I have MongoDB running on my AWS EC2 instance. I can run all my unit tests on my local (host) MacBook and get the JSON back connecting using my AWS public IP address.

However when I try and connect to MongoDB:

> db.version()

3.6.2

using MongoDB Compass Community Beta version 1.12.0-beta.4 (1.12.0-beta.4) I get:

MongoDB not running on the provided host and port

Any issues?

However when I try and connect to MongoDB:

Hi,

How are you trying to connect ?
Are you trying to use the same URL as url = http://35.xxx.xx.xxx:8080/NOTiFYwell/notifywell/product-by-ean/5000157024671 ?

MongoDB Compass enables you to connect to a MongoDB instance (but not a REST API server).
See also Compass: Connect to MongoDB for more information.
