Hi Community, 

 

What is the best practice for changing authentication method from built in to windows authentication in a production environment? 

 

Thank you

Hi @mahmoodalqadi changing authentication methods is not recommended as each authentication method structures the Mongo Database differently so you can't inter change easily. The below screenshot from this article does highlight this and explains what steps you should take if this is required.
