  1. Prompt for password

    As a security conscious user, I do not want to store my password in Compass, and would prefer to have Compass prompt me for my password when it's blank in the connection manager. This way I can avoid multiple mouse clicks to drill into where I need to enter the password, or sometimes I forget that I need to do that because every other DB tool I've used will prompt.

  5. AWS IAM in Compass is MFA protected & uses shortly expiring tokens

    AWS IAM auth in Compass should be a password/token-copypaste-less, MFA-protected experience that uses shortly-expiring tokens, invisibly to the user. Said differently, selecting AWS IAM creds should prompt me with an { AWS config, MFA challenge } form/flow, and not an {{{ accessKeyId, secretAccessKey, sessionToken }}} form as it does today.

  6. Add a DISCONNECT option to the 3 dots dropdown menu when a connection is active

    At the moment, there is no obvious way to disconnect from your connection to connect to another database, and you have to go through the top level Connect menu, which is quite cumbersome.

  7. Allow connections to Atlas from Compass using SAML/SSO

    When using Atlas with SAML (e.g. Okta, AzureAD) there is no (obvious) way to get access to the Atlas Cluster from Compass. Following the Compass instructions to get the username/connection string from Atlas shows me the shared SAML user - whom I cannot and should never get the password for - and no way to get the token or whatever it is that SAML is doing under the hood.

    Can Compass please have a SAML option added - open a browser to the SSO provider and capture what it needs from there?

  9. Recognize $HOME/.ssh/config file in SSH bastion / jump box

    Configured hostnames are not read from the file causing the user to have to re-input the same jumpbox information per connection.

    The work around is to define jumpbox destinations on the user's /etc/hosts file but preference is to have Compass respect the default SSH config file.

  11. Need "Inactive" sessions "Terminated" connected via Compass to MongoDB

    Need "Inactive" sessions "Terminated" which have been connected via Compass to MongoDB and idle for more than x minutes. This feature is not full available. As per MongoDB support maxIdleTimeMS -- "Compass supports that option but please note that this won't close the session, will only collect idle connections in the pool and wouldn't really be noticed on the user end.
    For you to be aware, this request was already discussed internally as a missing option so it would be good if you can provide some additional feedback in our official website for our Product managers to consider."

  13. Compass: Set custom names for connections

    When having many projects and connections saved in Compass, assign a custom name would be easier to identify the connection we want connect to.

  14. database access needs to be more granular

    I need the ability to restrict access to individual databases and /or clusters, for both build in and custom permissions and roles.

    You have boxes for databases and collections; just add one for clusters too.

  15. Provide an UI option to limit Compass to a single database connection by setting the maxPoolSize to 1 in the driver

    There are some authentication setups in the field that require customers to approve every attempt to use their external credentials (such as LDAP passwords) via manual interaction with an MFA vendor's app (a good example would be Okta Verify).

    When the driver has a connection pool greater than 1 (the current default is 10), it may spawn additional connections to the database without letting the customer know. This may result in authentication failures for the various commands - if the customer misses the MFA prompt on their device.

    The current solution is to set the maxPoolSize=1 option in the connection…

  16. Add OpenSSH config and auth agent support

    I have to use a vpn which forwards into a proxy to connect to my mongo cluster.

    My PC => VPN => Bastion Host => Mongo Cluster

    This is very easy to do using OpenSSH configs in other tools but compass does not support this option.

  17. real time connectivity metrics

    Hello,

    in order to perform more accurate analysis, it would be helpful if the "RealTime" section is filled with more information.

    For example, the possibility to track from where which connection originates, at time X ( preferably in the past).

    Best regards

  18. Improve Compass experience for working with lots of Atlas Clusters

    Currently it's quite a lot of work to onboard Atlas Clusters especially if you have a lot. We have 80+. It would be a great if there was an easier way to create Cluster connections within Compass, whether that be an export/import process or you just connect it to Atlas and it works it all out via an API.

    To further support this it would also be great to set username/password details and preferences like secondary at root or group level so that clusters under root or group can inherit those credentials rather than filling in for each connection

  19. Have option to make "Fill in connection fields individually" view the default upon start up

    Currently, MongoDB Compass defaults to showing the "Paste connection string" view upon startup. The full connection string is shown, meaning that if you have any saved favorites, the username and password will be immediately visible upon the screen. This seems like a security risk, especially for use in public settings.

    Additionally, if your saved favorite includes SSH tunneling settings, these settings will not be applied if you try to connect to the database from the "Paste connection string" view, leading to connection failure. You must switch to the "Fill in connection fields individually" view before hitting Connect for the SSH…

  20. Folders/groups for favorites

    Compass users with many deployments need the ability to:

    • reorder favorites, possibly based on usage patterns, as well as,
    • organize favorites into folders.

    These features will allow users to efficiently access important connection favorites, even when there are a large number of deployments present.
