Struggling to execute the command in the terminal

MongoDB University M103: Basic Cluster Administration
#1

Hello,

I am struggling to execute the command to create the user in the terminal. As per me, the following command is correct

db.createUser(  {  user: "m103-application-user",    pwd: "m103-application-pass",    roles: [ { db: "applicationData", role: "readWrite" } ]  })

But it is giving me an error in bash, stating syntax error near unexpected token `{’. Please advise.

I was trying to launch another instance of MongoD. I skipped the instruction where it said I have to connect to an already running mongod instance.
