We need to keep
userId
for old and new users as well for backward compatibility with the oldermongosh
versions. If a user installed a newer version first, with code that is currently inmain
onlyanonymousId
will be saved to a new config file. If the user then downgrades the version and tries to runmongosh
, they will get theAssertionError: You must pass either an "anonymousId" or a "userId".
error, because the config file stores onlyanonymousId
, but the older version ofmongosh
doesn't know what it is and needsuserId
for telemetry.
