# Deploying MongoDB Helm Chart

## Introduction

Let's assume that you are creating an application and want to use mongodb to store data of your application. You can deploy mongodb using `bitnami/mongodb` Helm chart and connect it to your application.

#### Using YAML

You can configure the `values.yaml` according to your project's requirements. To learn about different parameters used in the chart, you can check [Documentation of mongodb Helm chart](https://hub.helm.sh/charts/bitnami/mongodb)

![](https://devtron-public-asset.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/images/deploy-chart/deploying-mongodb-helm-chart/yaml-mongo.jpg)

Click on `Deploy Chart` once you have finished configuring the chart.

## 3. Check the Status of Deployment

After clicking on `Deploy Chart`, you will be redirected to `App Details` page that shows the deployment status of the chart. The Status of the chart should be `Healthy`. It might take few seconds after initiating the deployment.

In case the status of the deployment is `Degraded` or takes a long time to get deployed, click on `Status` or check the logs of the pods to debug the issue.

## 4. Extract the Service name

Copy the service name, it will be used to connect your application to mongoDB.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.dashboard.devtron.ai/user-guide/chart-store/examples/deploying-mongodb-helm-chart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
