REST API

The REST API provides a method for accessing JSON collections in and provides driverless access to your data.

With the REST API, you can use MongoDB and SQL queries against JSON and BSON document collections, traditional relational tables, and time series data. The REST API uses MongoDB syntax and returns JSON documents.

To use the REST API, define the wire listener type to rest in the wire listener configuration file.

This graphic depicts the MongoDB and REST clients that connect to the server through the wire listener.
