# mongodb
Allows `SELECT` queries to be performed on data that is stored on a remote MongoDB server.
**Syntax**
``` sql
mongodb(host:port, database, collection, user, password, structure [, options])
```
**Arguments**
- `host:port` — MongoDB server address.
- `database` — Remote database name.
- `collection` — Remote collection name.
- `user` — MongoDB user.
- `password` — User password.
- `structure` - The schema for the ClickHouse table returned from this function.
- `options` - MongoDB connection string options (optional parameter).
**Returned Value**
A table object with the same columns as the original MongoDB table.
**Examples**
Suppose we have a collection named `my_collection` defined in a MongoDB database named `test`, and we insert a couple of documents:
```sql
db.createUser({user:"test_user",pwd:"password",roles:[{role:"readWrite",db:"test"}]})
db.createCollection("my_collection")
db.my_collection.insertOne(
{ log_type: "event", host: "120.5.33.9", command: "check-cpu-usage -w 75 -c 90" }
)
db.my_collection.insertOne(
{ log_type: "event", host: "120.5.33.4", command: "system-check"}
)
```
Let's query the collection using the `mongodb` table function:
```sql
SELECT * FROM mongodb(
'127.0.0.1:27017',
'test',
'my_collection',
'test_user',
'password',
'log_type String, host String, command String',
'connectTimeoutMS=10000'
)
```
