Use mongoimport to Import a CSV file into a MongoDB Database and Collection

[@HussainAhmed-pz2yb]

I almost spent 2 hours and didn't figured out my mistake. But you my bro saved my day.

[@rod5732]

thank you thank you thank youu a lot!! I tried everything but your video was the most helpful

[@anjakimberley4769]

This video is so helpful, really hard to find a walk through but this was perfect (uploading CSV files to MongoDB on a Mac as a newbie)

[@adamkenawell6774]

Thanks so much, very helpful! I am working on my final project for a college class and it required me to import a csv file into mongodb. This video was extremely easy to follow and it took me a total of 10 minutes from installation of mongodb to working with my csv in the mongo command line. You definitely saved me 4 hours!!! 😁

[@zak9934]

Do you have an idea to import data directly from Hive into MongoDB

[@jeremeymanuelpillai6848]

I am in your position, just 1 year later

It took me 2 hrs and nothing
Thank you for sharing

[@rubeshmohan8322]

Awesome man🔥it was very useful to me, respect your hardwork bro👍🏼

[@FireSwordOfMagic]

Thank you so much! I've been trying to figure how to get the mongoimport tool. It mentions in the documentation that it no longer comes with mongodb, but it doesn't mention how to get it. Much appreciated again.

[@ndtgroup]

Thank you so much. Even my instructor failed to show us how to do this.

[@happyshokeen4110]

thanks a lot man, been suffering for 3,4 hours trying to find the exact same thing .

[@EdYoungHEY]

Thank you so much for this! Great job! So helpful and clear and I'm even using a mac and your clarity made it easy to understand as to how it applied to the mac environment.

[@dericuspaul9319]

Thanks man!!! I’m doing some homework and been trying to figure this out for a long time as well. Your video was straight to the point helpful! Great job.

[@snoopshaggy5213]

Thankyou very much, you just saved me hours on this for a University project.

[@paperboy1116]

Cool video dude! Been trying to figure this out using MongoDB Atlas for the last few days

[@Tsukasa1929]

Thanks for the share, tip: write CMD in the address bar folder you are, that will open a cmd windows in that folder

[@ABHISHEKKUMAR-ie3hl]

Thanks a lot for the video! 👍🙏
One side note, you can save the path to the mongo executables as PATH environment variable. That will save some time by eliminating the need to copy the entire path to the bin and doing a cd before running mongo.exe or other executables present in bin directory.

[@jasmeetdhaliwal3379]

Thanks a lot, man!! I was trying to figure it out from last 3 hours .

[@sabiyatabassum2206]

Thanks a ton, searching this info for long time. Great that u included right from downloading the zip.. 🙌

[@dhanshriful]

Thanks a lot... i was struggling for two hours!

[@abhishekshrivastava9683]

Why didn't you use the 'Compass' tool to import the .csv file. It's easier. I just imported 32,000 documents in my collection. You are a cool guy and I love your presentation way. Also, I learned a new way to import .csv in the MongoDB database collection via 'Command Prompt'. Thank you :)

[@kushaldavda5892]

You are awesome! You saved my 3 hours and 53 mins

[@vichht]

Thanks a bunch! Clear and Easy to understand

[@jbrew1237]

Instead of having the csv file in the bin, you can put the full file path leading to the file after the "--file" and it works.

[@PsclKmn]

Good video, clear and concise. Thank you!

[@saptarshiroy7764]

Hi, your video was really helpful for me,thanks man!One question I would like to ask,I have a requirement of importing multiple csv files into mongdb,for that do I really need to write query for each csv file,or there is a way by which I can do it all at once?

[@kajalpareek8291]

Hey saptarshi did you got your answer?

[@saptarshiroy7764]

not sure if this is a mongodb version 6.0 but when I type the command mongoimport, I got "'mongoimport' is not recognized as a internal or external command, operable program or batch file". How do I fix it??

[@jennikuvaja6800]

Everything seemed to work fine at the beginning, but I didn't get the mongo.exe file. So still struggling...

[@needle6782]

thanks but how we can use this with Mongodb Atlas , I can connect it but can't send any files TT

[@sushantbaweja424]

Is there a way to upload an object or an array of objects from csv to mongodb ?

[@rupeshghule8495]

Thanks alot man😁✌️

[@journeydivine]

Great video thank you so much!

[@nomadsoulkarma]

Not sure why but my Mongo download already had the import exe within. Finding the mongodb msi link was frustrating for me because with firefox mongo's website didn't have a link to the msi but was there when I used google chrome.

[@showyouhow3801]

Great Job, Thanks so much!

[@dopamine1921]

finally i found the solution, thanks a lot ♥

[@kevinmorte3959]

Hi!
How did you manage to have an excel with values separated but tabs (or let's say heach value on its own cell) and still, even the extension of the file is indeed .csv, and work properly. I do the exact thing an the items get saved as {name,surname: john dohner}. Thanks!

[@zak9934]

I need to move data from Hive to Mongo DB. Can I use import at MongoDB? Also, can I schedule task for importing data from Hive into MongoDB

[@arktos09]

An lazy method without copying anything, and don't dealing with paths would be to use the MongoDB Compass which should be directly installed with MognoDB. Import tools etc, are already included. Only be sure MongoDB ist started, and then create a new database and add the data via new collection.

Funny, this is super easy in a Unix environment. Figures it sucks in Windows.
