Connect to Linode MongoDB from MongoDB Compass

Hi,

I have a MERN One-click app Linode. and I want to connect to the MongoDB in my Linode from MongoDB Compass in my local machine. I tried input SSH tunnel and MongoDB host information to connect but no luck.

Is it possible to achieve this? If so, please guide me what information I need to put in to create the connection.
