MongoDB Insert Field to all documents in a collection

Question

I am trying to add a new field into all documents in an existing collection.

Database name = test Collection name = teams

test.teams.update({
}
,
{
    $set: {
        "isGolden": false
    }
}
,
false,
true)

When I am trying it with MongoChef, it is giving me the following error:

What is wrong with this? Thanks

Answer 1

If you want to update all the documents, use something like this:

db.teams.update({}, {$set: {isGolden: false}}, {multi: true});

your are selecting all, setting the field isGolden to false and making this update in all documents using multi: true

With Studio 3T you were writing queries in JSON mode in which it wants JSON data but you are not writing JSON Query. You must go to InteliShell mode in which your query will execute in format that you were writing.
