  1. Filter White-Listed Fields

    Previously, I was able to provide a top-level object field as a white-listed filter field and all sub-level fields would be included. Now, this is NOT allowed. My app is user customizable, in which they can create new fields to this object at will. There is no way I can maintain the white-listed sub-fields when my app uses a NOSQL approach, but yet the Charts filters are not. All of my charts are now coming back with Errors and won't load because of this change. Can you please please please provide the ability to specify a top-level object field and…

  2. Dashboard placement of charts: fixed mode

    The auto-placement behaviour of charts on dashboards may have its uses, but often it can be highly disruptive and require all sorts of chart-sizing workarounds and wasted time repositioning charts after they exercise their current anti-gravity tendency.

    Can we have a fixed-placement mode so that charts stay where we put them on dashboards?

  3. add categories for dashboards

    add the possibility to add categories to each dashboard so that it's possible to use them as a filter or viewing in a tree like / multi level structure.
    handy for when you have many dashboards

  4. Ability to set refresh rate via url param

    We have dashboards that run on TVs without human interactions
    I cannot change the refresh rate without human interaction

    You could add a ?refresh=5m to the url

  5. Array of mixed types not working correctly

    When we have an array of type [String, number], the second item is considered as string and hence, not able to do aggregation like sum.

    For example, consider
    ```

    $project: {
      transposed: {
        $zip: {
          inputs: [["aaa","bbb"], [1, 2]]
        }
      }
    }
    

    I am not able to create a data table with transformed.0 in col1 and max(transformed.1) in col2

  6. Shortcut to copy chart ID

    A simple button when the user hovers the chart that allows us to copy the chart ID without going to "embed > copy a part of the iframe" would really help people integrating dozens of charts. Thanks!

  7. Filter on multiple fields with embedding SDK.

    I think this is important for charts to tell an adequate story. With the dashboard 2 or more filters can be applied but when the chart is embedded only one filter can be applied. When using an authenticated login I need the possibility to restrict users on more than one condition without having multiple dashboards. For viewers on web app its also necessary to comb through the data easier.

  8. Permissions level to create charts but not data sources

    We use the new data source pipelines feature to scrub our data sources of sensitive information. Unfortunately, though, right now if a user has permission to create a chart, then they have permission to create data sources. This undoes all of the work to protective sensitive information! Having a permission level that allows a user to create new charts but not new data sources would greatly improving the security/privacy of our data when working with MongoDB Charts.

    Thanks for the feedback Eric. Your scenario is very valid and we’d like to support this. We’d like to integrate this into the Atlas permissions model properly, rather than make it a Charts-only thing, so it may take us a little while to sort this out.

  9. Make Mongo Charts works with self hosted database

    I want to keep hand on my data and prefer to run mongodb database on my servers.

    Mongo charts is not so easy to maintain compared to mongoDB so i am interested in the cloud solution, but connected on my self hosted databases.

  10. Optional Aggregation

    Most chart types rely on aggregation due to the nature of MongoDB datasets. Sometimes I have simple datasets where I want to set a field not as an aggregation but as the value of a field. Yes, we could use spreadsheets to achieve this, but its nice having all the charts in one interface

  12. Manage dashboard and data sourse access by team rather than individual.

    If it were possible to allocate teams to dashboards and data sources then management of a group of users who should only have access to a subset of charts would be much easier.
    At the moment when a new user joins a team they must be added individually to each dashboard and datasource.

  18. Hyperlinks in charts

    The idea is to be able to create hyperlinks with data from the charts in order to create connections with other web apps. This is similar to a Kibana functionality

  19. Make Charts Loading Screen Contextually Relevant

    Add the Chart Title to its Loading dialog.

    Would solve some UX problems for embedded charts - letting the user know what is coming to fill the space. There are workarounds for this currently (i.e. not using the charts title and having it on the render end instead... or having a conditional display that waits for the chart to load) but it would seem a more integrated experience all around to add context relevance to the Loading dialog, if possible.

    Thanks!

  20. server to database drill down for Ops Manager metrics

    When looking at server charts in Ops Manager METRICS, it would be good to have the ability to drill down to the database level. For example, I can easily see #connections to a host via Ops Manager UI. But, I want to know which databases in the cluster are being connected to, and currently, I have to mine the mongod logs for that.
    This is discussed https://support.mongodb.com/case/00687156
