Problem Statement/Rationale

What is going wrong? What action would you like the Engineering team to take?

I save the output of an Aggregation pipeline created in Compass to a View and then open it. I can only access the first page with 20 results, not browse to the next. The View has 11000+ Documents. If I run db.collection.find({}).limit(30) I get 30 results (first 20, Type "it" for more, next 10). The View does not report total number of Documents, says N/A, see image. Has somebody else seen this behaviour too? I do not remember if viewing Views in Compass works different than regular Collections.

Please be sure to attach relevant logs with any sensitive data redacted.

Steps to Reproduce

How could an engineer replicate the issue you’re reporting?

(max) I could not reproduce it on my side. The closest I got is by setting a small enough maxTimeMS when looking at a view on sample_mflix.movies that makes the count time out and N/A being displayed. In that case, I can't go to the next page.

Expected Results

What do you expect to happen?

I can paginate through results even if I can't see how many results there are.

Actual Results

What do you observe is happening?

"Next page" control is disabled.
