Technical Notes for the MongoDB component.

Changelog

2.0.0 (September 16, 2026)

  • Revitalized the component with modern standards:
    • Updated Node.js engine requirement to 24.x (from 18.x)
    • Updated core dependencies to latest versions:
      • mongodb: 3.5.9 -> 7.6.0 (Unified driver supporting MongoDB 4.0+)
      • uuid: 8.2.0 -> 11.1.1
      • elasticio-sailor-nodejs: 2.7.1 -> 2.7.9
    • Removed legacy elasticio-node dependency and transitioned to local utilities
    • Added ObjectId support to Delete By Unique Criteria action
    • Fixed metadata generation failure when documents contain null or undefined fields
    • Sorted collection and database dropdown lists alphabetically across all actions
    • Moved Document ID field in Upsert By ID action from step configuration to input message metadata mapping level, enabling dynamic ID mapping from previous flow steps
    • Unified and improved ObjectId handling across all actions:
      • Direct ID actions (Lookup By ID, Delete By ID, Upsert By ID) now accept both raw 24-character hexadecimal strings and ObjectId('...') template wrappers
      • Criteria actions now support multiple ObjectIds, nested filter operators ($eq, $in, $or, $and), and double-quote syntax
      • Extended ObjectId template conversion to Aggregate pipelines and Bulk Write operations
    • Potentially breaking change: Simplified Credentials by removing the manual mongoVersion selection (now automatically handled by unified driver)

1.6.0 (November 30, 2023)

  • Added support for MongoDB latest versions (incl. 7.0) updating MongoDB Node.js driver to the latest version (6.2.0)

      • keepAlive
