You can insert multiple documents into a collection by using the synchronous InsertMany() method or the asynchronous InsertManyAsync() method.

Example

The following example inserts multiple documents into the restaurants collection.

Select the Asynchronous or Synchronous tab to see the corresponding code.

// Helper method to generate 5 new restaurants
var restaurants = GenerateDocuments();
await _restaurantsCollection.InsertManyAsync(restaurants);

For a fully runnable example of the InsertManyAsync() operation, see the InsertManyAsync code sample.

// Helper method to generate 5 new restaurants
var restaurants = GenerateDocuments();
_restaurantsCollection.InsertMany(restaurants);

For a fully runnable example of the InsertMany() operation, see the InsertMany code sample.

After running either of the preceding full examples, the output is as follows:

Number of restaurants found before insert: 0
Inserting documents...
Number of restaurants inserted: 5
