MongoDB query to update a MongoDB row with only the objectid

Use UPDATE to update and SET to set the new values. Let us create a collection with documents −

> db.demo34.insertOne({"StudentFirstName":"Chris","StudentAge":24});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e1758b4cfb11e5c34d898cd")
}
> db.demo34.insertOne({"StudentFirstName":"David","StudentAge":23});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e1758bdcfb11e5c34d898ce")
}
> db.demo34.insertOne({"StudentFirstName":"Bob","StudentAge":20});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e1758c6cfb11e5c34d898cf")
}

Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −

> db.demo34.find();

This will produce the following output −

{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e1758b4cfb11e5c34d898cd"), "StudentFirstName" : "Chris", "StudentAge" : 24 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e1758bdcfb11e5c34d898ce"), "StudentFirstName" : "David", "StudentAge" : 23 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e1758c6cfb11e5c34d898cf"), "StudentFirstName" : "Bob", "StudentAge" : 20 }

Following is the query to update MongoDB row −

> db.demo34.update({_id:ObjectId("5e1758bdcfb11e5c34d898ce")},
... {$set:{"StudentFirstName" : "Mike","StudentAge" : 19}});
WriteResult({ "nMatched" : 1, "nUpserted" : 0, "nModified" : 1 })

Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −

> db.demo34.find();

This will produce the following output −

{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e1758b4cfb11e5c34d898cd"), "StudentFirstName" : "Chris", "StudentAge" : 24 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e1758bdcfb11e5c34d898ce"), "StudentFirstName" : "Mike", "StudentAge" : 19 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e1758c6cfb11e5c34d898cf"), "StudentFirstName" : "Bob", "StudentAge" : 20 }
