Creating a new user on the admin database of a locally installed instance of MongoDb

as @Fabio_Ramohitaj noted above, please try using formatting when you post codes.

Your problem here is the one I quoted.

MongoDB uses JSON data structure (and Javascript). Curly braces are used to denote an object, and an object has to include key-value pairs.

Yet, in your query, yours is just some string inside curlies.

two solutions exist here:

  • as @Adeola_Oladeinde2 wrote, make it a correctly formed object
  • or use square brackets and make it an array: customData: [ "some info" ]
