As you pointed out, the authentication method for MongoDB via Direct Access gateway is No Authentication or MongoDB User Name and Password.

The supported mechanism for MongoDB is listed here: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/ODBC_Connector_help/Content/Connectors_ODBC/Mongo/Create-Mongo-connection.htm

If you are looking for other authentication mechanisms, please log an idea for our team to implement during upcoming releases.
