SyntaxError: identifier starts immediately after numeric literal – MongoDB Error










0















I'm trying to run this MongoDB script:



db.test_collection.insert( 
_id: ObjectId(7df78ad8902c),
title: ‘Mongo Db practice’,
description: ‘this class is about MongoDB’
)


and keep getting this error:



SyntaxError: identifier starts immediately after numeric literal @(shell):1:42


I think it has to do with with the _id and the ObjectId(7df78ad8902c) because when I put ObjectId("stringliteral") the error message changes.



Any help is appreciated.

          try like this



          db.test_collection.insert( 
          _id: ObjectId('7df78ad8902c'),
          title: "Mongo Db practice",
          description: "this class is about MongoDB"
          )


          For best practices don't add _id like 7df78ad8902c it's not a correct mongoId. You can have issue with it in future.
