  • Behavior
getnonce

Deprecated since version 4.0.

Client libraries use getnonce to generate a one-time password for authentication.

Applications should not invoke getnonce directly.

This command will be removed in a future release.

Starting in MongoDB 4.2, if the client that issued getnonce disconnects before the operation completes, MongoDB marks getnonce for termination using killOp.
