You would POST a JSON body with the filter parameters you wish to use.

[This blog post](https://blog.dreamfactory.com/blog/bid/339945/NoSQL-No-Problem-MongoDB-Specifics) covers it in detail. [This forum thread](https://community.dreamfactory.com/t/dsp-mongodb-filter/1275/2?u=jeffreystables) also provides examples.

E.g., from the blog, to retrieve records where `date > 2012-01-01T00:00:00.000` the included filter payload would be

```
{"filter": { "date": { "$gt": "2012-01-01T00:00:00.000" } } }

```
