Connect MongoDB via SSH Tunnel

To connect your MongoDB database to Commerce Intelligence via an SSH tunnel, you must do a few things:

Retrieving the Commerce Intelligence public key retrieve

The public key is used to authorize the Commerce Intelligence Linux user. The next section walks you through creating the user and import the keys.

Leave this page open throughout the tutorial - you will need it in the next section and at the end.

If you are a bit lost, here is how to navigate through Commerce Intelligence to retrieve the key:

Allow access to the Commerce Intelligence IP address allowlist

For the connection to be successful, you must configure your firewall to allow access from your IP addresses. They are 54.88.76.97 and 34.250.211.151, but it is also on the MongoDB credentials page:

Creating a Linux user for Commerce Intelligence linux

This can be a production or secondary machine, as long as it contains real-time (or frequently updated) data. You may restrict this user any way you like as long as it retains the right to connect to the MongoDB server.

To add the new user, run the following commands as root on your Linux server:

    adduser rjmetric -p
    mkdir /home/rjmetric
    mkdir /home/rjmetric/.ssh

Remember the public key you retrieved in the first section? To ensure that the user has access to the database, you need to import the key into authorized_keys. Copy the entire key into the authorized_keys file as follows:

    touch /home/rjmetric/.ssh/authorized_keys
    "< PASTE KEY HERE >" >> /home/rjmetric/.ssh/authorized_keys

To finish creating the user, alter the permissions on the /home/rjmetric directory to allow access via SSH:

    chown -R rjmetric:rjmetric /home/rjmetric
    chmod -R 700 /home/rjmetric/.ssh

Creating an Commerce Intelligence MongoDB user mongodb

MongoDB servers have two run modes - one with the 鈥渁uth鈥� option (mongod -- auth) and one without, which is the default. The steps for creating a MongoDB user varies depending on what mode your server is using. Bee sure to verify the mode before continuing.

If your server uses the Auth Option: auth

When connecting to multiple databases, you can add the user by logging into MongoDB as an admin user and running the following commands.

This command grants the Commerce Intelligence user access to all databases:

    use admin
    db.createUser('rjmetric', '< secure password here >', true)

Use this command to grant the Commerce Intelligence user access to a single database:

    use < database name >
    db.createUser('rjmetric', '< secure password here >', true)

This prints a response that looks like this:

    {
    "id": ObjectId("< some object id here >"),
    "user": "rjmetric",
    "readOnly": true,
    "pwd": "< some hash here >"
    }

If your server uses the default option default

If your server does not use auth mode, your MongoDB server is accessible even without a username and password. However, you should ensure the mongodb.conf file (/etc/mongodb.conf) has the following lines - if not, restart your server after you add them.

    bind_ip = 127.0.0.1
    noauth = true

To bind your MongoDB server to a different address, adjust the database hostname in the next step accordingly.

Entering the connection and user info into Commerce Intelligence finish

To wrap things up, you need to enter the connection and user info into Commerce Intelligence. Did you leave the MongoDB credentials page open? If not, go to Data > Connections and click Add New Data Source, then the MongoDB icon. Do not forget to change the Encrypted toggle to Yes.

Enter the following info into this page, starting with the Database Connection section:

Under the SSH Connection section:

When you are finished, click Save Test to complete the setup.
