  1. Allow the ability to test Atlas Search locally

    We need text search to "somehow" work locally and ci.

    We've a multiregional team and development has to continue if there are internet problems in one of our offices.

    Our workflow consists of :

    • unitTest using in-memory-mongodb

    • local testing, using the developers local mongo instance

    • test env testing with a QA team (using atlas, but <30m)

    • production launch

    With the current feature set, the first time we can test a feature is on production. Even if low-tier availability was there the other two issues are blockers as we won't just ditch TDD for textSearch.

  2. Allow autocomplete search on multiple fields using a wildcard path or by specifying multiple fields in the path

    Currently, (unlike the text operator) the autocomplete operator does not accept a path which is an array of field names. Also, a wildcard path ("path": {"wildcard": "*"}) cannot be specified for an autocomplete query. Therefore, the only way to perform an autocomplete search on multiple fields is by using the compound operator.

    This is a feature request to allow autocomplete search on multiple fields by using a wildcard path or by accepting an array of multiple fields in the path.

    We’ve heard your feedback loud and clear. We are starting this work now.

    Thanks for the feedback. We will update you when it is released very soon. Let us know if you have any questions. :-)

  3. Allow $search to be a later stage in the aggregation pipeline

    Currently $search is required to be the first stage in the aggregation pipeline. It would be more intuitive if we could use after other operators, such as $match.

  5. Allow Atlas Search indexes to be restored across clusters

    Currently, when an Atlas backup snapshot from one environment is restored to another environment, it does not transfer or replicate the Atlas Search indexes from the source cluster to the destination cluster. As a result, after the snapshot is restored, the Atlas Search indexes have to be manually created on the collections in the destination cluster.

    This is a request for a functionality that will allow a snapshot-restore from one cluster to another to also replicate the Atlas Search indexes from the source cluster to the destination cluster.

  6. Faster Sorting with Atlas Search

    I am looking to achieve a faster sort when using Atlas Search.

    Please comment if you tried Stored Source Fields and it did not meet the performance you were looking for.

    Stored Source Fields Docs:

    Atlas Search facet and count are in preview. The features and the corresponding documentation may change at any time in the preview stage.


    The Atlas Search $searchMeta stage is not available on shared clusters. $searchMeta is available only on dedicated clusters.


    facet is only available on Atlas clusters running one of the following versions:

    • MongoDB 4.4.11 or later
    • MongoDB 5.0.4 or later


    You can't run facet queries with Explain.


    This ticket will be marked as complete when Facet is available on Sharded clusters. 

  8. Support for nested datatype search

    It appears that Atlas Search does not yet support nested documents in arrays like MongoDB

  10. Allow indexing and querying for null datatype in Atlas Search

    The null datatype is not amongst the datatypes that Atlas Search supports at this time. As a result, if the use-case is to perform a text search on some fields and perform an equality/inequality check on other field(s) to see if it is/isn't null, then we need to have a $match stage following the $search stage, which is detrimental to the query performance as documented here. This is an enhancement request to allow indexing and querying for null datatype in Atlas Search, to avoid the above scenario.

  11. Support Partial Indexing

    We have a large collection but would only like to index the most recent entries, which would reduce the amount of space and resources it would take to index and query.

  14. Target $search queries to specific shards

    Currently, sharded $search queries are scatter-gather queries and they cannot be targeted to specific shards. This is an enhancement request to target $search queries to specific shards, and thereby make them more efficient/performant.

  16. Allow autocomplete to work with email addresses.

    At the moment, an autocomplete index does not tokenize the "@" in email addresses. So when using an autocomplete search on an email address field, the search breaks as soon as the "@" is entered.

    I started a thread in the community about this very issue.

    This work has started and I will inform the team when this feature is released. It’s coming soon.

  17. Atlas search to provide the ability to query number (long/double) fields

    When querying mongo using atlas search, today it requires that the query parameter be a string. Ideally, I would like to be able to also search using numbers. Our stakeholders want the ability to type into a dropdown select field , type a number, and have it pull back a list of data.

    Today, we are using atlas search to query against a multiple set of fields, and pull back the most relevant results. It would be nice to include number fields as part of our index in order to allow those same stakeholder the ability to query by the…

  18. Metric for Displaying Search Index Consistency Lag

    I would like a metric that shows me what the latency is between the state of the MongoDB collection and the Search index in Atlas.

    The difference between the optime of the collection and the optime of the Search index would be the latency. Please consider exposing this metric.

    We heard you loud and clear! This work has been started, though it is not so simple. I will update the group when it is complete and share a bit of instructions on how to interpret the metrics in case anything is unclear. Thank you all for being so vocal about the future of your product.

    Please don’t hesitate with any questions. Keep in mind, the search index should be largely up to date with the database as we are really close by. :-)

  19. support for the storage and high speed search of dense vectors (i.e. word embeddings)

    One feature I would like to see in mongoDB is the support for the storage and high speed search of dense vectors (i.e. word embeddings). This feature, in combination with full text search, would bring mongoDB within parity with Elasticsearch and help us simplify our architectures for these types of solutions.

  20. geoWithin metadata reporting searchDistance

    Using geoWithin in the $search aggregation pipeline lets me use the search indexes, but it doesn't let me see the distance. I'd love to have a distanceField or perhaps a $meta that reports searchDistance similar to the one we have for searchScore
