Migrate your MongoDB® database to Northflank

You can import your existing MongoDB® database to Northflank by creating and uploading a dump of your database, or providing a connection string to your existing database.

Imports will be more reliable if the database you are importing to is the same, or a newer, version of MongoDB as the source database you are exporting from.

warning

Both methods of importing a database will erase all existing user databases in the Northflank addon, if there are any.

You should first create a Northflank MongoDB addon
