Feature Request for Azure CLI: Support for Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB (vCore)

[carobitap]

Problem Statement
Currently, the Azure CLI only supports commands for "Azure Cosmos DB accounts" (such as az cosmosdb mongodb database create -a my-account -g my-rg -n some-db-name). However, when attempting to use the same commands for Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB (vCore) clusters, I receive the following error:

cli.azure.cli.core.azclierror: (ResourceNotFound)

Additional Information

• I have admin permissions for the resource.
• The cluster exists and is correctly configured.
• I am in the correct subscription.

Despite these factors, the CLI commands do not work for a MongoDB vCore cluster, which limits my ability to automate tasks like database creation and document uploads in a CI/CD pipeline.

---

Requested Solution
It would be incredibly useful to extend the CLI to support the following actions for Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB (vCore) clusters:

• Create databases
• Delete databases
• List databases
• Upload documents
• Other MongoDB-related management tasks

By adding support for these commands, it would enable seamless integration with Azure DevOps or other automation pipelines that require database management functionality.

---

Considered Alternatives
While it is possible to use mongosh to manually create databases and documents, this is not practical for a CI/CD pipeline, especially one where the pipeline itself does not have direct access to the database, but only to the resource in the Azure portal.

---

Context for the Request
I’m currently working on a pipeline that interacts with the resource in the portal, but the lack of CLI support for MongoDB (vCore) is a roadblock. Without the ability to automate tasks such as database creation, it becomes much harder to integrate MongoDB operations within our existing infrastructure.
