  • The mongo shell does not include functions for importing, exporting, restore or backup.
  • MongoDB has created methods for accomplishing this, so that no scripting work or complex GUIs are needed.
  • Several utility scripts are used to get data in or out of the database in bulk.
  • These utility scripts are used to back up and restore data in MongoDB:

    • Mongoimport :

    • In MongoDB, it provides a special tool that is used to import data.

    Syntax :
    mongoimport-jsonarray-db database_name-collection collection_name-file file_location

    Mongoexport :

    mongoexport-db database_name-collection collection_name-outpath_or_name_of_the_file

    Mongodump :

    • In MongoDB it is used creating a binary export of the contents and export data from either mongod or mongos
