Answer 1

IMPORT FROM JSON

mongoimport --db "databaseName" --collection "collectionName" --type json --file "fileName.json" --jsonArray

JSON format should be in this format. (Array of Objects)

[
    { name: "Name1", msg: "This is msg 1" },
    { name: "Name2", msg: "This is msg 2" },
    { name: "Name3", msg: "This is msg 3" }
]

IMPORT FROM CSV

mongoimport --db "databaseName" --collection "collectionName" --type csv --file "fileName.csv" --headerline
