In our case, we will select “Java” as the language and “3.6+” as the version. Next, you are able to tell Atlas which programming language and version of the MongoDB driver you are using. Then, select the connection method in this case we want to choose “Connect Your Application” since we will be connecting with our Spring Boot app. Press “Connect” on the sandbox cluster you’ve created. Create new Userįinally! Now we are ready to get our connection string for our database! Luckily, Atlas takes away all the guess work and provides a connection string or code sample – I know I’ve had issues keeping my connection string criteria organized in the past. Once this is completed you will see the user appear in a table of all configured users. Now, press “Add New User” and follow the prompts to setup a new user with your desired permissions. To configure a new database user, select the “Database Access” menu item from the left. Once you are signed in and have access to your cluster, you must be sure that a user exists which has permission to access your database and collection. Select “Sign In” option in the upper-right corner This dashboard is where you can configure your first database and collection if you haven’t already done this. Requirements:Īt this time, sign in to Atlas and access your main dashboard. This tutorial assumes that you already have a Spring Boot project and Atlas account. Atlas has a free “sandbox” that can be configured – this is what we will use for this tutorial.

In this tutorial we will be learning how to connect your Spring Boot application with a MongoDB instance that is hosted using MongoDB Atlas.
