FAQ from MongoDB MCP Server

What is the purpose of the generateErd function?

The generateErd function analyzes the structure of your MongoDB database and generates an Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) to visualize the relationships between collections.

What is the purpose of the generateQuery function?

The generateQuery function takes a natural language description of a query and generates the corresponding MongoDB query, leveraging AI to understand the database schema.

What input parameters are required for the generateErd function?

The generateErd function requires the 'database' parameter and optionally accepts 'collections' (an array of collection names) and 'format' ('mermaid' or 'json').

What input parameters are required for the generateQuery function?

The generateQuery function requires 'database', 'collection', and 'description' parameters. It also optionally accepts 'type' ('mongodb' or 'mongoose') and 'includeExplanation' (boolean).

How do I integrate this server with Claude Desktop?

To integrate with Claude Desktop, you need to configure the claude_desktop_config.json file by adding an MCP server configuration as described in the README, pointing to the server's executable and MongoDB connection string.
