# MongoDB Output Plugin
This plugin writes metrics to [MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.com) automatically creating
collections as time series collections if they don't exist.
> [!NOTE]
> This plugin requires MongoDB v5 or later for time series collections.
**Introduced in:** Telegraf v1.21.0
**Tags:** datastore
**OS support:** all
[mongodb]: https://www.mongodb.com
## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md](/telegraf/v1/configuration/#plugins) for more details.
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
## Secret-store support
This plugin supports secrets from secret-stores for the `username` and
`password` option.
See the [secret-store documentation](/telegraf/v1/configuration/#secret-store-secrets) for more details on how
to use them.

```toml @sample.conf
# A plugin that can transmit logs to mongodb
[[outputs.mongodb]]
# connection string examples for mongodb
dsn = "mongodb://localhost:27017"
# dsn = "mongodb://mongod1:27017,mongod2:27017,mongod3:27017/admin&replicaSet=myReplSet&w=1"
# overrides serverSelectionTimeoutMS in dsn if set
# timeout = "30s"
# default authentication, optional
# authentication = "NONE"
# for SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication
# authentication = "SCRAM"
# username = "root"
# password = "***"
# for x509 certificate authentication
# authentication = "X509"
# tls_ca = "ca.pem"
# tls_key = "client.pem"
# # tls_key_pwd = "changeme" # required for encrypted tls_key
# insecure_skip_verify = false
# database to store measurements and time series collections
# database = "telegraf"
# granularity can be seconds, minutes, or hours.
# configuring this value will be based on your input collection frequency.
# see https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/timeseries-collections/#create-a-time-series-collection
# granularity = "seconds"
# optionally set a TTL to automatically expire documents from the measurement collections.
# ttl = "360h"
