Connections are the entry point for all work in Spanna.

What you can store

A connection can include:
  • a name
  • a MongoDB URI
  • authentication details
  • database context
  • folder placement if you organize many connections

Local vs Cloud Sync

  • local use works without signing in
  • Cloud Sync keeps saved connections available across supported clients

Good connection hygiene

Use clear names such as:
  • prod-cluster
  • staging-api
  • local-dev
Avoid saving multiple vague entries like mongodb or test.
