For Saving data in MongoDB using C#, you need to add the below Nuget Packages in your Source code -

1. MongoDB.Bson.2.0.0

2. MongoDB.Driver.2.0.0

using System.Configuration;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using MongoDB.Driver;
namespace M101DotNet.WebApp.Models
{
public class BlogContext
{
public const string CONNECTION_STRING_NAME = "Blog";
public const string DATABASE_NAME = "blog";
public const string POSTS_COLLECTION_NAME = "posts";
public const string USERS_COLLECTION_NAME = "users";
private static readonly IMongoClient _client;
private static readonly IMongoDatabase _database;
static BlogContext()
{
var connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[CONNECTION_STRING_NAME].ConnectionString;
_client = new MongoClient(connectionString);
_database = _client.GetDatabase(DATABASE_NAME);
}
public IMongoClient Client
{
get { return _client; }
}
public IMongoCollection Posts
{
get { return _database.GetCollection(POSTS_COLLECTION_NAME); }
}
public IMongoCollection Users
{
get { return _database.GetCollection(USERS_COLLECTION_NAME); }

Hello

For performing this action we can use MongoDB with C#

You should know that MongoDB uses BSON format to store data

Its simply a JSON kind of data storage
