Hi, I am trying to connect MongoDB using the Ignition MongoDB Connector. I have followed every steps shown in Inductive University video but still getting faulted connection.  
Is somebody already tried this, please suggest me how to fix this.  
I have attached the image for reference.

That big orange bar tends to break various modules' functionality. Are you resetting trial mode for your testing?

I tried with that as well, but even that is also not helping.

I'll let someone familiar with MongoDB carry on from here.

Just to verify, does the same information works ok in MongoDB Compass? Ensuring it is isolated as an Ignition Gateway issue.

If you navigate to your\_ip:your\_port/web/status/con.databases?11 what does it say under details?

I am able to access my MongoDB Compass and able to create cluster.

If I am navigating to your\_ip:your\_port/web/status/con.databases it only shows the connection details of existing connection excluding MongoDB. For your reference I have attached the snapshot.
