  1. Missing charts features

    The charts inside mongodb are quiet nice but lacks some basic features to be able to setup a environment to create, test and deploy charts from tests to production. Also it is not possible to proper support localization.

    It is not possible to develop charts to allow proper development, testing and deploy.
    Those features are a must to really work in a proper way:

    Import/Export:

    Severity: HIGH

    • The current export does not include the charts view. It should contain the charts view (including its aggregation pipeline)
    • Import should then allow create/override the charts view

    Localization:

    Severity: HIGH

    • Allow define locales…

  2. Yellow triangle icon for "drop index" and other caution messages

    In MongoDB Compass, when I use the Drop Index functionality you get when clicking the "trash can" icon next to an index in the Indexes list on a collection, it shows a red "!" triangle icon in the upper left. That icon is used here to mean "Caution! You are about to do something dangerous!", as confirmed in Support case https://support.mongodb.com/case/01122132.

    I think it's more conventional to use red icons, especially "!" or triangles like this, to indicate that an error has occurred, and warnings or cautions are more conventionally indicated in yellow. (There's probably some UI/UX documents or…

    Mandarin Chinese

  4. Do not load collection data by default (new setting)

    When selecting a collection, Compass currently loads data for that collection. I would like there to be a setting that says that no data is loaded until I click Find.

    Why?
    - because some default data loading takes a looong time (>30s) and clicking Stop doesn't give the user back control (fixing this might be another way to resolve this issue)
    - almost always the data loaded by default is not relevant to my task
    - almost always I want to enter a specific query first and then hit search
    - in the rare cases where I just want to…

  7. I documents section to have mode to view and edit DbRef content instead of DbRef Objects.

    I would like to have a mode to view and edit DbRef content, in the same way as the DRef Object fields are edited now. The idea is to see in the documents section all data linked. See and edit the data in a comfortable casual way.

  9. Allow following a referenced ObjectID to the associated document

    I have documents that reference other documents in other collections using the ObjectId. It would be really helpful if I could follow these references in Compass to the associated document.

    For example, if I find a specific document by using the standard Filter/Find mechanism in Compass. From there I see that some of the fields in a given document reference another ObjectID (potentially in a different collection)

    It would be nice to have an available action (maybe an action icon?) that would take me to the related document.

    Currently I have to copy the desired object ID, switch to the…

  10. Option to always show the Project, Sort and Collation options

    Every new tab always has the Project, Sort and Collation options hidden by default, with only the Filter input displayed. You have to click "more options" to show the additional controls.

    I understand the space-saving rationale of this, but I use the sort option for easily 90% of queries I run, which makes clicking the 'more options' every time a bit of unnecessary friction.

    Maybe you could provide an option in settings to "always show all query options"? Or remember the last expanded/contracted state, and default to opening all new tabs in the same state?

  12. Tabs disappear when dropping a view

    Regression in v1.36.2: when dropping a view (and probably a collection, I didn't check) that was an open tab, all open tabs disappear. Then they reappear if you select a collection (or view) that was opened previously. If another collection (or view) is selected, then previously opened tabs will disappear in favor to the new selection

  20. visual feedback on array / object size in document preview

    Could we have a visuel feedback in document preview (Documents, Aggregation) for the array / objects size? It could be between parenthesis next to the "Object"/"Array" label => Array(5) for example

    The basic need was to identify quickly which array/object are empty: could start by removing the ability to expand by removing the ">" in front of the field...
