The steps to create and manage datasets in Atlas are as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Log in to the Atlas console at https:\/\/cloud.mongodb.com.<\/li>\n
  2. Select the “Data Explorer” tab in the sidebar.<\/li>\n
  3. Click on the “Create Database” button to create a new database.<\/li>\n
  4. Enter the database name and collection name in the dialog box for creating a database, then click on the “Create” button.<\/li>\n
  5. To add a document to the dataset: click on the database name, choose the collection you want to add the document to, and then click the “Insert Document” button.<\/li>\n
  6. Fill in the fields and values in the document, then click the “Save” button to insert the document.<\/li>\n
  7. Edit documents in the dataset: select the document in the collection to be edited, click the “Edit Document” button to modify the content, then click the “Save Changes” button to save the modifications.<\/li>\n
  8. Delete documents from the dataset: Select the documents to be deleted in the collection, click on the “Delete Document” button, and confirm the deletion operation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    By following the above steps, you can create and manage datasets in Atlas. You can also use Atlas’s data import and export features to import existing data into datasets or export data from datasets to local files.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
