  1. Set format for duration values for the Number chart

    It'd be great to have the possibility to format numbers as duration values. For example:

    I have a "Number" chart where I show the duration of some activity. I store this information as minutes and it'd help if I could select the format to show as h:m for example. I haven't found a way to use duration in a nicely formatted way as a simple indicator widget like the "number" one.

  2. Add "stale" indicator to charts after filter change(s)

    It would be very helpful for end-users of the Charts feature if charts that are "stale" because of changes to a filter have a visual indicator shown. It's potentially dangerous for a user to assume a chart has updated when it in fact hasn't yet started fetching data. This issue mostly impacts users on sub-optimal networks with reduced internet access speeds.

  3. Define predetermined input variables for a chart / dashboard

    Would be great if we could define "variables" (as input boxes) for a chart and dashboard that can then be used inside the aggregation query filter within the charts.

    For example - The user enters a UPC to an input box, we take that and convert it to something like:
    [{$match: {upc: /\d{0,6}$UPC$\d{0,6}/}}]

    This allows for better exposure of charts across the organization

  4. Locale formatting

    In the tab 'Customize' you can (de-)activate the thousands separators,
    The visual representation is in english locale, e.g. 1,000.00

    I would like to be able to change this to another locale. For german locale the number formatting should be 1.000,00

  5. When doing a lookup, sort the remote data source names

    Also, show the aliased remote data source name. If I have two data sources for the same collection, one with a pipeline filter, and the other without, and each named distinctly, show the manually entered name

  7. Get filters white list in SDK

    It would be great to have a method to get all the white-listed fields when embedding a chart with the SDK. It could help to automate the filters implementation.

  9. Add inclusive option for relative date filter

    Using a relative filter "from last 1 year" displays the last 365 days of data. If the dates are binned by month, that often means that the first month does not contain a full month's data.

    Please add an option for the relative filter to include complete data for the first bin.

  11. Candle stick charts

    Since continuous line charts do not allow iterating through more than 50k documents, it would be great to have simple option to merge/ aggregate data e.g., into candle sticks for time ranges (per day, per week etc.)

  12. Data processing in the same cluster region

    Currently any data visible through the Charts UI is routed through AWS US East.

    For customers inside the European Union it could be problematic to transfer the data to the US due to GDPR and data protection laws. Especially when dealing with sensitive user data.

    Data processing in the same cluster region would be a huge improvement to Charts.

  15. Different Security Level to Add Data Sources

    I would like to restrict who can add data sources to a charts project.
    I want to allow individuals to author their own dashboards and charts but I would like a smaller group the ability to add data source

  16. Do not allow same item to be added to data sources

    We are seeing that we will have the same data source added multiple times.
    This is confusing to the end user

    Thanks Scott. We currently allow this because it’s possible the user would want to have multiple data sources pointing to the same collection, but with different data source pipelines.

    That said I agree 100% that it’s confusing, and we have some plans to rework data sources to avoid this situation.

  17. Allow non Atlas data on Dashboard

    In the on-prem version of Charts the page at
    https://docs.mongodb.com/charts/onprem/data-sources#std-label-add-data-source

    mentions,

    Procedure
    From the Data Sources list, click the New Data Source button.
    Enter the Connection String URI of the MongoDB deployment to which you want to connect.

    For the Atlas version I would like to pull data from any of my Internet accessible MongoDB servers to form a more complete enterprise dashboard. Much like with Compass, all that is needed is a connection string and you are off too charting. The strict only Atlas data access is a bit too restrictive IMHO.

  20. Editable color ordering and ability to create palette for all chart type

    Actually it looks like the colors are alphabetically ordered.
    It would be great if we can edit this behavior by occurrence of the field for example.

    It would be great to add other colors or at least a custom color palette where we can actually create a palette for each chart type
