Hi everyone,

I’m trying to connect MongoDB to Celonis. At first, I assumed that I’d need to use a custom JDBC driver (based on a thread that I’ve read here and the Celonis documentation).

However, when I reached the step to select the “Database Type” in the connector, I couldn’t find a fitting option for MongoDB.

Has anyone successfully set this up?

  • Should I use a specific Database Type in this case?
  • Or is there another workaround to get MongoDB connected?

Thanks for any tips or guidance! 

Hi ​@michael.hamme13, 

 

I’ve not connected to MangoDB myself, but can share some experiences for other drivers. 

Since the Database is not directly supported by Celonis, I assume you’re right to add the custom driver to the extractor. 
In the section ‘select database type’ in the data connection, choose the SQL variant that fits the best for your use case. In my experience, the Microsoft SQL is a safe choice. It’s SQL-92 Compliant, as is MangoDB SQL. If this doesn’t work, you can try other variants easily. 

I hope this helps!

Best regards,
Jan-peter
