setting connection between aws glue and mongodb atlas

1

i got a mongodb atlas cluster outside aws. I want to use aws glue with my mongo db databases so i created a connection but im getting "InvalidInputException: Unable to resolve any valid connection". Im sure that i provide a valid URL and username and password.

Then I found this article (https://aws.amazon.com/es/blogs/apn/connecting-applications-securely-to-a-mongodb-atlas-data-plane-with-aws-privatelink/) to configure a private link between aws and atlas but there is an associated cost for both services

There is another way?

  • I am getting an identical error ("InvalidInputException: Unable to resolve any valid connection") when I try to test a glue connector to my mongoDB atlas database. The connection string, user and password work fine on another client.

Hello,

As you may know already, MongoDB atlas requires an additional "+srv" thing in the connection URL, could you please check if you have included "+srv" in the URL.

MongoDB Atlas URL need to be provided in the format: mongodb+srv://mongoHost:mongoPort/mongoDBname.

You can also go through below AWS documentation to verify if you are missing any steps or configuration.

[1] MongoDB connections - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/glue/latest/dg/aws-glue-programming-etl-connect-mongodb-home.html

[2] Testing an AWS Glue connection - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/glue/latest/dg/console-test-connections.html

You can also refer below documentations to understand different deployment options.
