  1. Triggers on DB level rather than single collections only

    Change streams support events on DB level or single collections, but triggers are limited to single collections. Which means that if we wanted to listen on changes in a generic way, we would have to setup a trigger for each collection and set them up with AWS EventBridge (and think about new triggers when new collections are generated).

    Given that the underlying tech (change streams) supports DB-level subscriptions, we would really like to see that on the UI, too.

  2. Expose secrets as value more easily

    Having many secrets and exposing each of them as a value can make the list in the values section of Atlas App Services a little overwhelming. This is unnecessary as most of the time, the name of the exposed value and the corresponding secret are the same.

    My suggestion: Make an option when adding secrets to automatically expose this secret as a value of the same name. This could be a checkbox when adding a secret in the UI. Then, in the list of values / secrets. Don't show them twice like now but maybe add a tag on each…

  3. One-way comparison of secret values

    Can we have a method that compares a value in a function against a stored secret value. The method should just return true or false to indicate whether the values matched.

    If we had this there would be no need to expose a secret through a value.

  4. Allow setting up private connection between Atlas App Services and AWS Elastic Beanstalk

    I would like to set up a private connection between my Atlas App Services app and my AWS Elastic Beanstalk instance. Basically I want my Elastic Beanstalk instance to only accept requests that are coming from one of my App Services functions. I don't want it to accept requests from anywhere else on the internet.

    I know there is a way to set up private peering between an Atlas Cluster's VPC and an AWS VPC (which I could put my Elastic Beanstalk instance inside of), but there is not currently any peering functionality for Atlas App Services.

  5. genuine environments separation

    There should be a way to truly enable running an app in development mode while still running the production mode.

    Currently Atlas App Services only enables a single state of the app
    ("no environment" / "testing" / "development" / "QA" / "production").
    If an app is currently running in production and there is a need to test new changes on the web, i.e. API requests, the app needs to return to "development" state.
    But what if the production state cannot be changed since the app serves using clients?!?!
    There is no why to bypass this except for duplicating the entire…

  6. Meaningful errors

    Descriptive errors are crucial for debugging and simply cannot be found with Atlas App Services !
    1) If an error occurs - the whole function cascade is terminated - not only the steps following the error but also the ones prior to it. i.e. if a console.log was applied on a function that should have produced information before the error - that too will disappear and will not be displayed.
    2) That is why it can take hours to find the exact location of the error this way, by trial and error.
    3) If I was clever enough to console.error…

  7. add geojson data type!

    A lot of spatial data is generated on mobile devices, but the default geospatial format (geojson) can't be synced due to nested arrays that are part of the specification. My current workaround is to save the geojson as stringified json, but this destroys our ability of using the embedded properties object and forces me to maintain a separate collection for the unpacked data, which can go out of sync. Maybe the team can just use the same simple workaround and implement the stringifying in the background and unpack transparently into just the one corresponding collection--- it would be a massive…

  8. display all functions currently using a value

    While viewing a VALUE, it would be most helpful if there could be a list of all functions currently using it.

  10. Integrate with Microsoft Sentinel SIEM

    Please provide integration with the Microsoft Azure Sentinel SIEM as a connector.
    This would allow us to ingest MongoDB audit and user data into it for security reasons.

  11. Validate permissions when saved

    When changing permissions in the UI, there is no validation if the code being entered is valid. This leads to hard-to-debug runtime errors.

    I.e. It is possible to enter something like this:

    {
      "foo": "bar"
    }
    

    With no kind of warning.

  12. Expansion of user permissions

    Currently we have developers test code in the realm ui if multiple people are needing to work on the backend as there is no current method to deploy locally (ideally how you can with AWS Lambda). As of now, you can only directly modify a realm function in the ui if you have "Owner" permissions. This is very scary to give to individual resources

  13. Allow to create and store templates for Realm's 'Sync Permissions'

    Please allow to create, store and use custom templates for 'Permissions' for a partition-based 'Sync Permission' setup. This is under the area named "Define Permissions". There are pre-built ones but no custom ones. Makes you have to keep adding in each time you make changes.

  14. Sync Permission at Object / Document Level

    Please allow Read & Write Sync Permissions to be per object (aka: Document) being processed, rather than at partition-level. Thereby allowing to use '%%root' as a Function's parameter to access the Document to allow permission for read or write per request. Also the permission would carry (deep) through for nested / embedded objects & List<>s. Further, please expose (if not available via '%%root') the Schema (at minimum the "title" property to access Object type).

  15. Headless Browser (Puppeteer)

    Most things that you can do manually in the browser can be done using Puppeteer!
    Some examples:
    Generate screenshots and PDFs of pages.
    Crawl a SPA (Single-Page Application) and generate pre-rendered content
    Automate form submission, UI testing, keyboard input, etc.

  16. data api logs needs more details: origin, raw data in payload, etc

    the data api logs are pretty useless, they need to contain the complete metadata from the api call. source ip address, headers, request body payload, etc...

  17. realm function limits should be configurable

    realm function limits should be configurable or increased, as it hinders capabilities for memory heavy tasks like encryption/decoding
    eg sha256 encryption using crypto can only perform upto 10000 iterarations while industry standards expects atleast a lakh iterations

  18. Bracket Pair Colorizer

    It would be awesome if there could be an implementation of something like VSCode's Bracket Pair Colorizer.
    It may spend a lot of time and attention to pair the start and ending of functions without a visual aid.
    Thank you very much for the consideration.

  19. easily manage single configuration file for different environments for ci/cd

    simply support environment variables expansion in database name or table name
    this way a single configuration folder can be used to configure multiple realm apps
    but each realm app will use a different database/table so the data is separated.
    an official mongodb example code from a blog post about this topic uses this expansion but talking with support they said it is not supported and that the example code is wrong.
