  1. Smart Index Optimization for Aggregation Queries in Compass

    When building aggregation pipelines in Compass, sometimes queries can slow down if they’re missing the right indexes or opt out.

    1. Creating Temporary Indexes Automatically: If the aggregation query doesn’t have an optimal index, Compass will automatically build a temporary one just for that specific operation.
    2. Suggesting Permanent Indexes: After running the aggregation with the temporary index, Compass will notify you and suggest saving the index permanently if it’s likely to be useful for future queries. Maybe even showing time saved with the index or without.

  3. search by dbname > collectionname

    While searching for a collection and if the connected account have multiple dbs with same schema its hard to search for specific db collection.

    My proposed solution is when we search using > i.e. dbname> collection name .
    It should show collections in specific db only. not in all the dbs.

    for example

  4. Tab to accept suggestion

    I REALLY hate that as I insert my query and if I press Enter, the top suggestion that popped up is selected. It completely replaces the query I just built and 95% of the time, it's not the same query. You should require me to tab or arrow down to select the suggestion that is right for me, if I want to use the suggestion at all.

  6. Disable the proxy pane for standard user to be allowed to manipulate the settings

    There should be an option for admins to either enter:

    A- Set to a manual
    b- none
    c- system proxy

    so its enforced - rather than grant a standard user that concept of tampering with settings
    in the config file mongodb-compass.conf so that it is enforced on machines -- and most importantly managed

  7. Disable query propositions

    Have a setting to turn off the suggestions that appears when you type a Query.
    This feature can also be completely removed, in my opinion. If i want to execute an old query i go on history tab and select it.
    The 99% of time the automatic suggestions are a loss of time.

  8. All Processing in Memory

    Let's say there are calculations that involve the processor (ALU Arithmetic and Logical Operations):
    I can ensure there are no context switching between memory and processor whilst all calculations that involve ALU will be done in memory.

  9. Refresh button on the database

    Add a refresh button beside the + and >-

  11. Recyle Bin

    There should be a Recycle Bin in Compass which will store deleted data or collections so that they can be restored if deleted accidently.

  12. Support for Binary.createFromHexString in filter

    It should be possible to create Binary objects from hex in the filter, like it is supported in the mongo shell already.

    So far Binary objects can only be created from base64, so a manual conversion from hex to base64 is required.

    Such as: {field: Binary.createFromHexString("0123456789abcdef")}

  13. Improvement Suggestion for Filtering Databases in MongoDB Compass

    Hello MongoDB Compass Team,

    Thank you for the excellent tool! I have a suggestion that I believe would enhance the user experience, particularly when managing multiple databases.

    Currently, when connecting to a server with multiple databases, it can be challenging to navigate if only a few specific databases are actively used. It would be incredibly helpful if there was an option to filter or hide certain databases in the connection view, allowing users to focus on just the databases they work with most frequently.

    Thank you for considering this suggestion, and keep up the great work!

  14. Copy many documents at once as JSON

    I'd like to be able to copy many documents at once n a JSON format. Today, I need to export all output documents for my aggregation pipeline or my query, or I need to manually copy multiple documents one-at-a-time. Ideally, I could copy many documents at the same time to my clipboard without needing to export to a separate file.

  15. Utilize ESC key when editing an document to cancel edit.

    Currently you are forced to use the cancel button when editing an document in the compass app on mac. Would be nice if the esc key can cancel the edit.

  16. Rename tabs

    I would like the ability to open multiple tabs and rename them. Currently, the tabs are rendered as

    Documents
    <tabel_name.collection_name>

    Ideally, I could change the tab heading so that it's easier to navigate between the tabs

  18. Dynamic credential refresh

    MongoDb Compass requires a full restart when environment variables or connection credentials (connection strting, username, password) are changed. This is inefficient for users working in dynamic environments where credentials change frequently. ex: Rotating secrets or Temporary access token.
    There should be a way to refresh those credentials either by rereading the env variables or having a button or a configuration that would be available to do that. This is moslty for AWS, I can start mongo compass from cli and it will use my env variables but there is no way for me to refresh it for mongodb.

  20. Move the MongoDB shell to the bottom of any open tab

    It is necessary to return the MongoDB shell to the bottom-right corner while viewing collections and databases, as these new changes with writing commands in a new tab significantly affect my productivity and efficiency, forcing me to constantly switch between tabs to view and modify data!
