Include all existing fields and add new fields to document

by

In 4.2+, you can use the $set aggregation pipeline operator which is nothing other than an alias to $addFieldsadded in 3.4

The $addFields stage is equivalent to a $project stage that explicitly specifies all existing fields in the input documents and adds the new fields.

db.collection.aggregate([
    { "$addFields": { "custom_field": "$obj.obj_field1" } }
])
