Inserting a birthdate with Date in NoSql - mongodb

Question

I am trying to insert a birthday with Date type in NoSQL like this
db.employees.insertOne({
"Name": "Alison Davison",
birthday: Date("Apr 05, 1975"),
"Address": "874 W. Oak Place",
"City": "Gary",
"State": "Indiana",
Position:{Name: "Customer Support", Remote: true, Full Time: true}
});
And is throwing this error
uncaught exception: SyntaxError: missing : after property id :
#(shell):7:63

Answer 1

You need to use the supported format in the Date constructor.
new Date("<YYYY-mm-dd>") returns the ISODate with the specified date.
new Date("<YYYY-mm-ddTHH:MM:ss>") specifies the datetime in the client’s local timezone and returns the ISODate with the specified datetime in UTC.
new Date("<YYYY-mm-ddTHH:MM:ssZ>") specifies the datetime in UTC and returns the ISODate with the specified datetime in UTC.
new Date(<integer>) specifies the datetime as milliseconds since the Unix epoch (Jan 1, 1970), and returns the resulting ISODate instance.
The format you tried is not supported default.

And please use the below. You have a space in your key. Enclose it with quotes.
{
"Name": "Alison Davison",
"birthday": new Date("1975-04-05"),
"Address": "874 W. Oak Place",
"City": "Gary",
"State": "Indiana",
"Position": {
"Name": "Customer Support",
"Remote": true,
"Full Time": true
}
}
