Joey Frazee commented on NIFI-7768:
-----------------------------------
Pretty sure this is just a matter of what version of the Mongo driver is being
used and the error is being thrown there:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The connection string is invalid.
Connection strings must start with 'mongodb://'
at com.mongodb.ConnectionString.<init>(ConnectionString.java:203)
at com.mongodb.MongoClientURI.<init>(MongoClientURI.java:176)
at com.mongodb.MongoClientURI.<init>(MongoClientURI.java:158)
The default driver version in NiFi is still 3.2.2, which is 4 years old and
pre-dates the SRV record support [1]. There are build profiles for using 3.6.x
(-P3.6) or 3.8.x (-P3.8) and using those the processor initialization gets past
this point. I don't have access to a setup using this though so I can't do a
real test.
Bumping the driver version we're using should probably resolve the issue.

> when trying to connect to a MongoDB atlas instance, we see a message that
> says `mongo db URL should start with mobgodb://`. But our atlas connection
> string starts with `mongodb+srv`. Please enhance the processor/controller
