MongoDB

Overview

The MongoDB connector lets you connect to a MongoDB deployment using a standard MongoDB connection string.

Setup

1. Ensure your MongoDB instance is reachable from the connector runtime (network/VPC/firewall rules).
2. Create or choose a MongoDB user with permission to connect and run basic commands (at minimum, the ability to run ping against the admin database).
3. Copy your MongoDB connection string (URI).

Authentication

This connector authenticates using a MongoDB connection string.

Connection string

Provide a MongoDB URI in the standard format, for example:

• Username/password:
  • mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:27017/?authSource=admin
• SRV (Atlas):
  • mongodb+srv://USERNAME:PASSWORD@CLUSTER_HOST/?retryWrites=true&w=majority

The connector validates credentials by connecting and issuing a ping command against the admin database.

Configuration

Field	Type	Required	Description
