I had faced a challenge of losing my data from version 5.0. After some research, I was able to save my data by running some steps. In this videos, I've described the issue along with live demonstration of how I transferred data from lower version of MongoDB to latest version of MongoDB Without loosing any data. Covered data shifting between MongoDB 5.0 to MongoDB 8.0 via MongoDB 6.0 and MongoDB 7.0 .

Hope, you will find this useful. Please share your feedback.
