Description
I just recognized that there are a lot of messages like the following in our Jenkins log:

The MongoDB server has authentication enabled and the DB user used by the plugin has the "readWrite" role, which includes the "find" privilege which in turn should allow the "distinct" function.
Jenkins is 2.332.1, BFA plugin is 2.2.1 and MongoDB is 5.0.14
