Project Owner - Cannot Delete Database

Working with Data
1

I have project owner privileges, but when I try to drop the “local” database, I get the following error:

MongoServerError: (Unauthorized) not authorized on local to execute command { dbStats: true, lsid: { id: {4 [109 58 229 78 33 224 67 158 158 38 147 102 53 244 244 202]} }, $clusterTime: { clusterTime: {1738830911 22}, signature: { hash: {0 [136 23 158 103 4 72 206 32 159 97 248 48 60 1 45 183 34 40 31 41]}, keyId: 7424214999679107072.000000 } }, $db: “local” }

It is a protected DB
Please check mongodb documentation

Protected MongoDB Database Namespaces

The following databases are read-only for all users, including those with the atlasAdmin or clusterMonitor role.

  • local
  • config

You may have to create a custom_role with reuired privileges on local DB

Are these databases included in the account’s storage usage?
