Create multiple documents from an array of values in Mongo DB - mongodb

Question

I'm new to MongoDB and I know this might sound silly to many but is there a way(s) where you can create multiple documents from an array of values. I have written some code for this, but is there any other efficient/shorter way of doing that.
tags.map(async tag => {
const tagDoc = await TagModel.create({ tag, postID })
})
Tag Schema -
const tagSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
postID: [{
type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId,
ref: "Post",
}],
tag: {
type: String,
required: true,
},
}, { timestamps: true })

Case 1 : Storing Tags in Same Collection
in mysql you have to store tags in different table , but in mongodb you can use same collection to store tags as array of string
in your post schema :
const postSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
...
tags: {
type: [String],
required: true,
}
});
when saving post =>
let post = new Post();
...
post.tags = req.body.tags; // ["Tag1","hello","Testing"];
await post.save();
Case 2 : Storing Tags in Different Collection
if you want to store tags in different collection Tag , then you can use Mongoose InsertMany()
let tags = req.body.tags ; // ["Tag1","hello","Testing"];
tagsArray = tags.map((t)=> { return {postID:post._id , tag:t}});
let tagsSaved = await Tag.insertMany(tagsArray);
console.log('tagsSaved=',tagsSaved);
