**Kibana version** :7.9 **Elasticsearch version** :7.9 **APM Server version** :7.9 **APM Agent language and version** :Java - 1.18.0 **Browser version** :Firefox 80.0.1 **Original install method (e.g. download page, yum, deb, from source, etc.) and version**: Maven **Fresh install or upgraded from other version?** Fresh install **Is there anything special in your setup?** None **Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior. Please include screenshots (if relevant)**: The base interface from MongoDB driver (com.mongodb.connection.Connection) was deleted on version 4.x of the driver, and so the APM for Mongo is not working in newer drivers.

Hi @marcelo.pio, welcome to our forum ! Yes, we currently only support MongoDB version 3.x (as written [in our documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/supported-technologies-details.html#supported-databases)). We use [this form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScd0RYiwZGrEuxykYkv9z8Hl3exx_LKCtjsqEo1OWx8BkLrOQ/viewform) to prioritize framework/library support, have you already filled it ? However, it does not include any part relative to storage nor a specific version (please add it to the last freeform input). ---

Hi @marcelo.pio. FYI we have opened an implementation issue as we want to add support for newer versions of the MongoDB driver to the agent. Feel free to subscribe/comment on the issue so you'll get notified when we start working on it. > > > Initially reported in our forum > Our current support for MongoDB is limited to 3.x version of the driver. > https://mongodb.github.io/mongo-java-driver/4.1/driver/getting-started/installation/ > There are two variants of...
