  1. Add UI to describe collections/fields in Atlas and simple validations

    Most old SQL databases allow table and column-level descriptions as a core feature. For distributed teams, or agile teams prototyping an app, it would be useful to be able to document/describe fields, expected/allowed values etc straight in the UI.

    I'd like a Definitions tab after Find/Indexes in the Collections view where I can indicate BSON type and add a title/description for each field in my schema.

    The JSON Schema Validation mechanism could be used as a basis for storing this information, since it already has a properties definition with a description for each field name in a document.

    Whenever a query is fed into the filter search box, ensure that the count of the result is also provided somewhere above the result of the query.

  3. Add visual information to indicate if a collection is capped or not.

    Right now there is no way to tell through the portal or Compass if a collection is capped or not. It would be helpful if there were some visual indicator in the Data Explorer if a collection is capped and if so what the retention parameters (bytes and max documents) are set to.

  4. View all documents in a collection on Atlas UI

    The current limitation in Atlas restricts viewing documents within collections to a maximum of 200 per view. It would be beneficial to have the functionality to scroll through all documents without encountering the message: "To view additional results, connect to your cluster using the mongo shell."

  5. Always display TTL index's seconds to expire

    We have a lot of TTL indexes and sometimes we need to know the number of seconds till expiration ("expireAfterSeconds").
    This information is available only if we hover over the tiny tooltip (see screenshot). This is very annoying and impossible to copy/paste.

    Please always show the number of seconds for TTL indexes or at least add a button to copy the value.

    We would appreciate it if you could take this to your Product/Engineering to implement (should take exactly one minute as the value is already their in the HTML DOM).

  6. Ability to have UI Users with access to list Indexes but not browse collection documents

    We'd like to have users that are read-only and that have access to see metrics and list indexes but not do operations or be able to explore the collection documents.

    This is important for application developers to be able to operate their databases without needing to have read access to contents.

  7. Allow deletion of timeseries documents

    I'm aware of the limitations for timeseries document deletion, but it would still be great to be able to delete an entire batch documents have the same meta data... such as "Delete all that match this metaField."

  10. If you select "Collections" on a database, and you don't have at least "Project Data Access Read Only" access, you get an unhelpful message

    If you don't have the access righrts to read data, instead of a suitable message, you get "An error occurred while querying your MongoDB deployment.
    Please try again in a few minutes."
    Totally unhelpful, as trying again won't fix your permissions!

  11. Change the copy document icon

    At the moment the Copy Document and Clone Document icon are conceptually identical (two sheets on top of each other with a diagonal offset to suggest duplication) so whenever I want to do one or the other I have to check which is which with the hover tooltip.

    It would make sense to change the Copy Document icon to a clipboard icon or something like that.

  12. Index creation should not be possible via UI if maximum number of indexes exist in the ollections

    Index creation should not be possible via UI if maximum number of indexes exist in the collections. Or a warning should be shown

  13. Data Explorer pagination or seperate tab for name spaces

    Right now the data Explorer renders all collections and this often results in time outs for very big deployments. To make the UI usable I propose that the side bar with all the collections be a seperate tab, paginated server side or otherwise. Thank you

  14. Refresh button like "Contact Team" button

    There should be a refresh button like the "Contact Team" button on the bottom righthand corner in the "database" section, so that users don't always need to scroll up and down, just to update their schemas

  15. Rename "collections" to "databases and collections"

    Please rename collections tab to DBs and collections. I was so confused as a newbie if my cluster name was my db name since there was no hint of where databases are in User Interface (UI). Then when I opened collections tab, I saw databases there!

  16. online/cloud version mongodb shell

    It would be nice to have and online/cloud version of mongodb shell. I am trying/learning mongodb. I have server in the cloud but to use mongodb shell I have to install it. My "desktop" is raspberry pi, and it's pain to install mongodb on it, because it's all compiled C++.
    Alternatively mongodb shell written in python or java would make it much easier to run on any OS.

  17. Functionality to have Atlas Data Explorer display the size of the largest document in the collection

    Currently, the Atlas Data Explorer UI displays only the collection size and total documents in the collection, but not the size of the largest document in the collection. It would be a nice feature to have Atlas Data Explorer display the size of the largest document in the collection.
