Select Mongo as the plugin. Mongo-Express (browser-based Mongo-Express IDE) will launch in a browser. There are two Application Parameters for this plugin. The Application Parameters are coded and will be used to launch the IDE.

Mongo-Express administrator functionality is enabled to allow create, view and delete functionality. The interface also allows creation of collections, documents and indexes.

Note: The ‘Server Status’ functionality currently does not work due to a developer bug.
