Via shell, I can directly connect to mongo database with this string
mongo --ssl host1,host2:port/MyDataBase...
And I land directly on the MyDataBase.
Is there a similar way to do it in Compass? I get connected to whole server and I can see all the other databases. I just want to connect to MyDataBase.
I am using the lattest version of Compass, so it may differ from your current version.
It is important the you are in the network of the server, or use a VPN connection, otherwise, it does not work.
Step 1
Step 2
Please,let me know if that works!

I'm new to MongoDB and I'm having some problems with MongoDB recently.
I'm not sure about Connect with the MongoDB Shell, Connect your application, Connect using MongoDB Compass, what's the difference?
The current demand is. I want to directly allow connection from anywhere and create a user account password to log into this database, which option should I choose?

In Connect your application tab, you get a link that you need to copy
and paste in your application you are building to connect it to the
database. Remember to replace your password and databse name.
In Connect using MongoDB Compass tab, you get a link that you need
to paste in your compass application(A desktop application that
makes your mongodb data handling so much easier). And again remember to replace
your credentials.
I'm not very fond of Mongodb shell. It's actually an extensible
command-line interface.
I'm trying to manage my MongoDB databases through the GUI interface, but I don't how to set up it correctly. At the moment I'm using docker to set up all the necessary and I'm connecting through the command
mongo --host "localhost:27017,localhost:27016".
Now, when I open MongoDB Compass, it ask me for a string of this format:
How can I format my IP correctly?
As #super said, the answer was just mongodb://localhost:27017
i installed MongoDB compass and when i try to connect with hostname localhost ,Port: 27017
i receive this error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:27017.
I also looked in Task manager and MongoDB was not running. Thank you for your help
MongoDB compass is only a client. you should install the mongo community edition (for development setup) and then use compass client to access it.
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/installation/
MongoDB compass is graphical user interface (GUI) for the actual mongoDB. That is to say, you need an actual mongoDB running in order to be able to interact with the data through the GUI.
Once you have the database install, you can start it by typing the command mongo in the shell. There after you should be able to return to mongoDB compass and view the data in you database (I should mention, I'm assuming that you're running on the default port and on your local machine).
I'm new to mongodb, and learning as i'm going. In my new team there isn't much documentation so i'm filling in gaps myself
There is mongodb set up that i finally managed to resolce access issues to and connect to with mongodb command line via the connection string below. (And based on my understanding, the community version of mongodb does not support this, i needed to use some server enterprise version which thankfully was free)
While i have minimum access to db now, it is quite a hassle to work with just the command line
mongo.exe
"mongodb://serv1.unix.me:10001,serv2.unix.me:10002,serv3.unix.me:10003/abc?replicaSet=example"
--authenticationMechanism=GSSAPI --authenticationDatabase=$external --username "user#testdomain.me.com" --password "pAssw0rd!" -ssl --sslCAFile C:\files\ca.pem
I have Robo3T - 1.3 but no matter how many times i try to apply above connection string into the robo3t connection window, i keep getting various errors.
Part of me is worried that i need to use the enterprise version of robo3t (which isn't free)
Can anyone give some advice?
I try to connect with MongoDB Compass via ssh tunnel.
It worked before but now when I do it, it always connects to my local MongoDB instance instead of my remote one. Please have a look at the pictures below which show my settings. pretty sure it was also before like this but somehow now it connect to the wrong DB. When I connect manually via ssh (using exactly those credentials) I can see that the data is different.
What am I missing here?
