  1. View sub collections as dropdowns or directories and adding a search feature for collections

    I think MongoDB Compass is an incredibly powerful software using which one can do easy queries and manipulations to data. I also like the UI - its clutter free and easy to use.

    I want to request an additional feature in Compass which isn’t currently there:

    Viewing sub collections as dropdowns or directories(Tree structure)

    Generally, sub collections are namespaced using a period(.) and they make sense since the data becomes easy to organise and work with.

    Say we have nx.ny.na.nb…(n - nodes, x y a and b are integers) type collections

    1. If only a single final collection exists under a…

  2. Cast _id: number to string

    Every time I type { _id: 12345 } in the Filter, I get zero results, until I realize that I forgot the quotes. Could Compass automatically convert numeric _id values to strings before running the query?

  5. Ability to export or move database between localhost and cloud

    Exporting collections one by one, manually, is so much to do in 2020

  8. SQL to Aggregation framework converter

    The intent would be to run SQL queries directly on MongoDB Compass or convert them to aggregations

  9. Inserting images to MongoDB Compass so we can manually insert images without using api or something

    Sorry for being new here.

    Think I have an idea to enable Compass to insert images manually. Thanks!

  10. As a developer using extended JSON strict mode queries, I need Compass to also support queries in strict mode

    Compass should support extended JSON strict mode queries in queries on the Documents, Schema and Explain Plan tabs.

    As an example, the error message in Compass 1.14.7 for an "$oid" query is:

    unknown operator: $oid

  11. To be able to show images contained in document fields

    It would be great to see the images when a field contains it.

    In the attached file, would show in place of the binary field "Imagen".

  12. How can't you improve it. It's shocking

    Improve it. It's shocking! How about a shell and an export window that works and maybe a gui that can stay unfrozen for more than an hour or two.

  14. Support discovering deployment topology

    It appears that Compass has no provision to discover the topology of deployment, and instead it requires the user to specify replica set name in order to connect to a replica set.

    This was mentioned on SO here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61135528/mongodb-compass-forces-me-to-enter-replica-set-name-when-trying-to-connect-to-my/61135731#61135731

    For example when I connected to mongodb://localhost:27020 where the node at 27020 is a secondary, I received this message:

    An error occurred while loading navigation: 'not master and slaveOk=false': It is recommended to change your read preference in the connection dialog to Primary Preferred or Secondary Preferred or provide a replica set name for a full topology connection.

    As a user…

  15. Compass got stack without errors info (over 10 min)

    Better error reporting for the user. Importing a json (a valid file) puts the compass in an infinity loop without any error info for the user what is wrong. Values are not stored. App doing importing over 10 min simple file structure, I stoped on end the process.
    I found on end that json should to be in collection format (just with {} brackets). I added standard content with [] (example of the file is below). Improve validation.

    I used 1.21.1 (stable) version of mongodb compass for mac

    "title": "Specification by Example",
    "isbn": "1617290084",
    "pageCount": 0,

  16. SSL - Allow access to Trusted Root Certification Authorities in Windows

    Allow Compass to access the Trusted Root Certification Authorities Certificate Store in Windows to be able to connect via SSL with a system-wide root CA file (without explicitly specifying the CA file).

  18. Copy as "normal" JSON

    Would be nice to have ability to copy data in mongo shell compatible format. NOT like this:
    {"id":{"$oid":"58a1b4496711f017c2be2c86"},"reportedBy": "$oid":"589b5cddb8843f642c09eecd"},"createdAt":{"$date":"2017-02-13T13:27:37.594Z"}}
    But like this:
    ```
    { "
    id" : ObjectId("58a1b4496711f017c2be2c86"), "createdAt": ISODate("2017-02-13T13:27:37.594Z")}
    ```

  20. security

    Allow an organization to force users to use their access manager accounts as opposed to database accounts to access Compass or from the Shell. Otherwise, users have to have two accounts or we end up with a shared database user account and create a potential security hole.
