I want to create a TTL index for a table.
- Table size 1.2TB
I have a shard infra. Each shard is having 3 node replica set.
For creating this index, can I go with the rolling index creation method? Or any other suggestion?

The rolling index build procedure is recommended. Here is what they say in the doc:
To minimize the impact of building an index on replica sets and sharded clusters, use a rolling index build procedure as described on Build Indexes on Replica Sets.
