Last Updated:Jan 26, 2026

Disables password-free access over Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) for an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance.

Operation description

Before you call this operation, make sure that the ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance meets the following requirements:

  • The instance is a replica set or sharded cluster instance.

  • The database engine version of the instance is 4.0 (with the minor version of mongodb_20190408_3.0.11 or later) or 4.2. You can call the DescribeDBInstanceAttribute operation to view the database engine version of the instance. If necessary, you can call the UpgradeDBInstanceEngineVersion operation to upgrade the database engine version of the instance.

  • The network type of the instance must be VPC. If the network type of the instance is classic network, you must call the ModifyDBInstanceNetworkType operation to change the network type to VPC.

  • You can only disable but not enable password-free access over VPC.

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
