MongoDB Source

Consume data from MongoDB.

If you enable the persistentTailTracking property, the consumer keeps track of the last consumed message and, on the next restart, the consumption restarts from that message. If you enable persistentTailTracking, you must provide a value for the tailTrackIncreasingField property (by default it is optional).

If you disable the persistentTailTracking property, the consumer consumes the whole collection and waits in idle for new data to consume.

The collection that provides the data must be a capped collection.
