Login

The server version of Mongo Management Studio includes an authentication mechanism by default. The users have to register themself on the system and are then unlocked by the administrator. This login refers only to the application. It is independent of the authentification to the MongoDB databases.

The authentication and the rights system of the application can be disabled in the config.js file. So every user can have access to the application without authentication, if he knows the URL of the application.

There is no registration mechanism in the professional edition of Mongo Management Studio.

The management of the users of the Mongo database is described in this section.

The login dialog opens at startup. If the user is already registered, the user name and password is sufficient. With ENTER the input is confirmed.

Register

To create a new user, you can reach a form by using the "Register" link at the buttom of the login-popup. Fill in the necessary info to the required fields and then sign up with the button "Register". The user receives an E-Mail, containing a confirmation link, to the specified E-Mail address. When this link is visited, the user gets activated in the application.

By clicking the "Login" button in the register-form you will directly be forwarded to a login screen with the same functionality as the original login screen.
