Providing custom _id for documents

[AdamPzpn]

Trying inserting data into foregin table ends with ignore for _id parameter.

Example:
INSERT INTO warehouse VALUES (uuid_generate_v4()::text, 2, 'Laptop', '2015-11-11T08:13:10Z');

Creates:
"_id" : ObjectId("53720b1904864dc1f5a571a0"),
"warehouse_id" : 2,
"warehouse_name" : "Laptop",
"warehouse_created" : ISODate("2015-11-11T08:13:10Z")

How can I insert literal _id as string into entity?

Hi, Can you please let us know: 1. How is your table defined on Mongo and 2. and the definition for it as a foreign table on PostgreSQL. Regards, Jeevan Ladhe

Hi @AdamPzpn ,

Providing custom _id for a document not supported. Currently, mongo_fdw ignores the value of the first column which is the row identifier in MongoDb (_id) and lets MongoDB insert the unique value for that column.

We will do more studies to try to support this feature in near future.

I saw the last comment was from 1/2022. Is custom _id for a document supported now?
