Chamaraja Wodeyar VII (1704–1734) was the seventeenth maharaja of the Kingdom of Mysore. He nominally ruled from 1732 to 1734.

Adoption and coronation

He was son of Devaraj Urs of Ankanhalli and adopted by Maharani Devajamma and Maharaja Dodda Krishnaraja Wodeyar I.

On 19 March, 1732, he ascended the throne at Seringapatam. Two years later, on 10 June 1734, he was deposed and imprisoned along with his wife for opposing the dalvoys, his late father's cousin Nanjaraja and commander Devaraja. He died in prison at Kabaladurga the same year. He was succeeded by his brother, Krishnaraja Wadiyar II.
