Query Data on Atlas by Using Atlas Search
MongoDB Atlas Search provides a powerful way to query our data using a rich set of features. To use MongoDB $exists in an Atlas Search query, we can use the $search stage in our aggregation pipeline. Here’s how we can use it:
Example: Using $exists in Atlas Search
Let’s Write a MongoDB query to find all student documents that have the “grade” field using the Atlas Search’s $search aggregation stage.
db.students.aggregate([
{
$search: {
"compound": {
"must": [
{ "exists": { "path": "grade" } }
]
}
}
}
])
Expalnation: In the query uses MongoDB’s Atlas Search to return student documents where the “grade” field exists, using the $search aggregation stage with a compound operator to ensure the presence of the “grade” field.
