 Description   

https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/security-users/

We should clarify that you can be logged in on different databases with several users concurrently in the shell. In this case, you will have the collective permissions of all authenticated users. If you do not want to be authenticated on a particular database you can execute db.logout() on the same database.
