# mongodb.collstats.insert.count

**How many X documents are we inserting per Y time in our MongoDB Cluster.**

And how do I visualize that?

What does mongodb.collstats.insert.count show?

The [Documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/exported-fields-mongodb.html) only says:

Is it inserts per second?

Inserts per minute?

What is the unit?

Is one event equal to one document being inserted?

My team is interested in knowing the total document insert rate per unit of time of our MongoDB cluster.

How can I visualize this for them? I have a graph that shows "Median of mongodb.collstats.insert.count", but we have no idea what the rate is. Is it 10000 per second? Per Minute?

Me and my team are still interested in knowing the insert rate in our MongoDB cluster.
