Syntax error MongoDB query for exact match on multiple document fields

MongoDB query for exact match on multiple document fields

For exact match, set the values to be matched inside MongoDB $in(). Let us first create a collection with documents −

> db.demo422.insertOne({"Name":"Chris","Marks":34});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e73a4059822da45b30346e1")
}
> db.demo422.insertOne({"Name":"Chris","Marks":56});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e73a40a9822da45b30346e2")
}
> db.demo422.insertOne({"Name":"David","Marks":78});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e73a4149822da45b30346e3")
}
> db.demo422.insertOne({"Name":"Sam","Marks":45});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e73a41e9822da45b30346e4")
}
> db.demo422.insertOne({"Name":"David","Marks":89});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e73a4239822da45b30346e5")
}

Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −

> db.demo422.find();

This will produce the following output −

{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e73a4059822da45b30346e1"), "Name" : "Chris", "Marks" : 34 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e73a40a9822da45b30346e2"), "Name" : "Chris", "Marks" : 56 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e73a4149822da45b30346e3"), "Name" : "David", "Marks" : 78 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e73a41e9822da45b30346e4"), "Name" : "Sam", "Marks" : 45 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e73a4239822da45b30346e5"), "Name" : "David", "Marks" : 89 }

Following is the query to get records with exact match on multiple document fields −

> db.demo422.find({'$and': [{'Name': {'$in': ['Chris', 'David']}, 'Marks': {'$in': [34,89]}}]});

This will produce the following output −

{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e73a4059822da45b30346e1"), "Name" : "Chris", "Marks" : 34 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e73a4239822da45b30346e5"), "Name" : "David", "Marks" : 89 }
