Adapter for MongoDB enables you to dynamically change the user credentials of a connection associated with an adapter service at run time. This feature enables you to interact with a database with different user privileges.

For example, consider a service's associated adapter connection that uses an administrator's credentials at design time to define a connection to a database. At run time, you can override the administrator's account credentials with individual user credentials to limit access to the database according to the permission level each user has. This capability also enables you to keep track of the database operations by the user initiating the service.
