Create a View from Pipeline Results
On this page
To quickly access the results of an aggregation pipeline without having to run it, you can create a view on MongoDB Compass. Views are read-only, so they can help keep your data secure by limiting user access to a predefined set of results.
About this Task
Creating a view does not save the aggregation pipeline itself.
Steps
1
Click the Save drop-down button
In the aggregation pipeline pane, click the Save drop-down button and select Create view.
2
Enter a name for your view
The view name must be between 6 and 1024 characters long.
3
Create your view
Click the Create button to create your view. Compass creates a view from your pipeline results in the same database where the pipeline was created and displays saved views with the icon.
