atlas clusters watch

Watch the specified cluster in your project until it becomes available.

Public Preview: The atlas api sub-command, automatically generated from the MongoDB Atlas Admin API, offers full coverage of the Admin API and is currently in Public Preview (please provide feedback at https://feedback.mongodb.com/forums/930808-atlas-cli). Admin API capabilities have their own release lifecycle, which you can check via the provided API endpoint documentation link.

This command checks the cluster's status periodically until it reaches an IDLE state. Once the cluster reaches the expected state, the command prints "Cluster available." If you run the command in the terminal, it blocks the terminal session until the resource state changes to IDLE. You can interrupt the command's polling at any time with CTRL-C.

To use this command, you must authenticate with a user account or an API key with the Project Read Only role.
