How to rename a MongoDB collection?

// plain

MongoDB collections can be renamed using the renameCollection() method.

db.collection.renameCollection("newCollectionName")

This method takes two parameters:

1. The current collection name
2. The new collection name

The output of the above example code will be:

{ "ok" : 1 }

This indicates that the collection has been successfully renamed.
