Robomongo: Can't edit/delete collection or documents [solved]

Created on 8 Sep 2016  路  7Comments  路  Source: Studio3T/robomongo

I'm using Mongodb Atlas and the connection with Robomongo is ok, but the problem is that i'm able to create or delete databases but not collections or documents.
I'm authenticated to the database as admin with Read and Write to any database. What can i do?

Thanks a lot for your interest in Robomongo. We have just did a quick test, it works for us.

The problem seems to us related to permissions, we suggest to double check users, roles and permissions. Also please make sure you are connected to primary node one more time.

Please also see screenshots from a working example:

@simsekgokhan i did exactly as you suggested, i created a new user with atlasAdmin Role in Atlas dashboard and than connected, but still cant delete or edit any document and collection. I can do it just from shell terminal.

Exactly, I was just writing that you are not connecting to primary.
Great that it works.

Support for Replica Sets is under development to be included in the next or the following release, which connects to primary automatically. This kind of problems will not exist in the future hopefully.

Closing as solved

i was not using the primary node from the cluster.

In case anyone else didn't understand what he meant by this. It also took me a while to find the primary cluster. Here is a screenshot. Copy the long string that starts with cluster0 and place it into the Address field in Robomongo's connection interface.
