mongodb connection string

It typically includes the necessary credentials (username and password), the database cluster URL, and other parameters to define the connection behavior.

Basic structure of a MongoDB connection string

mongodb://<username>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<database>?<options>

Your fresh standalone installation likely has no access control set up, meaning there are no authentication requirements for connecting.

The connection string would typically be simple, without user credentials.

mongodb://localhost:27017

If access control is enabled, you need to include a username, password, and the authentication source database in the connection string.

For example:

mongodb://username:password@localhost:27017/?authSource=admin

If you're already connected via the shell or terminal, you can use the `db.getMongo()` command to retrieve the connection string.
