  1. Replicaset elected new primary alert needs to show user given cluster name and the region in which the primary node is running

    Replicaset elected new primary alert needs to show user given cluster name and the region in which the primary node is running. For a multi-region cluster, cross-region failovers are a major application impacting event, so the Alert needs to include details around the region in which the primary is running. Also Alerts should use the same node names that are visible in the Atlas console and not use the internal node names in the Alert. This very critical for support teams ability to identify impacted clsuters and applications.

  2. Custom templates of Alerts to deploy across many projects within an organization

    When I make a new project, I don’t want to have to redeploy the same set of Alerts I've already configured for another project.

    I want to be able to create custom templates/policies of Alerts at the organization-level that can be applied to projects within the organization. This template should be editable at the project-level after it is inherited to allow unique Alert configuration if a project requires.

    These templates should keep track of all edits that I make to default Alerts and new ones that I configure, including threshold values and notification settings.

  3. "Replica set elected a new primary" and other information alerts are not recorded in Atlas

    Alerts like the "Replica set elected a new primary" are considered informational, they trigger an email being sent but the alerts were not recorded in the open and closed alert page in Atlas UI. Also they cannot be retrieved via API.
    This is pretty confusing as you'd imagine once the alert is triggered, it'll be recorded in the page where all the other past alerts are kept, the concept of informational alert is vague and never properly communicated to users.
    Please record all types of past alerts in the UI and make them accessible via API.

  4. Option to edit maintenance alerts via API

    Maintenance alerts are created automatically when a maintenance window is set and these alerts by default send an email to the project owner.

    If you want something different in those alerts (Slack notification, PagerDuty, etc.), having to go one by one when you have multiple clusters is not practical, lot of manual interaction for a managed service.

    The goal of this request is to let configure/edit/create these alerts using the API, so it can be later included in Terraform.

  5. Alerts on Configuration Changes

    It would be nice to have an alert configurable when any change is made to the cluster configuration. It helps with compliance that there is knowledge of such changes without having to manually search and activity feed.

  6. Allow Billing Alerts per Project

    Currently, we can configure Atlas to send an alert when the current bill for any project is above a specific amount. It would be great to be able to set alerts for specific projects. This way we could more easily manage budget fors projects and alert project owners.

  8. Alert setup for failed logins

    There is no good monitoring or alert functionality for dealing with potential invalid login attempts.

    I suggest an alert setup to handle events when known users fail more than 3 times to login (either in Atlas or via driverlogin to db).

    We have had an external audit done and this is something they have found as a shortage in the MongoDB Atlas environment.

    Log files are good but not to monitor potential security issues

  9. Allow user provided alert templating for Atlas alerts

    I want to have the ability to provide their own templatized text for alerts. Often I may want to provide specific instructions to operations personnel for each alert type, or to provide links to relevant internal runbooks.

    Other systems such as Datadog and PagerDuty provide this kind of capability.

  10. Better alert trigger for index suggestions

    The current alert trigger for index suggestion is described here: https://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/reference/alert-conditions/#host-alerts

    "If the query targeting ratio for a host consistently exceeds 10,000 for a period of 10 minutes, Performance Advisor checks the host for inefficient queries and possible indexes to improve performance."

    Firstly we have issues with alerts constantly going on and off every few minutes if the query ratio is fluctuating around the 10k mark.

    Secondly, we often do not get alerts for worthwhile index suggestions. We run a multi-tenant platform. We have big clusters with hundreds of databases/tenants and thousands of collections. A huge amount of our queries…

  12. Include "fields" and "options" in index build email notification

    Hi, I'm wondering if it would be possible to not only include the database and collection names in the "Index build succeeded" email notification, but also the "fields" and "options" json objects.

    It's great to know what indices are built by the team as the database admin, and since there isn't a "createdAt" timestamp in mongodb, the emails would serve as a workaround for that as well.

    In short, it would be a valuable addition for our team if the "fields" and "options" data was included in the "Index build succeeded" email notification.

    Thanks in advance!

  13. Mongo DB alerts for latest version or release

    Automatic alerts from Mongo DB Team for the latest releases / versions available similar to the EOL(End of Life) alerts.
    This helps in planning the changes and upgrades reducing the manual effort on searching for latest versions.

  14. Multiple Email address for alerting

  15. Use existing main Integrations Slack key for all alerts automatically

    When updating the main Integrations Slack key, the token changes is not automatically deployed to the mongo alerts created earlier (slack notification). This feature would be helpful as at this time we have to update manually all alerts configured with a new token.

  17. Billing Alerts Improvement

    We find the conditions for billing alerts to be very limited. We were hoping we would be able to setup an alert that triggers when a certain threshold of our total subscription amount has been used for better monitoring. For example, >= 75% of the total subscription amount is used.

  18. Atlas alerts - include duration and date/time alert was closed

    currently alerts (sent to SLACK but probably other formats as well) reads this:

    Project: OS1

    Organization: SE Atlas

    CLOSED
    Host is down
    OS1-g-shard-18-05.bxxxxq.gcp.mongodb.net
    Created: 2020/06/11 03:44 BST

    Type: Mongos

    It would be helpful to also include:
    Closed: 2020/06/11 07:44 BST
    Duration: 1h 53m

    As the slack is usually set to each users timezone it creates a confusion when one is looking at how long issue lasted.
    This should be easy to implement and it would improve end user experience a lot.

    Same would be nice on Atlas 'closed alerts' tab - there seems to be no way currently to get…

  19. Alerts change from time based pattern to include actual alert in subject

    So far we are receiving atlas alerts in time based manner which are difficult to undersatnd/analyze just by looking at email subject.

    We are expecting a model in which we want to Separate alerts for each instance instead of combining alerts on a single time frame and Changing email alert subject to include alert description. This will allows us to understand the alert by looking at email subject , combine/view all alerts in email client (for example outlook) , write some rules on them and analyze the alert timing pattern by sorting and group by alert description.

    For example,

    Present…

  20. Enable Atlas Maintenance Notification without specifying a maintence window

    There should be an option to enable Alert notification for Atlas maintenence without specifying an Alert Window. Just because a specific window is not required, MongoDB Atlas should allow an option to receive notification that one occurred. This would save time hunting down root cause for restart events and allow customers to be notified when a change occurs in their cluster.
