MongoDB initial set up

1

Hi,

I am connecting to MongoDB in a remote server. During the process of using "Databases--> Add Database --> --->Save". Upon clicking "Save" button, metabase connects to the remote machine and tries to get a sample of all the databases and collections in the mongodb. Since I have a large number of databases and collection, Metabase crashes and I am not able to successfully load the collections.

Is there any way to mention to load only the required database / collections from the database instead of loading all the databases and collections during the initial connection set up.

Thanks in advance,
Yogalakshmi

Hi @Yogalakshmi
Limit the user privileges on Mongo, so Metabase cannot see more than what you want.
Metabase should only request the database you specify, not all.
I'm not sure what you mean by "crashes". If Metabase actually crashes, then there's stacktraces, so include those.
And include "Diagnostic Info" from Admin > Troubleshooting, and which version of MongoDB.
