Connect Placid#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
placid: {
type: "app",
app: "placid",
}
},

Overview of MongoDB#
The MongoDB API provides powerful capabilities to interact with a MongoDB database, allowing you to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, manage databases, and execute sophisticated queries. With Pipedream, you can harness these abilities to automate tasks, sync data across various apps, and react to events in real-time. It’s a combo that’s particularly potent for managing data workflows, syncing application states, or triggering actions based on changes to your data.
Connect MongoDB#
import mongodb from 'mongodb'
export default defineComponent({
props: {
mongodb: {
type: "app",
app: "mongodb",
},
collection: {
type: "string"
},
filter: {
type: "object"
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {

useUnifiedTopology: true
})
const db = client.db(database)
const results = await db.collection(this.collection).find(this.filter).toArray();
