## Resource Import Operations
64+
65+
MongoDB Atlas AWS CloudFormation resources support the import operation, allowing you to bring existing Atlas resources under CloudFormation management. When importing resources, please consider the following:
66+
67+
### Import Requirements and Considerations
68+
69+
1. **DeletionPolicy Attribute**: Your resource template must include the [DeletionPolicy](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-attribute-deletionpolicy.html) attribute in order to specify what happens to the resource when it is removed from the stack.
70+
71+
2. **Outputs Restrictions**: As part of the import operation, you cannot modify or add [Outputs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/outputs-section-structure.html) to the template. However, you can add outputs after the import is complete.
72+
73+
For more details, refer to the [official AWS Resource Import documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/resource-import.html).
