 As MongoDB is a document database, there is no fixed schema information in the system. So a special collection in each MongoDB database should define the schema of all tables. Please refer the :ref:`table-definition-label` section for the details.
 
-At startup, this connector tries guessing fields' types, but it might not be correct for your collection. In that case, you need to modify it manually. ``CREATE TABLE`` and ``CREATE TABLE AS SELECT`` will create an entry for you.
+At startup, the connector tries to guess the data type of fields based on the mapping in the following table.
