Does Metabase support MongoDB Views?

Get Help
1

Hi,
I am attempting to use MongoDB Views to pre-format data for Metabase, but the View does not appear in the collection list in Metabase, even after a resync.

Does Metabase support Mongo Views? If so, how do I get them to show up?

I assumed Views would work as they appear in the mongo driver's getCollectionInfos command and generally operate like "regular" collection. So wondering if I'm doing something incorrectly.

Thanks

Hi @bradstewart
Yes, views are supported. Note the wording conflict "collections", which means "folders" in Metabase, whereas Mongo collections are seen as "tables" in Metabase.

Got it, thank you. It looks like the Mongo View did appear as a Metabase Table some time overnight, so good to go. Thanks for the help.
