Problem Description

Compass shows a validation error when a connection string with IAM authentication is pasted.

Property 'authStrategy' must be one of values: NONE, MONGODB, X509, KERBEROS, LDAP, SCRAM-SHA-256. Tried to set undefined

This prevents the user from clicking the Connect button. The same connection string works when using other ways to connect, such as pymongo.

Steps to Reproduce

Paste an IAM connection string, e.g.

mongodb+srv://accesskey:secretkey@production-datastore.eucmb.mongodb.net/myFirstDatabase?authSource=%24external&authMechanism=MONGODB-AWS&retryWrites=true&w=majority

Expected Results

Connect button to be enabled and successfully connecting on click.

Actual Results

Connect button is disabled and an error is shown.

Additional Notes

The example given above is for IAM user-based authentication, but role-based authentication isn't working either.
