Restore a MongoDB Export

A clear, step-by-step guide that details the process of restoring a MongoDB export from your replica set. This overview focuses on executing the essential commands to re-import your exported data, ensuring it is accurately restored and fully accessible—all without delving into advanced re-import configurations or long-term data management tasks.

Here's the primary node—your central hub for restoring data.

Next, check out the exports inventory—your handy list of all exports available for this replicaset and other MongoDB replicasets.

When you’re ready to restore an export, simply drag it from the exports inventory onto the primary node.

Then, type "restore me" to confirm your action and proceed with the process.

Instantly, a REST API command is generated—your key to automating future restore setups with your DEVOPS tool.

When everything is confirmed, press Submit to kick off the restore process.

You'll see a status update indicating that the restore process has started, followed by another update confirming that the export was restored successfully.

And there you have it—your export is now restored and ready for action!
