Time to Complete: 8 minutes
Prerequisites
To complete this tutorial you will need a MongoDB Atlas cluster. Refer to the Create a Cluster documentation for instructions on creating an Atlas cluster.
Load the Sample Data into Your Atlas Cluster
Atlas provides sample data you can load into your Atlas cluster. To load sample data into your cluster:
