Need Help Connecting to Remote MongoDB Using Browser Automation Studio

[JARVIS]

Hello Forum Members,

I hope you're all doing well. I'm currently working on a project that involves automating browser tasks using Browser Automation Studio (BAS). While I have experience with BAS, I'm facing a challenge that I believe some of you might have encountered before.

In my project, I need to establish a connection to a remote MongoDB database using Browser Automation Studio. However, I'm unsure about the proper format and steps required to achieve this. I've searched through the BAS documentation and online resources, but I couldn't find specific information on how to setup Remote MongoDB connection.

Has anyone successfully connected to a remote MongoDB using BAS? If so, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could share your insights or provide guidance:

• Any specific syntax or configuration required to pass connection details (e.g., username, password, host, port) to the connection setup.

Note: I can connect to db directly from my computer/vscode/compass so its not server issue.

Your help and expertise would be invaluable to me as I work on this project. Any code snippets, screenshots, or step-by-step instructions you could provide would go a long way in helping me overcome this challenge.

Thank you so much in advance for your assistance. Looking forward to learning from your experiences!

Best regards,

I believe that BAS does not support connecting to MongoDB using credentials. In this case, your only option is to use IP address authentication on the server side.

Ok. Thank you for the info. I will look into mongodb.net on how to enable credential less access.

@JARVIS
If you enter your server information and click Save, will BAS prompt you for credentials in the next stage?

@JARVIS I don't recommend using the embedded base for remote work, besides not being able to use authorization it has a lot of other problems.

@UserTrue I need remote database as i am running script on multiple machines and all of them need a same database to work properly. thats why remote database is needed. I just baught vps and installed mongodb with no credentials and its working as expected now. http://mongodb.net/ do not have option to use free database without auth.

@sergerdn No it didnt. it directly gives error as cannot connect to remote database. as connection may be rejected for not using credentials.

You can use any remote database when using the SQL module

@Fox Yes I am aware of that method but my app already had database integrated long time ago i was looking for way around. Tho no worries I will be upgrading it to sql database soon. Thanks.

@JARVIS you can use nodejs and mongodb driver
