Create your Arahi AI account
Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial.
Authenticate Bird
Grant Arahi permission to read and post messages in your selected channels. You control which channels the integration can access.
Authenticate MongoDB
Grant Arahi read/write access to your database collections and records. You specify which databases and collections the integration can use.
Choose your trigger
Select the event that starts your workflow. Popular triggers include: new message received in bird or new record created in mongodb.
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires — for example, insert record in mongodb. Map the data fields between Bird and MongoDB.
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Bird and MongoDB, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 with automatic retries and error monitoring.
Why connect Bird and MongoDB?
Manually moving data between Bird and MongoDB is error-prone and eats into your team's productive hours. Connecting them through Arahi eliminates that overhead — events in one app trigger actions in the other automatically.
- Log Bird conversations to MongoDB records for auditing and compliance
- Post MongoDB record changes to Bird channels to keep your team informed
- Create MongoDB entries from Bird messages — turn chat into structured data
- Query MongoDB data via Bird commands for instant lookups without switching apps

Frequently asked questions
- How do I connect Bird to MongoDB?
- Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Bird and MongoDB via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing communication events to databases actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
- What can I automate between Bird and MongoDB?
- You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new Bird events to MongoDB actions, trigger MongoDB updates when Bird data changes, create MongoDB records from Bird events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
- Is the Bird and MongoDB integration free?
- Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Bird-to-MongoDB workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $49/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
- Is my Bird data secure when connected to MongoDB?
- Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Bird or MongoDB passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your communication data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
- Can I sync data both ways between Bird and MongoDB?
- Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Bird or MongoDB. For example, create a workflow where Bird events update MongoDB, and a separate one where MongoDB changes sync back to Bird. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
- Do I need technical skills to connect Bird and MongoDB?
- No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Bird and MongoDB, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
