{
"mcpServers": {
"mongodb": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@sourabhshegane/mongodb-mcp-that-works@latest"],
"env": {
"MONGODB_URI": "mongodb+srv://username:password@cluster.mongodb.net/database",
"MONGODB_DATABASE": "your_database_name"
}
}
}
}
Configuration Options

Available Tools
1. listCollections
List all collections in the database.
// Example
mcp.listCollections({ filter: {} })
2. find
Find documents in a collection with filtering, sorting, and pagination.
// Example
mcp.find({
collection: "users",
filter: { status: "active" },
sort: { createdAt: -1 },
limit: 10
})
3. findOne
Find a single document.
// Example
mcp.findOne({
collection: "users",
filter: { email: "user@example.com" }
})
4. aggregate
Run aggregation pipelines.
// Example
mcp.aggregate({
collection: "orders",
pipeline: [
{ $match: { status: "completed" } },
{ $group: { _id: "$userId", total: { $sum: "$amount" } } }
]
})
5. count
Count documents matching a filter.
// Example
mcp.count({
collection: "products",
filter: { inStock: true }
})
6. distinct
Get distinct values for a field.
// Example
mcp.distinct({
collection: "orders",
field: "status"
})
7. insertOne
Insert a single document.
// Example
mcp.insertOne({
collection: "users",
document: { name: "John Doe", email: "john@example.com" }
})
8. updateOne
Update a single document.
// Example
mcp.updateOne({
collection: "users",
filter: { _id: "123" },
update: { $set: { status: "active" } }
})
9. deleteOne
Delete a single document.
// Example
mcp.deleteOne({
collection: "users",
filter: { _id: "123" }
})
10. getSchema
Analyze collection structure and discover field names.
// Example
mcp.getSchema({
collection: "users",
sampleSize: 100
})
// Returns:
{
"collection": "users",
"sampleSize": 100,
"fields": {
"_id": {
"types": ["ObjectId"],
"examples": ["507f1f77bcf86cd799439011"],
"frequency": "100/100",
"percentage": 100
},
"email": {
"types": ["string"],
"examples": ["user@example.com"],
"frequency": "100/100",
"percentage": 100
}
}
}
Best Practices
- Use Schema Discovery First: Before querying, run
getSchemato understand field names - Handle ObjectIds: The server automatically converts string IDs to ObjectIds
- Use Projections: Limit returned fields to improve performance
- Batch Operations: Use aggregation pipelines for complex queries
Examples
Basic Usage
// Get schema first to avoid field name mistakes
const schema = await mcp.getSchema({ collection: "reports" });
// Use correct field names from schema
const reports = await mcp.find({
collection: "reports",
filter: { organization_id: "64ba7374f8b63db2083b2665" },
limit: 10
});
Advanced Aggregation
const analytics = await mcp.aggregate({
collection: "orders",
pipeline: [
{ $match: { createdAt: { $gte: new Date("2024-01-01") } } },
{ $group: {
_id: { $dateToString: { format: "%Y-%m", date: "$createdAt" } },
revenue: { $sum: "$amount" },
count: { $sum: 1 }
}},
{ $sort: { _id: 1 } }
]
});
Troubleshooting
Connection Issues
- Verify your MongoDB URI is correct
- Check network connectivity to MongoDB Atlas
- Ensure IP whitelist includes your current IP
Field Name Errors
- Always use
getSchemato discover correct field names - Remember MongoDB is case-sensitive
- Check for typos in nested field paths (e.g., "user.profile.name")
Performance
- Use indexes for frequently queried fields
- Limit result sets with
limitparameter - Use projections to return only needed fields
