MongoDB

The Conduit Platform by default supports MongoDB as a source and a destination.

The MongoDB destination can connect to and produce records to a collection.

Required Configurations

Name	Description	Required	Default
db	The name of a database the connector must work with.	Yes
collection	The name of a collection the connector must write to.	Yes

Upsert Behavior

The destination connector takes an sdk.Record and parses it into a valid MongoDB query and is designed to handle different payloads and keys. Because of this, each record is individually parsed and upserted.

Collection Name

If a record contains a mongo.collection property in its metadata it will be written in that collection, otherwise it will fall back to use the collection configured in the connector. Thus, a Destination can support multiple collections in the same connector, as long as the user has proper access to those collections.

Key Handling

The connector uses all keys from an sdk.Record when updating and deleting documents.

If the _id field can be converted to a bson.ObjectID, the connector converts it, otherwise, it uses it as it is.
