    The Intercom messenger bubble is now hidden.

    We will use the Intercom functionality about once per quarter ask for feedback if users opted in but aside for that, the messenger remains hidden.

  3. Support for Client Side Field Level Encryption

    Currently, there is no way to provide Client Side Field Level Encryption options inside of MongoDB Compass. We'd like to be able to provide AWS KMS details to Compass and have it decrypt read values if the user provides the correct credentials to access the Master key.

    The Node driver which Compass is built on seems to be supported so having a way to provide the AWS KMS creds needed inside of Compass would be very helpful for us.

  5. Touching a collection on the left hand side, wipes out your work in aggregations with no warning

    Touching a collection on the left hand side, wipes out your work in aggregations with no warning

    When using aggregations and you are busy with your pipeline(s)

    If you left click on any of the collections on the left panel, 

    It wipes out your work on the aggregations (no warnings at all)

    [Yet when we paste in an exported version of the pipeline it gives a warning]

    This makes it hard to teach people how to use aggregations, as they have to treat the left hand panel like a land mine (and all they wanted to do was to look…

  6. Open collections in new tab if modifications were made in the current tab

    Here's my workflow:
    - I open a collection
    - I then run some filters to check some entries
    - I want to check something in another collection, so I click on the relevant collection in the sidebar
    - My tab was overriden and I lost my filter!
    It should have opened a new tab, because I actually interracted with the previous tab.

    Thank you for sharing this feedback! We're excited to announce that we released a change in Compass v1.43.3 that prevents modified tabs from being closed by accident.

  7. Make it load faster

    Nobody cares about how many plugins are still loading. Show the connection screen at least and load the plugins in the background. Also, by default have no plugins because why should I wait for plugins to load that I don't use? Also load plugins in parallel.

  8. can you allow "_id" Field clipboard copy

    Hello!
    I want to use "find" query using "_id" field.
    But I cant copy my doc's _id field.
    Mongo's docs often have other doc's _id for reference field.
    But At Compass, cant copy _id field.
    So difficult to find by _id.
    Can you allow copy _id field?
    Thank you!

  11. 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.

    A little late to update the portal, but the copy button started including whitespace to enabling pasting pretty print formatted JSON a long time ago. I hope that the users who upvoted this item have found that improvement to be helpful! Please let us know if you have any more feedback.

  12. Ability to disable plugins

    I don't use a bunch of the plugins that ship by default with Compass, and I don't see any way to disable them in the UI. Loading all of them can be quite slow.

    Most of the plugins are necessary for Compass to function correctly and it’s a bit difficult to support enabling and disabling them. However, plugins are now bundled differently and they don’t slow down Compass at startup anymore.

  13. Accurately save queries

    When I write a query that has a $regex and then try to favorite/save that query, Compass changes the favorited query. For example, this simple query returns results:
    {
    customerNumber: {
    $regex: "MSHA1",
    },
    _partitionKey: { $ne: "INACTIVE" }
    }

    However, if I then check my query history to so I can favorite it, my history shows this query that returns no results:
    {
    customerNumber: {
    pattern: 'MSHA1',
    options: ''
    },
    _partitionKey: {
    $ne: 'INACTIVE'
    }
    }

  14. Indent Collection on Left Panel

    After the layout update in 1.34.1, it is harder to tell what is the parent db and what the collections are. It would be helpful to have the collections indented.

  15. Current hard-coded font puts a lot of strain on the eyes and hard to use

    I just updated Compass to v1.33.0 from 1.23.0 version and immediately got blindsided that you switched font to serif, which is much harder to read, even though the font itself is a bit larger.

    Zooming just a little bit in v1.23.0 makes it very comfortable to work with, but zooming in on serif font in v1.33.0 makes it huge and the whole app is less usable for me.

    After struggling for a bit, I uninstalled v1.33.0 and installed back v1.23.0. So far it works, so I will keep using it for the time being.

    I attached both UI screenshots at…

  16. Add an action to the contextual menu of the view to copy the pipeline to the clipboard.

    Currently, we don't have an easy way to save the aggregation pipeline steps used to create a view. Also, after deleting a collection, the view aggregation steps are no longer visible. We would like an option to allow saving aggregation pipeline steps for this use case.

  17. Inline or popout editor for large text fields

    Sometimes a large amount of textual data is stored in a single field, and often times this needs to edited in development. If there was a way to edit a field in at least a multi-line text area, this would be made much easier.

  18. Remember the expanded state of object when coming back to a tab

    1. Run a query that returns a document with subdocuments.
    2. Click the ">" to expand some of the subdocuments.
    3. Open a new tab
    4. Come back to the previous tab.

    Notice how all expanded subdocuments were closed. This is pretty annoying if you need to, for example, go through array items and run queries in the other tab based on their values.

  19. The Feedback button obfuscates the Delete confirmation button for the last record on the screen

    Add extra space to the bottom of the record view so that I can scroll the last record above the Feedback button to more easily access the Delete button.
