.SH PARAMETERS
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
\fBcollection\fP: A \fBmongoc_collection_t\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBdocuments\fP: An array of pointers to \fI\%bson_t\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBn_documents\fP: The length of \fBdocuments\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBreply\fP: Optional. An uninitialized \fI\%bson_t\fP populated with the insert result, or \fBNULL\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBerror\fP: An optional location for a \fBbson_error_t\fP or \fBNULL\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.sp
\fBopts\fP may be NULL or a BSON document with additional command options:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
\fBwriteConcern\fP: Construct a \fBmongoc_write_concern_t\fP and use \fBmongoc_write_concern_append\fP to add the write concern to \fBopts\fP\&. See the example code for \fBmongoc_client_write_command_with_opts\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBsessionId\fP: First, construct a \fBmongoc_client_session_t\fP with \fBmongoc_client_start_session\fP\&. You can begin a transaction with \fBmongoc_client_session_start_transaction\fP, optionally with a \fBmongoc_transaction_opt_t\fP that overrides the options inherited from \fBcollection\fP, and use \fBmongoc_client_session_append\fP to add the session to \fBopts\fP\&. See the example code for \fBmongoc_client_session_t\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBvalidate\fP: Construct a bitwise\-or of all desired \fI\%bson_validate_flags_t\fP\&. Set to \fBfalse\fP to skip client\-side validation of the provided BSON documents.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBordered\fP: set to \fBfalse\fP to attempt to insert all documents, continuing after errors.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBbypassDocumentValidation\fP: Set to \fBtrue\fP to skip server\-side schema validation of the provided BSON documents.
.UNINDENT
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Insert \fBdocuments\fP into \fBcollection\fP\&.
.sp
To insert a single document, see \fBmongoc_collection_insert_one\fP\&.
.sp
For any document that does not have an "_id" field, a \fI\%bson_oid_t\fP will be generated locally and added to the document. If you must know the inserted document\(aqs \fB_id\fP, generate it in your code and include it in the \fBdocument\fP\&. The \fB_id\fP you generate can be a \fI\%bson_oid_t\fP or any other non\-array BSON type.
.sp
If you pass a non\-NULL \fBreply\fP, it is filled out with an "insertedCount" field. If there is a server error then \fBreply\fP may contain a "writeErrors" array and/or a "writeConcernErrors" array (see Bulk Write Operations for examples). The reply must be freed with \fI\%bson_destroy()\fP\&.
.SH ERRORS
.sp
Errors are propagated via the \fBerror\fP parameter.
.SH RETURNS
.sp
Returns \fBtrue\fP if successful. Returns \fBfalse\fP and sets \fBerror\fP if there are invalid arguments or a server or network error.
.sp
A write concern timeout or write concern error is considered a failure.
