Cannot dump MongoDB Atlas database. Get "dumping up to 0 collections in parallel"

Question

I am trying to make a dump of my MongoDB Atlas database using the command given under the database cmd line tools, under binary import and export tools. Here's a picture of where the command was taken from in Atlas:

I'm modifying the actual command a bit, here it is: mongodump --uri mongodb+srv://[email protected]/ -vvvv

The command seems to run and I get no error messages but it does not actually provide me with a dump of the database. I get the following message upon running the command in windows cmd:

It doesn't provide me with any information as to what could be going wrong. I tried disconnectiing my application from the databse before running the command but it didn't help.

Note that a collection and a database are not the same thing. The correct command is:

mongodump --uri mongodb+srv://<your_server_url>/<db_name> --collection <collection_name> -o . -v
