Fields
aws
AWS IAM authentication using the MONGODB-AWS mechanism, for example against MongoDB Atlas. When enabled, IAM credentials are used instead of a static username and password. Role-derived session credentials are resolved when the component connects and are re-resolved whenever it reconnects. The mongodb processor and cache establish their client once at creation and cannot refresh expiring session credentials, so role, roles and session tokens are rejected for those components; use the ambient credential chain or long-lived access keys with them. For long-running pipelines, prefer the ambient credential chain (leave keys and roles unset), which the driver refreshes automatically.
Requires version 4.106.0 or later.
Type: object
aws.enabled
Enable AWS IAM authentication using the driver-native MONGODB-AWS mechanism. The MongoDB Atlas database user must be created with the AWS IAM authentication type, and connections require TLS. When no static credentials or roles are configured, the ambient AWS credential chain (environment variables, EC2 instance profile, EKS pod role) is used and expiring credentials are refreshed automatically.
Type: bool
Default: false
aws.region
The AWS region used when assuming roles (for STS calls). Only used when role or roles are configured; the ambient and static-key paths ignore it. If no region is specified then the environment default is used.
Type: string
aws.role
Optional AWS IAM role ARN to assume for authentication. Cannot be combined with roles; use the roles array instead when chaining multiple roles.
Type: string
aws.role_external_id
Optional external ID for the role assumption. Only used with the role field, which cannot be combined with roles.
Type: string
aws.roles[]
Optional array of AWS IAM roles to assume for authentication. Roles can be assumed in sequence, enabling chaining for purposes such as cross-account access. Each role can optionally specify an external ID. Cannot be combined with role.
Type: array<object>
aws.secret
The secret for the credentials being used.

This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. |
Type: string
aws.session_duration
The duration of the STS session requested when assuming roles. AWS requires at least 15 minutes and caps sessions created through role chaining at one hour. Only used when role or roles are configured. For long-running pipelines, prefer the ambient credential chain over a fixed session duration, since the driver refreshes ambient credentials automatically as they near expiry.
Type: string
Default: 1h
aws.token
The token for the credentials being used, required when using short term credentials.
Type: string
password
The password to connect to the database.
