Create User

Easily create a new MongoDB user in just a few clicks. Users are used for interacting with databases or the MongoDB server.

Navigate to MongoDB > Create User:

1. Enter a Username Type your desired username into the input field. Only letters, numbers, and underscores are allowed, and the username must be between 1 and 31 characters long.

2. Enter a Password Type your desired password in the second input field. To generate a strong random password, click the button next to the input field.

3. Click 'Create User' Once you enter or generate the username and password, click the Create User button to create your new MongoDB user.

A new user is created with no roles - use Assign User to DB to grant them access to a database.

Best Practices​

• Use short and descriptive names (e.g., app_user, analytics_user).
• Avoid using uppercase letters, spaces, or special characters.
• Make sure the username is meaningful for easy identification later.
