AI features in Compass are powered by Generative AI (Gen AI), and may give inaccurate responses. See our Generative AI FAQ for more information about Gen AI in MongoDB products.
AI Features in Compass
The intelligent assistant is an AI-powered tool designed for integrated, tailored MongoDB guidance in Compass.
You can also query data with natural language in Compass. Compass uses AI to generate filter queries and aggregations based on the prompts you provide.
Third Party Providers
AI features in Compass currently use the Azure OpenAI Service hosted by Microsoft. This is subject to change in the future.
How Your Data is Used
When you use AI features in Compass, the following information may be sent to MongoDB's backend and/or the third party AI provider.
For natural language querying:
The full text of your natural language prompt.
The schema of the collection you are querying, including database name, collection name, field names, and types.
Sample field values. These are only used if the
Enable sending sample field valuessetting is enabled in Compass settings. This is an optional setting to improve the quality of recommendations. This setting is off by default.
For the intelligent assistant:
Explain plan metadata. The "Interpret for me" button uses Explain plan metadata, including the original query, to process requests. The assistant prompts a user to confirm that they're okay with this before proceeding with the request each time.
Sanitized connection information. The "Debug for me" button passes sanitized connection information and error messages to the assistant.
The information that is sent will not be shared with any other third parties or stored by the AI provider. We do not send unsanitized connection strings, credentials, or rows/documents from your databases.
Disable AI Features
The following procedure explains how to disable all Generative AI features, including Natural Language Querying and the intelligent assistant.
