Pull from MongoDB
The Pull from MongoDB step enables you to connect to your MongoDB database and access your NoSQL data in Parabola. MongoDB is a document-oriented database platform, also classified as a NoSQL database program.

Double-click on the Pull from MongoDB step and click on the blue button to Authorize. These are the following fields required to connect:
- Hostname
- Username
- Password
- Database
- Port
- Full URI (Optional) - You can opt to paste in the full URI instead of filling out the fields above.

Once you are successfully connected to MongoDB, your first collection will be pulled in automatically. You can update the imported collection by clicking on the Collection dropdown.
Custom settings
Select your desired collection from the Collection dropdown menu.
