Java code to create is similar to How to add an array to a MongoDB document using Java?

Is there any code to create ObjectId("") programmatically in java?

the objectid is created when you insert an object in the database. — njzk2

To create objectId programmatically, use the following syntax

import org.bson.types.ObjectId;


ObjectId id1 = new ObjectId();
ObjectId id2 = ObjectId.get();

// In case you want to mention the parent ID itself,
ObjectId id3 = new ObjectId("5399aba6e4b0ae375bfdca88");

To create objectId programmatically, use the following syntax

Map<String,String> objectId = new HashMap<String,String>();
objectId.put("$oid","5399aba6e4b0ae375bfdca88");

Then insert into mongodb.
