MongoDB

MongoDB is a cross-platform document-oriented database program. MongoDB is a powerful suite of services that allow teams to safely expose their data from their frontend, build backend logic, third-party service integrations, or APIs, and run code in response to data changes — all without thinking about the server. This connector is used for connecting to the Mongo DB provider.

 

To configure the MongoDB connector, follow the instructions below:

  1. In the Admin Navigation tree, select Connections and click New.
