MongoDB password with “@” in it

Question

I\'m trying to connect to a MongoDB database with a username and password using Mongoose in Node.js. All the docs say that the connection string should look like

<         


        

Answer 1

I have also faced the same issue. I have solved by adding encoded password into connection string. And it works just well.

(1) Encode your password from https://www.url-encode-decode.com
(2) Replace your password with encoded one.
(3) It should work well.

For example:
Actual Password: ABCDEX$KrrpvDzRTy`@drf.';3X
Encoded Password: ABCDEX%24KrrpvDzRTy%60%40drf.%27%3B3X

mongodb://user1:ABCDEX%24KprpvDzRTy%60%40drf.%27%3B3X@dstest.com:1234,ds1234-test.com:19889/mongo-dev?replicaSet=rs-ds123546978&ssl=true',
