Authentication Triggers - Atlas App Services

The Triggers documentation is moving to the Atlas docs. Please refer to the Triggers documentation in its

new location

.

An authentication trigger fires when a user interacts with an authentication provider. You can use authentication triggers to implement advanced user management. Some uses include:

To open the authentication trigger configuration screen in the Atlas App Services UI, click Triggers in the left navigation menu, click Create a Trigger, and then select the Authentication tab next to Trigger Type.

Configure the trigger and then click Save at the bottom of the page to add it to your current deployment draft.

To create an authentication trigger with App Services CLI:

  1. Add an authentication trigger configuration file to the triggers subdirectory of a local application directory.

    Note

    App Services does not enforce specific filenames for Atlas Trigger configuration files. However, once imported, App Services will rename each configuration file to match the name of the trigger it defines, e.g. mytrigger.json.

  2. Deploy the trigger:

Authentication Triggers have the following configuration options:

Field

Description

Trigger Type

The type of the trigger. For authentication triggers, set this value to AUTHENTICATION.

Action Type

The authentication operation type that causes the trigger to fire.

Providers

A list of one or more authentication provider types. The trigger only listens for authentication events produced by these providers.

Event Type

Choose what action is taken when the trigger fires. You can choose to run a function or use AWS EventBridge.

Function

The name of the function that the trigger executes when it fires. An authentication event object causes the trigger to fire. This object is the only argument the trigger passes to the function.

Trigger Name

The name of the trigger.

Authentication events represent user interactions with an authentication provider. Each event corresponds to a single user action with one of the following operation types:

Operation Type

Description

LOGIN

Represents a single instance of a user logging in.

CREATE

Represents the creation of a new user.

DELETE

Represents the deletion of a user.

Authentication event objects have the following form:

{  "operationType": <string>,  "providers": <array of strings>,  "user": <user object>,  "time": <ISODate>}

Field

Description

operationType

The operation type of the authentication event.

providers

The authentication providers that emitted the event.

One of the following names represents each authentication provider:

Note

Generally, only one authentication provider emits each event. However, you may need to delete a user linked to multiple providers. In this case, the DELETE event for that user includes all linked providers.

user

The user object of the user that interacted with the authentication provider.

time

The time at which the event occurred.

An online store wants to store custom metadata for each of its customers in Atlas. Each customer needs a document in the store.customers collection. Then, the store can record and query metadata in the customer's document.

The collection must represent each customer. To guarantee this, the store creates an Authentication Trigger. This Trigger listens for newly created users in the email/password authentication provider. Then, it passes the authentication event object to its linked function, createNewUserDocument. The function creates a new document which describes the user and their activity. The function then inserts the document into the store.customers collection.

{  "type": "AUTHENTICATION",  "name": "newUserHandler",  "function_name": "createNewUserDocument",  "config": {    "providers": ["local-userpass"],    "operation_type": "CREATE"  },  "disabled": false}
exports = async function(authEvent) {  const mongodb = context.services.get("mongodb-atlas");  const customers = mongodb.db("store").collection("customers");  const { user, time } = authEvent;  const isLinkedUser = user.identities.length > 1;  if(isLinkedUser) {    const { identities } = user;    return users.updateOne(      { id: user.id },      { $set: { identities } }    )  } else {    return users.insertOne({ _id: user.id, ...user })     .catch(console.error)  }  await customers.insertOne(newUser);}
