Welcome to the community forums @Rayan_Alsubhi!

The new MONGODB-AWS authentication mechanism currently requires an Atlas cluster running MongoDB 4.4+.

Borrowing from the MongoDB 4.4 connection string documentation:

To use MONGODB-AWS, you must be connecting to a MongoDB Atlas cluster which has been configured to support authentication via AWS IAM credentials (i.e. an AWS access key ID and a secret access key, and optionally an AWS session token). The MONGODB-AWS authentication mechanism requires that the authSource be set to $external .
