoint remains as stated in the
document.
This resource allows you to view metadata of, change the expiration date
for, and remove existing snapshots. A snapshot is a complete copy of the
data in a mongod instance at a point in time.
You can retrieve snapshot metadata for the whole cluster or replica set, or for a single config server in a cluster.
To restore the snapshot data, you must create a restore job.
