MongoDB uses a special representation of JSON they call BSON. According to their docs, timestamps should be represented with the $timestamp token, along with 't' and 'i' portions for them to be interpreted correctly by the drivers: https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/mongodb-extended-json/#timestamp. It requires turning the date into an epoch.
For dates: https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/mongodb-extended-json/#data_date. Could you guys try that? *Raúl Kripalani* PMC & Committer @ Apache Ignite, Apache Camel | Integration, Big Data and Messaging Engineer http://about.me/raulkripalani | http://www.linkedin.com/in/raulkripalani Blog: raul.io | twitter: @raulvk <https://twitter.com/raulvk> On Thu, Mar 3, 2016 at 3:47 PM, gramanero <graman...@gmail.com> wrote: > I would be interested in knowing the answer on how to do this as well.
