If you were using a basic user account, you will still authenticate with the admin database since all users authenticate with the admin db in Atlas.
#ADD DATE ROBO 3T PASSWORD#
For the User credentials enter your Atlas admin account and the password and select SCRAM-SHA-1 for the Auth Mechanism. On the Authentication tab, click the checkbox Perform Authentication. Our Atlas admin account is automatically added to the admin database when we stand up our first cluster, so you shouldn't have to add. But ISODate() does take an 'iso date string', which Date can do via.

Even if you wrap it in ISODate(new Date()) it for some reason still ends up being that same date string. Now we are ready to click on the Authentication tab up top. EDIT2: basically in mongo shell, new Date() outputs an ISODate(), but in Robo 3T, its the standard date string Wed 10:59:03 GMT- (Greenich whatever). Find your replica set members and enter them like you see in the images above. If you look at the connection string on this page and then look at the example in the images above, you can see what parts we parse out for the individual replica set members. Decompress the downloaded package obtained in 3 and double-click the robo3t.exe file in the decompressed directory to start the installation. Scroll down the the section titled "Connect with the Mongo Shell". You can find the node details in Atlas by clicking on Clusters and then clicking on the Data button. All other steps in this guide are the same for either connection type.

See the second image that follows for reference. If you want to connect as a basic user, maybe a user that has only read access to a specific database, you would change the connection type to Direct Connection and and use the primary member to connect. IMPORTANT - As of writing this you can only connect with the Replica Set connection type if you are connecting as an Atlas admin, which we are doing in the first image below. Give it a friendly name and then enter the members of your replica set in Atlas. For the Type, we are going to select Replica Set. Click the create button at the top of this window to create a new connection. Open Robo 3T and click the file option, then click connect. When you went through the configuration the first time you should have been asked to setup your Atlas admin account, we will use this to connect to the MongoDB instance. We are going to assume you have already setup your cluster in Atlas. Here is a quick guide on using Robo3T to connect to your MongoDB 3.4 replica set in Atlas.
#ADD DATE ROBO 3T DOWNLOAD#
The latest version of Studio 3T, which supports MongoDB 3.4, is also free to download for those three platforms, but you'll only have all the features as a trial. Currently, Robomongo only supports MongoDB 3.2, but they have a roadmap to support 3.4 in the next release.
#ADD DATE ROBO 3T MAC#
With their first release, Robo 3T v1.1, we now have support for MongoDB 3.4 and some new features around working with your clusters in Atlas. Robomongo 1.0 is free to download for Windows, Mac and Linux platforms. If you use Robomongo you probably already know that Robomongo was acquired by 3T Software.
