Mongo Management Studio allows you to export a collection either in JSON format or in CSV format. I you use the context menu in the navigation, the export will always use the JSON format. Using this file the included data can be imported into other collections using Mongo Management Studio or "mongoimport". I you open a collection and use the Button "Collection" -> "Export", and Dialog with several options is opened.
- With the first option selected all documents will be exported which macht the query entered in the search input field. This option ignores the current paging
- The second option allows to export the current view (search query + paging options)
- The third option exports all documents of the collection
Additionally you can choose the export format. JSON is just the mongoimport compatible JSON representation of the documents. CSV is a flat column representation of the data. When choosing CSV there are several options you can set.
