Output System "MongoDB"

The "MongoDB" output system creates new data records in a MongoDB. JSON objects are required for this generation. Index fields cannot be output directly, only file attachments in JSON format. Such file attachments in JSON format can be generated using the "JSON" output format, for example. The default setting for the .FileFilter differs from the standard *.json.

This URL will then be used instead of the connection and authentication properties.

The .Password property can also be defined separately when using a connection string, inserted into the string via the %Password% variable.
