Have you solved this yet? You might not be using the correct username/password for this database. This is from the logs:

(node:726) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: MongoNetworkError: failed to connect to server [cluster0-shard-00-02-ycsin.mongodb.net:27017] on first connect [MongoError: bad auth Authentication failed.]

3

Isn’t username/password the same? I only got that one db

Have you set a user for that db?

Should I add a user besides the default atlasAdmin@admin?
