MongoDB registrations should be straightforward.

General Tab

Tab Coloring

To Identify Server Environments, whether it is a Production, Development, or Test, use the Tab Color feature :

• Locate the Server in the Server Browser.
• Right-click the Server - A Popup Menu appears.
• Click the Item which displays Server Properties.
• Based on the Server Type, you can edit the Tab Color option to identify your environments.

Using Filters Options in Registration (Filter Tab)

Edit the Server Properties, to use FILTER options for a Server in Aqua Data Studio:

• Locate the Server in the Server Browser.
• Right-click the Server - A Popup Menu appears.
• Click the Item which displays Server Properties.
• Go to the Filter Tab and make changes in the Options.

• Filter Databases: Allows the user to specify the main schema browser filter for databases, on whether to include or exclude all.
• Include Databases: A list of databases to include after the main filter is applied.
• Exclude Databases: A list of databases to exclude after the main filter is applied.

• Filter Objects: Allows the user to specify the main schema browser filter for object types, on whether to include or exclude all.
• Include Objects: A list of objects to include after the main filter is applied.
• Exclude Objects: A list of objects to exclude after the main filter is applied.

Features

• You can Create, Edit or Delete Object folders. Default folders are Collections, Indexes, Roles, and Users.
• Sometimes you would like to view only specific database collections. Use options to INCLUDE or EXCLUDE all databases and folders.
• Enter the database or folder name in the specified text area and click Save. The current Connection will be terminated. Reconnect to see the changes.
• Filters are case-sensitive.
• Filter databases work on the list of databases inside the Databases folder.
• Filter folders work on the list of folders inside a particular database. Example folders: Collections, Indexes, Roles, and Users.
• Object folder filter works on an individual folder inside a particular database. The user can define filters for each of the Collections, Indexes, Roles, Users.

Filter Examples:

If you want to show all collections in the Local database, excluding the ones with prefix SURVEY, then you will need to change your main filter to Include All and secondary filter to -SURVEY*. Note the "-" in front of the SURVEY pattern. Also, note that the filter pattern is case-sensitive.

In the following image, we have set the filter to exclude all collections in the Local database. Collections that are prefixed with SURVEY are included. This is similar to the above example where all databases, except the local database, are excluded. Then, there is an Object Folder filter on the Collections folder, which excludes everything except those that start with SURVEY.
