Hi! Can you please provide us some more info?

The collection is already created and populated?

Mongify provides a pretty specific documentation. You just need to execute the following command:

mongify translation database.config > translation_file.rb

It'll translate your database.config file to a translation_file.rb

Once done, you can start migrating your data.

@joandvgv Thanks for jumping in. 👍

The problem is that Mongify requires instructions on how to translate the tables.

If you run mongify translation database.config > translation.rb and it produces 4000+ tables in the file, you can quickly comment or delete all the tables you don't need. This way it will leave only the tables you want to move over.

Hope that helps!

In future, is there enhancement to mongify tool related to this issue? (Mean to say, Adding specific tables , instead of deleting or commenting unnecessary tables in translation.rb file ). Thanks for your support.
