  1. Sync Linked Objects Automatically

    Please Sync Linked Objects automatically with the parent object. The jump in use cases and compatibility would be exponential.

  2. Termination protection for realm apps

    it is very easy to delete a realm app, once deleted we cannot restore the app or recreate with same appId in this case we will be forced to publish new versions of apps with new app IDs. also there are no access roles when it comes to app services which is a big security hazard for apps in production as any member can delete an app by mistake.
    My Ideas are:
    1. Introduce role based access for app services
    2. give a restore app option for deleted apps (30 days before permanently getting deleted)

  3. Realm emulator

    It would be helpful to be able to launch a local Realm emulator for development purposes with Realm SDK, and for testing the permissions rules. To avoid relying on a real instance.

    Something similar to what Firebase supports:
    - https://firebase.google.com/docs/emulator-suite
    - https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/security/test-rules-emulator

  4. Support network proxy for Realm SDKs

    I copy here the feedback received on a support case about the lack of network proxy support in the Realm SDKs. That feature might be of interest for other customers as well, particularly during a product development phase, when we are mainly working behind a corporate proxy.

    "We deeply regret the inconvenience caused by the absence of proxy support in our SKDs at this time.

    But, We have received an update from our production manager regarding the ==tentative plans== to address the APIs related to proxy settings for all of Realm software development kits (SDKs) in the upcoming quarters, specifically…

  5. Support for North Europe(Azure) for App Services

    Our clusters are in North Europe, Ireland, and we plan to migrate our App Services (now located in West Europe, Ireland, AWS) to be located in West Europe, Netherlands, Azure.

    Support for North Europe, Ireland, Azure, region for App Services would be much appreciated. That way our Data Services and App Services would be fully aligned and with a better performance.

  6. dateonly and timeonly support

    The .NET now have two new types DateOnly and TimeOnly to represent date and time respectively. The SQL Server already support these types. Having them in Realm .NET SDK will make the development with these data types possible.

  7. Use Enums in Generated Realm Object Models

    When the JSON Schema for a collection contains a string enumeration, like the following:

    {
      "properties": {
        "_id": {
          "bsonType": "objectId"
        },
        "enumExample": {
          "bsonType": "string",
          "enum": [
            "Foo",
            "Bar",
            "Baz"
          ],
          "title": "The type of entity that was favorited, such as a Workout."
        }
      },
      "required": [
        "_id",
        "enumExample"
      ],
      "title": "EnumExample"
    }
    

    ... the generated Realm Object Models don't take advantage of the limited possible values. I've generated all of the available languages, and they all generate variations of a simple string.

    Here's TypeScript as an example:

    import Realm from "realm";
    export type EnumExample = {
      _id:

  8. Add Android Studio plugin to replace Realm Studio

    It's fairly unwieldy to use Realm Studio compared to SQLite support in Android Studio, which is in the App Inspection Tool window. I think it should be relatively easy to create a similar plugin for Realm. It would remove a large disadvantage compared to SQLite for Android developers and it would help rapid development.

  9. Realm Query Language Documentation: Sort, Distinct, Limit

    Realm Query Language Documentation located here https://www.mongodb.com/docs/realm/realm-query-language/#sort--distinct---limit needs updating with more specific examples of how to implement SORT, DISTINCT and LIMIT. The documentation also appears to be out of date (?)

  10. Flexible sync to support sharded cluster

    Currently https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/app-services/sync/configure/enable-sync/ states that "Enabling Flexible Sync in Your App Services Application requires a non-sharded MongoDB Atlas cluster running
    MongoDB 5.0 or greater". At the same time the maximum size of a single node in MongoDB Atlas is 4TB.

    What's the plan for apps that require much more than 4TB of data?

  11. Automatic Syncing of Referenced Objects

    Please implement the feature to automatically sync referenced objects when you add a subscription to the parent object. This would mitigate the need for multilayer subscriptions at every step.

  12. Provide Atlas App Services in GCP London europe-west2

    We have a MongoDB cluster in GCP London (europe-west2), it would be great to pair our Atlas App Services instance with it inside europe-west2, for speed and compliance reasons.

  13. Custom Init Documentation

    It would be great to have some documentation regarding how to go about custom initializing Realm objects in Swift. Most of the old docs which discussed the need/requirement for convenience init's has been removed. Also, most of the Git posts and replies date back to 2014/2015. So some clear guidance about using custom inits. (oh, and totally unrelated but some docs showing how to implement protocol's and codable Realm objects would be snappy! A LOT of folks ask about it on SO)

  14. Native Codable Support for BSON Document

    Supporting the codable protocol would clear out a lot of pain points in the swift sdk. I understand realm objects are classes not structs but implementing some kind of native conversion to Realm Objects would massively widen the set of use cases. Converting BSON docs from Remote access and GraphQL Queries to Realm objects is messy and lack any documentation. Having some kind of codable support would allow search functions and advanced MongoDB queries on a database with millions of objects without worrying about the sync infrastructure. It might not seem pertinent if you consider utility apps but if we…

  15. Realm GraphQL returning “null” when using a GraphQL alias

    The issue I am having is with GraphQL aliases. Currently I can run the following query with this result:

    Query:

    query {
    event {
    action
    }
    }
    Result:

    {
    "data": {
    "event": {
    "action": "create"
    }
    }
    }
    Although when I try to use an alias for one of the “action” field, it gives me a null value:
    Query:

    query {
    event {
    something: action
    }
    }
    Response:

    {
    "data": {
    "event": {
    "something": null
    }
    }
    }
    Is GraphQL aliasing not available for the Realm GraphQL API, or am I doing something wrong on my end?

  16. Documentation for the path parameter of Configuration

    The path parameter on the Configuration seems to be an important parameter when it comes to sync. This value should not be set when using sync. See the link to a forum post for more information.

    Overall, the configuration parameters could use some documentation.

  17. Provide a default webpage for password reset

    Our request is that MongoDB provide a landing page for password resets. As is, when a password reset email is sent, the developer needs to have their own webpage/server spun up to handle that. Most other SDKs (Firebase, Couchbase etc) provide a page to handle that interaction by default, with an optional developer provided site for special branding or other functionality etc.

  18. Event Library Support for .NET CORE for Event Sourcing

    As you can see this https://www.mongodb.com/docs/realm/sdk/swift/sync/event-library/ is only supported on the SWIFT SDK and would be amazing to bring its support in the .NET CORE SDK so that we can have our apps utilise Event Sourcing with mongodb and wouldn't need to go to cosmos or eventstore for this.

  19. Increased Authentication Visibility and Better Customization

    Having a fully managed authentication through Realm has been great, it continues to save a lot of time developing authentication and security protocols. With that said, as my application's admin I feel like my visibility into authentication is sparse. I can not help my users when they run into issues and am concerned as our application continues to grow. My request is for more visibility into authentication, including, but not limited to the following...

    Absolutely love the feature sets I see but just not that clear how to implement them :/.
    In particular I have seen conflicting messaging around authentication, some places advise that mongo app services authentication is not intended as a full authentication and should use other platforms. Why?

    That made me look at firebase auth with realm ... using custom jwt. Surely you can just create a…
