  1. Always display Compass version on every screen

    Always display Compass version on every screen because silent Auto Updates are silent. Clicking Auto Update even once will start the update process.

  2. Keyboard shortcut to change DB/Collection

    It would be nice to have a Cmd/Ctrl + P or Cmd/Ctrl + K shortcut like in VS Code or Slack to quickly switch to a different collection or database without having to click around as much.

  3. Allow customers to copy a pretty print formatted json

    Currently when copying a document from MongoDB compass, the copy button will put the stringified json onto your clipboard. However, the text that is copied omits whitespace. As such, if I want to make the json more human parsable, I need to visit a website like jsonformatter, paste the document, then recopy the cleaned json doc.
    Would be nice if we could specify whether to copy w/ or w/o whitespace formatting.

  4. Respect custom roles/Specific Privileges

    Currently Compass does not respect collection privileges properly. If you limit access to a particular collection in a DBuser assigned role or specific privileges it shows you no collections.

    I have confirmed this with customer support as demonstrated in the file attached.

    This is very strange to me, and I don't know why this fairly simple functionality isn't there.

  5. Don't search for entire document set of a collection on a new tab by default

    When I want to search for documents of a collection I select the collection on the left pane and then a new tab is opened, that shows information as seen in picture big-collection.png.

    However, the problem with this default configuration is that is searches for the entire document set to display the information Displaying documents 1-20 of 1183373. The executed query is:

    {code}
    {
    "appName": "MongoDB Compass",
    "command": {
    "aggregate": "progress",
    "pipeline": [
    {
    "$match": {}
    },
    {
    "$skip": 0
    },
    {
    "$group": {
    "id": 1,
    "n": {
    "$sum": 1
    }
    }
    }
    ],
    "hint": "
    id_",…

  6. Maintain collapse state when refreshing

    Currently, if you toggled open two or three children and you click the refresh button, it collapses everything back to the root document. If you are developing a feature that edits two or three children deep, every time you test something you must refresh and open those children again. I think this is similar to https://feedback.mongodb.com/forums/924283-compass/suggestions/40564825-remember-the-expanded-state-of-object-when-coming but is focused on refreshing the same collection rather than tabs.

  8. Remove background animation during connection

    For security reasons, MongoDB Compass is running on machines in a Network Zone we connect from our own computers via RDP protocol.
    During connection time, MongoDB Compass displays a background animation which consumes huge network bandwidth and if for any reason, network between local and remote is bad, the RDP screen finally freezes and the only choice is to interrupt the connections (between local to Network Zone which breaks the one between Compass and our MongoDB servers).
    Can you remove this animation or put an option to remove it please ?

  11. Prompt to save pipeline in case Compass is closed accidentally

    It's a human tendency to forget to continuously save an authored pipeline while constructing it. We might create a large pipeline and forget to save it before closing MongoDB Compass.

    Similar, to other softwares please add a prompt to Compass in a situation when changes are not saved before closing it.

  12. App Freezes on Some Aggregation Queries

    When I accidentally write a $lookup pipeline query with non existing field name the application crashes. I think this bug is very annoying.

  13. Allow to specify options while creating Text Indexes In Compass

    Currently, you cannot specify options like "language_override" and "default_language" while creating Text Indexes in Compass. This is a feature request to allow specifying options like "language_override" and "default_language" while creating Text Indexes In Compass.

  14. Execute Raw query with query editor

    Currently there is no query editor for executing raw queries, like for batch update and batch delete. Consider to add a query editor.

  15. Ability to drill-down and easily export deeply nested arrays

    Provide the ability to drill-down and export any MongoDB array from Compass to a csv file, no matter how deeply it is stored within a document. So, one should be able to drill-down to the given array (no matter how many levels deep) in Compass, and then click "export to csv" to export only that nested array's contents to a CSV file.

  16. New Pipeline From Text tool should be more flexible

    In Compass' "Aggregations" tab users can select the option "New Pipeline From Text"

    This accepts pasting in a pipeline like:

    [
    ....
    ]

    However, it doesn't accept pasting in a pipeline with the original variable definition, like:

    var mypipeline = [
    ....
    ];

    This is an annoying paper-cut when people are pasting in a pipeline they've previously been editing/using somewhere else. For an example, see the 'var pipeline = [..];' copyable code snippet in the Practical MongoDB Aggregations book at: https://www.practical-mongodb-aggregations.com/examples/foundational/filtered-top-subset.html#aggregation-pipeline

    The tool should allow a variable definition to precede [...], where the variable can have any name and may…

  18. Enabling LUUID, NUUID in filters

    With https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/COMPASS-1083, support was added for the UUID in filters and expressions, as well as the bindata type. It would be very useful to also have direct support for NUUID and LUUID identifiers in filters, so that you don't have to do manual conversion before querying such data.

    An example query could be {uuid: NUUID('e6e71462-a5a6-4348-b4b5-22d4763462d1')}

  19. The JSON Schema export should be producing a jsonschema file that can be used immediately with schema validation

    It currently dumps a bunch of analysis information even though the menu item is "Share Schema as JSON". This file is useless for trying to harden or define a schema, even in non-mongodb tools (like validating documents match schema in our programs).

  20. i just want to refresh the current database to see the collections that may have changed

    ....but I can only refresh all the db's, and that loses the selection and I have to go find it again. There are sometimes hundreds of db's in a cluster and the list of databases is not ordered alphabetically (or otherwise that I can tell) and has no db search so its a constant exercise in scrolling to refresh the collections in a db
