Connector
MongoDB
Read and write MongoDB collections, including Amazon DocumentDB. Enter a single host: seedlist (mongodb+srv) addressing is not supported yet, so an Atlas cluster needs one of its shard hostnames. Picking a collection shows its columns in the builder, read from a sample of its documents.
Settings
What the connection form asks for. Every connection has a Staging side, which it needs, and an optional Production side with values of its own; both ask for the same settings.
| Host | |
| Port | |
| Database | |
| Username | |
| Password | Stored encrypted, and never shown again after you save it. |
| Auth database | The database to authenticate against (defaults to admin). |
| Encryption | MongoDB Atlas and Amazon DocumentDB require encryption. A self-hosted MongoDB serves plain connections unless TLS was explicitly configured on it - choose No encryption for one of those, or the connection will time out looking for a server. Choices: Require encryption; Require encryption, verify certificate and hostname; Require encryption, verify certificate; No encryption (legacy setting); No encryption. |
Testing the connection
Test connects and sends MongoDB's ping, giving up after 10 seconds.
Good to know
- Enter a single host. Seedlist (
mongodb+srv) addresses are not supported yet, so for an Atlas cluster use one of its shard hostnames. - A collection's columns come from a sample of its documents, so the builder shows them without a run.
