Update the Snapshot Schedule

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.

Resource

PATCH /groups/{PROJECT-ID}/backupConfigs/{CLUSTER-ID}/snapshotSchedule

Request Parameters

Request Path Parameters

Parameter Type Necessity Description
PROJECT-ID string Required Unique identifier for the project that holds the cluster with the snapshot schedule you want to update.
CLUSTER-ID string Required Unique indentifier of the cluster whose snapshot schedule you want to update.

Request Query Parameters

The following query parameters 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 that indicates whether or not to wrap the response in an envelope.

Some API 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:

Name Description
status HTTP response code
envelope Expected response body
false

Request Body Parameters

Name Type Necessity Description
clusterCheckpointIntervalMin number Optional

Number of minutes between successive cluster checkpoints. This only applies to sharded clusters. This number determines the granularity of point-in-time restores for sharded clusters. You can set a value of 15, 30, or 60.

Important

You may use checkpoints for clusters that run MongoDB with Feature Compatibility Version of 4.0 or earlier. Checkpoints were removed from MongoDB instances with FCV of 4.2 or later.

clusterId string Optional Unique identifier of the cluster to which this backup configuration applies.
dailySnapshotRetentionDays number Optional

Number of days to retain daily snapshots. You can set a value between 1 and 365, inclusive.

Note

Setting dailySnapshotRetentionDays to 0 disables this rule.

fullIncrementalDayOfWeek string Optional Day of the week when Cloud Manager takes a full snapshot. This ensures a recent complete backup. Cloud Manager sets the default value to a random weekday.
groupId string Optional Unique identifier of the project that owns the backup configuration.
links array of objects Optional One or more links to sub-resources and/or related resources. All links arrays in responses include at least one link called self. The relationships between URLs are explained in the Web Linking Specification.
monthlySnapshotRetentionMonths number Optional

Number of months to retain monthly snapshots. You can set a value between 1 and 36, inclusive.

Note

Setting monthlySnapshotRetentionMonths to 0 disables this rule.

snapshotIntervalHours number Optional Number of hours between snapshots. You can set a value of 6, 8, 12, or 24.
snapshotRetentionDays number Optional Number of days to keep recent snapshots. You can set a value between 2 and 5, inclusive.
weeklySnapshotRetentionWeeks number Optional

Number of weeks to retain weekly snapshots. You can set a value between 1 and 52, inclusive.

Note

Setting weeklySnapshotRetentionWeeks to 0 disables this rule.
