The recommended way to get started using the driver in your project is with a dependency management system like sbt or maven. See the Installation Guide for more information.

To connect to a MongoDB Atlas cluster, use the Atlas connection string for your cluster:

import org.mongodb.scala._

// ...

val uri: String = "mongodb+srv://<username>:<password>@<cluster-address>/test?retryWrites=true&w=majority"
System.setProperty("org.mongodb.async.type", "netty")
val client: MongoClient = MongoClient(uri)
val db: MongoDatabase = client.getDatabase("test")

See our guide on Connecting for more ways to connect.
