Connection Security

Create the Database Admin User

MongoDB has automatically added the current IP address to the whitelist and has autogenerated a username and password for the ADMIN user.

Make sure to copy the Username and Password somewhere safe.

We will need it later.

Important: Click the Create Database User button to actually create the user.

---

If you don’t do this now, don’t panic. You can create the user manually later.

Note: We will cover the connection method in the next step.
