Granular Permissions
Right now Mongo Atlas allows you to assign two types of roles to all the users: Organization and Project, and for each set it gives you some predefined roles.
The problem with this is you can't have any kind of granular control of what permission is assigned to each user. (e.g. to allow a user to create a trigger through Mongo Stitch it needs the Project Owner role).
This is a major setback as I'm giving my coworkers more access than needed.
A good solution would be to have something like the database access control in this part so we…

Project teams
Hello,
I think it would be a good idea to have team management at project level.
We have many projects and members in our Atlas account.
I'm a organization owner. The people in my organization use the Altas service. I create
a project for them and give my colleagues the project owner authorizations.Project owners can invite other members. This is good. But it's a little inconsistent that
they are not able to create groups or teams within their projects They have to manage the permissions for each member separately.We can't use organization teams, because they are located at…

Projects Organization
It would be great if we could organize the projects and not have them all at the same level of organization.
We could use this hierarchy to put rights, consult costs ...
A bit like the idea of Azure's management group or GCP's "Folder".23 votes -
Allow an "Any Database" option for actions in custom roles
Much like built-in roles have the ability to target all databases/any database, it would be ideal if collection actions could also target any database. Similarly to how, when adding collection actions to a custom role, if you leave the "collection" field blank, it applies to all collections in the specified DB, it would be great if you could leave the "database" field blank too (or add an "any database" option) and have the actions associated with the role be allowed on any database.
This feature gap creates unnecessary maintenance overhead for clusters with large numbers of databases. This is particularly…

Support for User Groups with Separate Authentication Configurations
Currently Atlas only uses a single (flat) user group which only allows for 1 type of authentication per Organization.
However if Federated Authentication is enabled, the authentication mechanism in Atlas is bypassed for the IdP based on the domain name of the user and the configuration of Atlas Authentication.
This causes a problem if there are multiple groups of users who all share a domain name, some of whom are registered in an IdP, and some of whom are not registered in an IdP (for example users in 2 divisions of the same company).
In this scenario, users who are…

Make session timeout in Atlas UI configurable
Session timeout value in Atlas UI defaults at 12h. Allow it to be configurable per Project or Organization, with the minimum value being 15 minutes. All Atlas users within an organization that have been idle for the duration of the configured session timeout should be automatically logged out.

More Fine-Grained Custom Roles
Our developers need to access databases from home or an office location from time to time.
They are not Project Owners and should not have broad sweeping administrative privileges over the databases.
In some cases they may be outsource workers who would only have read-only views on the data.
However, they do need to be able to connect to the databases.
Currently, you need a Project Owner role to be able to add an IP address to the whitelist and allow remote access.
Please add the ability to create custom roles for Atlas users, which would enable us to create…14 votes -
Expose the killOp() action when creating custom roles in Atlas UI
It would be nice to have the
killOp()
action exposed when creating a custom role in Atlas.I also think it would make sense to grant this action to the
atlasAdmin
role, but at a minimum I feel that Project Owners should be able to create a custom role that is allowed to kill ops that were initiated by other database users.14 votes -
Allow Pending Users to be Added to a Team
When trying to implement Atlas infrastructure for Organization/Project users, the Teams functionality is useless unless we can add pending users to a Team. Right now, if a new user doesn't login for two weeks, we can't assign them to a Team until two weeks after the implementation was supposed to be configured.

Migrate users and roles with cluster data
It would be great to be able to transfer users with their credentials and permissions from our on-premises deployment to Atlas during migration to avoid having to recreate those users using the Atlas interface or API.

Authentification on Azure (IAM)
Hello,
We absolutely need a more modern authentication method than using LDAPS to authenticate users against the MongoDB databases that we deploy with Atlas. When will we see a modern authentication service at this level? Ideally, we want cloud functionality equivalent to AWS IAM but on Azure.

Via API call invite existing atlas user & assigne them to project & teams
in are organization we want user to have a self serve service that allow them to create project, cluster ,etc ...
for now we can only automate half of the process, because we need the web UI to invite user & wait that they approve the invitation before assigning them to project.
It would be great than we could, via API call, invite user & assign them to project or team without having to use manual process & wait for user to acknowledge the invitation
thanks

Allow me to stay logged in for a long period of time
I access Mongo Cloud / Atlas very frequently. However, almost every day I need to re-login using my Google account. It doesn't seem to "remember" my session.
I would love if I can extend the default, and let me (and other members) stay logged in for a longer period of time.9 votes -
Improve 2FA and auth management
Right now, there is no way to require Google auth or to require 2FA. The only way to enforce 2FA for a team is to check the team mangagement page. However, since some users may have only used Google auth to login, they will show up in this view as not having 2FA, creating auditing headaches. Please
- indicate if a user does not have 2fa because they do not have a password vs just not having 2fa
- ideally, add the ability to require 2fa and/or Google auth for all team members9 votes -

Allow Atlas User Data Access Permissions to be configured on a per-database/collection basis
Similarly to how database user data access permissions can be configured on a per-database or per-collection basis, it would be ideal if Atlas user data access permissions (as they apply to Data Explorer) could be configured on a more granular basis as well.

More granular user privileges for Database User in same project
When having several clusters in the same project, it would be nice if we could configure different privileges to different clusters for the same user credentials.
Like in the following example
Name | Cluster1 | Cluster2 | Cluster3 | Cluster4
User1 | R/W | R | R | R/W
User2 | R | R/W | R | RCurrently it's not possible to specify different privileges on the cluster level.

Manage Database Access and Network access
I would like to give colleagues the ability to manage Database Access and Network access for a project without giving the the project owner role.
A way to provide more granular access in Atlas would be nice
