  1. Custom logo watermark on charts

    Would be great to add a semi-transparent watermark to the corner or center of charts. Especially useful while screenshotting or embedding charts.

    If i can set a global config for watermarks across all charts, that would be great as well.

  2. See the charts used by a data source

    When editing the pipeline for a data source, there is a message saying "This data source is used by one or more charts. Any changes to the pipeline may impact these charts."

    It would be nice to have a convenient way to see a list of the charts used by that data source, so that I can fix the charts after modifying the data source pipeline.

    Currently, I need to go to each of my charts and click on the "Edit" button to see which data source it is using, which is inconvenient if I have a lot of charts.

  3. Remove references to JS global object

    Stop working with Javascript global object. Angular removed access to global (for tree shaking reasons ++) in Angular v6.x. We are now at Angular v13.x.

    Angular users will not have an easy time embedding your JS library into their applications.

    An Angular project will fail with the error: "Cannot access global" when trying to embed a Chart.

  4. Chart Import should appear when there are no dashboards

    Currently, if there are no dashboards on the /dashboards page (e.g. https://charts.mongodb.com/charts-xxxxxxx/dashboards), the only option is to add a new dashboard. See 1addDash.png attached.

    If there is an existing dashboard, there is the same "Add Dashboard" button, and there's also a pull-down menu to import a chart. See 3importdashboard.png

    My use case for importing is for folks new to MongoDB and/or Charts. I'd like to be able to import a dashboard without having an existing dashboard.

    (My current workaround is a tutorial showing how to make a dashboard, exit, then import).

    started  ·  Tom responded

    Thanks for the suggestion - we've actually already started work on this. We'll also move the "create sample dashboard" to the same place, and allow you to invoke it whether or not you have existing dashboards.

  5. Charts in source code

    We have different environments and creating the chart in a test environment and then deploying this dashboard/graph to another environment would be nice. Kinda like how you deal with deploying code to different environments from source code. Either have the option to link chart to another system like github, azure devops or similar git repos or have some kind of chart-library you can version control your charts to. In the live environment if a chart has been changed that broke something going back to the previous version would be really helpful.

  6. Suggestions on indexes

    I would to be able to see the queries targeting different data sources and even better would be to get suggestions based on data source of indexes that could improve the performance of charts. Since the people managing the data itself in our case won't create the graphs this would help.

  7. Moving Bubble charts

    I'd like to see the ability within MongoDB charts to have moving bubble charts as my data is updated. Similar to https://flowingdata.com/2019/03/26/relationship-stages/

  10. Hide the Help Bubble Icon

    Option to hide or minimize help bubble icon.

    It is too big and blocks view when editing charts. Really annoying.

    Especially the case when trying to resize charts. The Bubble blocks the resize selector

  11. Expose MongoDB Logs as a Data Source to Charts

    I'd like to be able to chart some of the metrics from the logs into Charts. This will allow me to have one central place to see all the relevant data I want to chart.

  12. On Heatmaps can we have a logarithmic option on the Intensity 'axis' please?

    On Heatmaps can we have a logarithmic option on the Intensity 'axis' please? I have heatmaps with a few very large counts that effectively cause the variation in the majority of smaller numbers to be obscured in the intensity representation. A logarithmic option would allow the smaller numbers to show more clearly. (It is hard to do this in the data source, as the count is being performed at chart level.)

  13. Allow to process totals

    Allow the charts to do calculations on the totals, say we fields: [currentAmount, renewedAmount]
    And the chart shows as totals [1000, 800]

    Then it should allow to show it as .80 (or 80% with formatting), at least in a Text, Number Chart.

    Keep in mind, since so far what I've researched we can only do calculations on each field then it would not be possible to add ratios per document.

  15. Re-zero bar chart after clicking legend item on stacked bar chart

    Being able to highlight an individual series by clicking on its name in the legend great! Having an option to allow it to display as an ordinary bar chart so the relative heights within that series can be compared would be even better.

  16. Interactive Graph Visualization in Charts

    MongoDB advertises that it can be used as a graph database. Sample article https://www.mongodb.com/databases/mongodb-graph-database

    The power of a graph database is in it's interactivity and visualization. There are many visualization tools from native graph database software such as Neo4j Browser or Neo4j Bloom. While MongoDB may be able to store graph database content, the missing link is the ability to visualize and interact with graph data. Requesting for Charts to add Graph chart types that can be used by developers and for end users to consume.

  17. Import single charts in existing dashboards

    As we can now export dashboards as code, it could be great and very usefull to have the option of import a single chart (or some) into an existing dashboard.

  20. Use datasources from multiple projects

    Currently it seems to only be possible to create charts from databases on a single Project. My org has many teams using Atlas and we each work in separate Projects but occasionally we want to provide visualizations of our data that cross teams. Currently we can't do that because Charts is tied to a single project. To be clear, I'm not interested in being able to combine data from multiple databases into a single chart, but rather into multiple charts in the same dashboard.
