Hello,
 
I am new to mongoDB and C# and I am having some issue with inserting data from string list into mongoDB using C#
 
Class
  public class Person
{
   public List<string> Title = new List<string>();
    public List<string> FirstName = new List<string>();
    public List<string> LastName = new List<string>();
    public List<int> Age = new List<int>();
}
 
Test Data
 
p.Title.Add("Mr.");
p.Title.Add("Mrs");
p.FirstName.Add("Person 1");
p.FirstName.Add("Person 2");
p.LastName.Add("Last Name 1");
p.LastName.Add("Last Name 2");
p.Age.Add(34);
p.Age.Add(30); 
 
 
  var connectionString = "mongodb://localhost";
var client = new MongoClient(connectionString);
var server = client.GetServer();
var database = server.GetDatabase("Test2");
var customer = database.GetCollection("Address");
 
  BsonDocument document2 = new BsonDocument {
{ "Address", "Address 1" },
{ "Members", new BsonArray {

new BsonDocument
{
   { "Name", p.FirstName.ToString())},
   { "Age", p.Age.ToString())}
}
}}
};
 
 customer.Insert(document2);
 
it inserts data but for Name & Age it does not insert list data just inserts System.Collections.Generic.List1
 
I would like to enter data like in bellow JSON
 
{
    "Address" : "this is address 1",
    "Family Members" : [
{
    "Name" : "Person 1",
    "age" : 34
},
{
    "Name" : "Person 2",
    "age" : 30
}
]
 
 person can vary it might be 2 or 3 or 4
 
Any help? please
 
Thank you
