Creating Bots
Bots are "headless" users that can be used to perform certain actions against the Atlas Cloud API, such as pushing and reading schema changes from the Registry, or reporting CI and migration statuses. However, bots cannot be used for local development or to access the Atlas Cloud UI.
Organizations on the Community (Free) plan cannot use bot tokens for local development, and must use their personal
tokens instead. Personal tokens are issued by running atlas login and are limited to the users who created them.
Creating a Bot User
To create a bot user, make sure you are logged in as an administrator to you Atlas Cloud account.
Follow these steps to create a new bot user:
To get to the bot management screen, click on Settings > Bots in the left navigation. In this screen, click on the Create Bot button.
Give your bot a name and click Create.
Copy the token and store it in a safe place. You will not be able to see it again.
