  2. Re-open tab closed by accident

    Similar to Cmd+Shift+T (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+T (Win), re-open tab(s) that was closed.

    I often close tabs by accident when I drag the mouse to the tab and click to activate it and the cursor was on top of the X and close the tab instead. Very frustrating. The key binding can even be the same as the browsers, to keep it more familiar.

  3. Additional Connection Colors

    I believe the addition of more colors to the Connections would be really helpful, we currently have a limited amount of colors. Maybe a color picker or at least a wider variety of colors would be simple to implement yet really useful.

  4. display Object value

    Hi

    My entities have an attributes property, which is an array of object.
    When looking for a specific object in the array in Compass, it's sometimes hard to find it, having to expand each object one by one.

    Is it possible to display the object content directly in the object's parent row ?
    e.g. displaying Object[name: "code", value: "10v30"]

    This would avoid having to expand each parent object to see its content.

    Best regards
    Mathias

  5. Let us connect to a database instance without specifying the port

    Our team runs Mongo in Docker containers. And since we run many Docker containers, which means multiple MongoDB instances on a single machine, we assign random ports to each instance.

    Then we put an Nginx reverse proxy in front of each instance. We provide certificates in the Nginx layer through Let's Encrypt and offer subdomains for each instance. So, for example:

    https://db.basket.com = port 36150
    https://db.cards.info = port 42755
    https://db.some-long-domain.tld = port 55490

    And so on.

    There are two problems here:

    1- Those ports are assigned dynamically on any container reload/restart, thus they are truly ephemeral and we can't memorize…

  6. credentials

    Add an option to not use any special mechanism (gnome keyring, ...) to store passwords

    I'm on bluefin and tearing my hair each time I reopen compass and need to readd the password to all the connections (especially with that popup that warns you when editing the connection string even though the password is blank)

  7. Working with a Single Database

    Improve database navigation by temporarily hiding other databases on the server. When searching for a collection, see only results from the selected database, reducing clutter and enhancing workflow efficiency.

  8. guids as strings

    Get with the 21st century and give us a way to see guids as strings instead of binary. Other mongo browsers do this.

  9. compass

    Dear MongoDB Team,

    I'm writing to provide feedback about MongoDB Compass interface changes. As a student learning MongoDB with 20+ classmates, we've noticed significant usability differences between versions.

    Our Experience:
    - We find MongoDB Compass version 1.43 (older version) more user-friendly than the current updated version
    - The frontend/UI design was more intuitive and practical for learning purposes
    - Specifically, the mongosh integration and button layout made database operations more accessible for beginners

    Why the older version worked better for us:
    1. More intuitive button placement and navigation
    2. Better integration between GUI and mongosh commands
    3. Clearer visual hierarchy…

  10. Allow per-instance read-only databases in MongoDB

    Hello MongoDB team,

    I manage several isolated MongoDB instances for different environments (dev, preprod, prod). In some cases, I would like to make an entire database read-only to prevent accidental writes (e.g., for preproduction).

    Currently, MongoDB only supports read-only at the instance level (with --readOnly or similar mechanisms), but there is no way to set a specific database as read-only.

    Feature Request:

    Add a supported way to start a single MongoDB instance in read-only mode, regardless of the databases it hosts.
    Use case: allow devs/testers to read from preprod data without risking unwanted writes.

    This would help improve safety in…

  12. Allow CSV import window to dynamically resize based on Compass size

    macOS Sequioa 15.6.1
    Compass - Version 1.46.8 (1.46.8)

    When you view a collection there is the Add Data dropdown, which gives the option for Import JSON or CSV file.

    Using this allows you to upload a CSV file, which works.

    However, the import window seems to be set at a fixed height and width, so even making Compass itself larger doesn't change this.

    This makes reviewing an import CSV with a lot of columns a bit of a pain, with lots of side scrolling.

    For me at least it makes it more difficult to spot any errant "Types" that I…

  13. Make aggregate results editable

    It would be great if you could update database key / values within an aggregate result, just like you can on the Documents tab.

  15. Natural language to MQL as an API

    Multiple use cases require the ability to query the data in MongoDB using Natural language. 'AI copilot' is one such use case where the application developer wants to expose a way for the app's users to get data-backed responses from MongoDB, and the users interact with the copilot in conversational language. Examples of this include - Customer service chatbot, medical assistant, etc.

  16. Open already connected DB in new window

    If I'm already connected to one of my DBs but want to view it in a new window, I have to disconnect, then connect -> open in new window. It would be nice to be able to open a new window without extra steps.

  17. Should be able to export saved queries as well.

    The saved queries should be exported as well.
    i have saved many queries with long pipelines and complex logic which I think won`t be able to write again if somehow deleted 😅

  19. Every time open tab , replace tab & not opne new tab

    Add New- In MongoDB Compass, every time I click on a collection, it opens in a new tab, even if the same collection is already open. It would be great to have an option to prevent duplicate tabs and reuse the existing one instead. This would improve the user experience and keep the workspace organized. Please consider adding this feature. Thank you!

  20. Compass: "Report a bug" feature is itself broken. Also autocomplete is not usable.

    Going to help -> Report a Bug redirects me to this page: https://jira.mongodb.org/projects/COMPASS/summary

    Which shows a licensing error and does not let me report a bug. The irony, it burns. The error message is:

    This gadget cannot be displayed on your dashboard. This could be due to a licensing problem or an application error. If you need this gadget, contact your administrator for assistance. Otherwise, you can remove it from your dashboard.

    Also, the new feature that shows old queries is incredibly intrusive, and constantly replaces what I'm trying to type with something old and wrong. I am not always
