Resume Token
Each change event includes an _id field, which contain a document. This
document can serve as the resume token when
starting a change stream.
Expanded Events
New in version 6.0.
Starting in MongoDB 6.0, change streams support change notifications for DDL
events, like the createIndexes and
dropIndexes events. To include expanded
events in a change stream, create the change stream cursor using the
showExpandedEvents option.
For example:
let cur = db.names.aggregate( [ { $changeStream: { showExpandedEvents: true } } ] ) cur.next()
