Command documentation does not tell you the permissions required to run the command!

XMLWordPrintableJSON

      So frustrating in the documentation is that each command does not come with a required set of permissions in the documentation.

      I would expect to see something like:

      copydb:

      mongo version >2.4 require [blah] role
      =2.4 require 'admin' privileges'

      This is very frustrating, as I have now tried a whole bunch of different roles for each command, and without a reference, this is slowing me down immensely. I am still unable to tell which role is required for db.copyDatabase() - all I can see is "admin priviliges", which has been superceded by roles in 2.4 that I can see.

      Anyway having this documentation would be very helpful.
