# Get Raw Document by ID

| Step Details |
| --- |
| **Introduced in Version** | 5.13 |
| **Last Modified in Version** | 5.13 |
| **Location** | Integration > MongoDB |

This Step fetches a single document after a User specifies a Document ID. The difference between this Step and **Get Document ID** is that it retrieves a string representation of what is in the Database instead of deserializing it into a chosen type.

### Prerequisites

- Install the [MongoDB](https://documentation.decisions.com/docs/mongodb) Module.
- **For v9 Users:** Add a [Project Dependency](https://documentation.decisions.com/docs/project-dependencies#add-a-project-dependency-or-enable-a-module) once the MongoDB Module is installed.
