Hello there!  
MongoDB Collection Details and MongoDB Collections Overview dashboards are not showing any data. Questions:

- Do i need to update existing pmm-agent to get this data? (PMM is 2.31 and pmm-agent is 2.23)
- If not, what is the requirements to get these datas from MongoDB? It will be good if you put some information at top of the dashboard.

Thanks!

I am facing the same issue, `mongodb_collstats_storageStats_count ` metrics has no data, do we need to enable something?

Hi,

PMM starts the MongoDB exporter by default only with `diagnosticdata` and `replicasetstatus` collectors enabled.  
There are other collectors ( `collstats` , `dbstats` , `indexstats` , and `topmetrics`) which are not enabled by default. So you need to explicitly enable the collectors while adding mongodb service into PMM.

Kindly refer this [link](https://docs.percona.com/percona-monitoring-and-management/details/commands/pmm-admin.html#advanced-options) on how to enable collectors.

Regards,  
Parag
