mongodb c# how to work with BSON document

There are a few ways, but here’s one:

 // build some test data
 BsonArray dataFields = new BsonArray { new BsonDocument { 
     { "ID" , ObjectId.GenerateNewId()}, { "NAME", "ID"}, {"TYPE", "Text"} } };
 BsonDocument nested = new BsonDocument {
     { "name", "John Doe" },
     { "fields", dataFields },
     { "address", new BsonDocument {
             { "street", "123 Main St." },
             { "city", "Madison" },
             { "state", "WI" },
             { "zip", 53711}
         }
     }
 };
 // grab the address from the document,
 // subdocs as a BsonDocument
 var address = nested["address"].AsBsonDocument;
 Console.WriteLine(address["city"].AsString); 
 // or, jump straight to the value ...
 Console.WriteLine(nested["address"]["city"].AsString);
 // loop through the fields array
 var allFields = nested["fields"].AsBsonArray ;
 foreach (var fields in allFields)
 {
     // grab a few of the fields:
     Console.WriteLine("Name: {0}, Type: {1}", 
         fields["NAME"].AsString, fields["TYPE"].AsString);
 }

You can often use the string indexer ["name-of-property"] to walk through the fields and sub document fields. Then, using the AsXYZ properties to cast the field value to a particular type as shown above.
