Importing existing data or my own json data

Working with Data
1

I have a restaurant menu that I would like to put into my atlas cluster but want to do it the most efficient way. Instead of hand coding every item into my database myself. I am unclear as how to do this. I have worked with the sample data and it’s nice that it is there. I just want to see about building this restaurant application using ALL the awesome other things that I have learned here. Any direction on how to get my data in my cluster in order to work with it would be most appreciated.

What form has your data?

Where is it?

What is the format?

It’s written by myself in JSON format. And it’s on my local machine on a .json that I have created

Simply use https://docs.mongodb.com/database-tools/mongoimport/ to load it on your server.
