bson.errors.InvalidDocument key must not contain '.'

    • Type: Icon: Bug Bug

    • Affects Version/s: 3.6.1

    • Environment:

      When importing data into mongo using pymongo and .insert, it would fail with the error:
      bson.errors.InvalidDocument: key <REDACTED> must not contain '.'

      If we added check_keys=False to the .insert, it would allow the data to continue to be imported:
      collection.insert(json.loads(mongo_record),check_keys=False)

      However when we swapped to using .insertmany, there is no check_keys=False option to be passed:
      collection.insert_many(mongo_records,ordered=False,bypass_document_validation=True)

      Traceback:
