Delete All Documents that Match a Condition
You can specify criteria, or filters, that identify the documents to delete. The filters use the same syntax as read operations.
To specify equality conditions, use <field>:<value>
expressions in the
query filter document:
{ <field1>: <value1>, ... }
To specify equality conditions, use <field>:<value>
expressions in the
query filter document:
{ <field1>: <value1>, ... }
To specify equality conditions, construct a filter using the Eq method:
Builders<BsonDocument>.Filter.Eq(<field>, <value>);
To specify equality conditions, use the com.mongodb.client.model.Filters.eq method to create the query filter document:
and(eq( <field1>, <value1>), eq( <field2>, <value2>) ...)
To specify equality conditions, use the
com.mongodb.client.model.Filters.eq_ method to create the
query filter document:
and(eq( <field1>, <value1>), eq( <field2>, <value2>) ...)
To specify equality conditions, use <field>:<value>
expressions in the
query filter document:
{ <field1>: <value1>, ... }
To specify equality conditions, use <field>:<value>
expressions in the

To specify equality conditions, use <field> => <value>
expressions in the

{ <field1> => <value1>, ... }
To specify equality conditions, use <field> => <value>
expressions in the
query filter document:
[ <field1> => <value1>, ... ]
To specify equality conditions, use <field>:<value>

{ <field1>: <value1>, ... }
To specify equality conditions, use <field> => <value>
expressions in the
query filter document:

To specify equality conditions, use the
com.mongodb.client.model.Filters.eq_ method to create the
query filter document:
and(equal(<field1>, <value1>), equal(<field2>, <value2>) ...)
A query filter document can use the query operators to specify conditions in the following form:
{ <field1>: { <operator1>: <value1> }, ... }
A query filter document can use the query operators to specify conditions in the following form:

In addition to the equality condition, MongoDB provides various query operators to specify filter conditions. Use the com.mongodb.client.model.Filters helper methods to facilitate the creation of filter documents. For example:

A query filter document can use the query operators to specify conditions in the following form:
{ <field1> => { <operator1> => <value1> }, ... }
A query filter document can use the query operators to specify conditions in the following form:
[ <field1> => [ <operator1> => <value1> ], ... ]
A query filter document can use the query operators to specify conditions in the following form:

To delete all documents that match a deletion criteria, pass a filter parameter to the deleteMany() method.
The following example removes all documents from the inventory
collection where the status field equals "A":
db.inventory.deleteMany({ status : "A" })
var filter = Builders<BsonDocument>.Filter.Eq("status", "A"); var result = collection.DeleteMany(filter);
result, err := coll.DeleteMany( context.TODO(), bson.D{ {"status", "A"}, }, )
deleteManyPublisher = collection.deleteMany(eq("status", "A"));
collection.deleteMany(eq("status", "A"));
await db.inventory.delete_many({"status": "A"})
await db.collection('inventory').deleteMany({ status: 'A' });
$db->coll("inventory")->delete_many( { status => "A" } );
$deleteResult = $db->inventory->deleteMany(['status' => 'A']);
db.inventory.delete_many({"status": "A"})
client[:inventory].delete_many(status: 'A')
collection.deleteMany(equal("status", "A")).execute()
The method returns a document with the status of the operation. For
more information and examples, see
deleteMany().
Upon successful execution, the
IMongoCollection.DeleteMany()
method returns an instance of
DeleteResult whose
DeletedCount property contains the number of documents
that matched the filter.
Upon successful execution, the
Collection.DeleteMany
function returns an instance of
DeleteResult whose
DeletedCount property contains the number of documents
that matched the filter.
com.mongodb.reactivestreams.client.MongoCollection.deleteMany
returns a Publisher
object of type com.mongodb.client.result.DeleteResult if
successful. Returns an instance of com.mongodb.MongoException if unsuccessful.
The com.mongodb.client.MongoCollection.deleteMany method returns an instance of com.mongodb.client.result.DeleteResult with the status of the operation.
The delete_many
coroutine asynchronously returns an instance of
pymongo.results.DeleteResult with the status of the
operation.
deleteMany() returns a
promise that provides a result. The result.deletedCount
property contains the number of documents that matched the
filter.
Upon successful execution, the
delete_many() method
returns an instance of
MongoDB::DeleteResult whose
deleted_count attribute contains the number of documents
that matched the filter.
Upon successful execution, the
deleteMany()
method returns an instance of
MongoDB\\DeleteResult
whose getDeletedCount()
method returns the number of documents that matched the filter.
The delete_many
method returns an instance of
pymongo.results.DeleteResult with the status of the
operation.
Upon successful execution, the
delete_many() method
returns an instance of
Mongo::Operation::Result, whose
deleted_count attribute contains the number of documents
that matched the filter.
Upon successful execution, the
collection.deleteMany() method
returns an
Observable
with a single element with a DeleteResult type parameter or with
an com.mongodb.MongoException.
Delete Only One Document that Matches a Condition
To delete at most a single document that matches a specified
filter (even though multiple documents may match the specified
filter) use the db.collection.deleteOne() method.
The following example deletes the first document where status is
"D":
MongoDB Compass provides a simple way to delete a document
from a collection. The following example shows how to delete
the document with item equal to paper from the
inventory collection:
Note
In this example we are using the Compass Table View to delete the document. The deletion process using the Compass List View follows a very similar approach.
For more information on the differences between Table View and List View in Compass, refer to the Compass documentation.
To delete at most a single document that matches a specified filter (even though multiple documents may match the specified filter) use the IMongoCollection.DeleteOne() method.

Click the Table button in the top navigation to access the Table View:
![Compass Table View button]()
Use the Compass query bar to locate the target document.
Copy the following filter document into the query bar and click Find:
{ item: "paper" } ![Compass Find button]()
Hover over the document and click the trash icon which appears on the right-hand side:
![Compass Delete Document button]()
After clicking the delete button, the document is flagged for deletion and Compass asks for confirmation that you want to remove the document:
![Compass Confirm Deletion button]()
Click Delete to confirm. Compass deletes the document from the collection.
var filter = Builders<BsonDocument>.Filter.Eq("status", "D"); var result = collection.DeleteOne(filter);
result, err := coll.DeleteOne( context.TODO(), bson.D{ {"status", "D"}, }, )

Delete a Document with MongoDB Atlas
Note
You can delete only one document at a time in the MongoDB Atlas UI.
To delete multiple documents, connect to your
Atlas deployment from mongosh or a MongoDB driver
and follow the examples on this page for your preferred method.
The example in this section uses the sample movies dataset. To learn how to load the sample dataset into your MongoDB Atlas deployment, see Load Sample Data.
To delete a document in MongoDB Atlas, follow these steps:
Specify a query filter document.
Optionally, you can specify a query filter document in the Filter field. A query filter document uses query operators to specify search conditions.
Copy the following query filter document into the Filter search bar and click Apply:
{ genres: "Action", rated: { $in: [ "PG", "PG-13" ] } }
This query filter returns all documents in the sample_mflix.movies
collection where genres equals Action and rated equals either
PG or PG-13.
To learn more, see Create, View, Update, and Delete Documents.
Delete Behavior
Indexes
Delete operations do not drop indexes, even if deleting all documents from a collection.
Atomicity
All write operations in MongoDB are atomic on the level of a single document. For more information on MongoDB and atomicity, see Atomicity and Transactions.
Write Acknowledgement
With write concerns, you can specify the level of acknowledgment requested from MongoDB for write operations. For details, see Write Concern.
