  1. 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

  2. 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

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. UUID fields are not getting parsed correctly

    Charts does not seem to support UUID fields and applies some sort of string value to it that cannot be encoded into UTF-8.
    That makes it very hard to ping what is the exact documents they are associated with if we use that field for grouping.

  9. Add support for contextmenu event within embedded SDK

    In the latest Charts beta there is support to hook click events to a callback.

    chart.addEventListener("click", (payload) => { .. } )

    I tried hooking the context menu (right click) event

    chart.addEventListener("contextmenu", (payload) => {...}

    but Charts asserts that is not recognized with a dialog

    Not supported event: contextmenu (sic)

    Being able to have both (left) click and the context menu user interactions will provide developer flexibility along with a better and more consistent user experience.

  12. Do not load filters values from database

    On large collections, loading filters potential values is very resources consuming. It would be great to not load all the data when displaying the filters.
    A button to toggle this behaviour would be great.

    Do not load graph before validation when editing.
    On large collections, loading graph is very resources consuming. It would be great to not load all the data at every configuration change.

  14. The ability to add a spider/radar chart

    For our specific chart requirements (comparing different entities), it is imperative that we are able to plot the multivariate data in a spider chart.

    I have read on the developer community that "...we are also planning a spider/radar chart in upcoming months." (dated 1 May 20) but since then I have been able to find any other reference wrt the realization for this feature.

  15. Dashboard refresh based on data

    It would be nice if m dashboard would refresh based on data, if a certain condition from data is matched.
    I have a datasource for a dashboard that received ~ 10 records first 1 minute on every top of an hour. I need to refresh this ASAP. On the rest of the hour, some data are coming but not every time the refresh needs to be done.
    I can filter out data in aggregation pipeline, but to get refresh ASAP I need to set refresh interval for 1 min (ideally even few secs) for whole hour. Anyway, I am receiving…

  16. filter

    The filters applied at the dashboard level should also be applied to the "Get Charts Data" export feature. The export currently contains all data from the underlying dataset.
    This counters the user's expectation, which may be to export only what is filtered/visible.

  17. 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.

  19. 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.
