$isoDayOfWeek
Definition
Extracts iso day of week using the host calendar.
Expression operator · Dates · Studio Visual: not exposed. Studio validates the complete expression separately.
Syntax
{ "$isoDayOfWeek": <expression> }
Replace angle-bracket placeholders with expressions or values.
Expression supplying the value to process. A field reference such as "$price" reads from the current document.
The value goes directly after the operator name; do not add an input wrapper.
Behavior
The following observations use the example expression below. Each row substitutes one argument while retaining the other example arguments. A missing field differs from an explicit null; the result shown is what Core actually returned.
Date cases use JVM timezone America/Toronto and locale en-IN. Named date operators with timezone support generally default to UTC; older single-date extraction operators can use the JVM timezone.
For the input argument:
| Input case | Supplied value | Result |
|---|---|---|
| null | null | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: null |
| missing | Field absent | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: null |
| decimal | 2.5 | 3 (int32) |
| numeric string | "12" | 3 (int32) |
| text | "hello" | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: hello |
| boolean | true | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: true |
| typed date | {"$date":"2026-01-15T15:00:00Z"} | 4 (int32) |
| empty array | [] | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: [] |
| numeric array | [1,2,3] | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: [1, 2, 3] |
| object | {"x":1} | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: Document{{x=1}} |
Argument handling
| Invocation | Result |
|---|---|
| {"$isoDayOfWeek":[]} | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: [] |
| {"$isoDayOfWeek":{"unexpected":1}} | Error — $isoDayOfWeek: expected date, date-string, or timestamp for field '', but got: {unexpected=1} |
Examples
Expression:
{
"$isoDayOfWeek": {
"$toDate": "2024-01-02T03:04:05.006Z"
}
}

Observed SrotaX result: 1 (int32).
Detailed input cases
Expand the complete argument-by-argument test matrix
Each table changes only the indicated argument from the example above. Other arguments retain their baseline values. Values normally come from the input field probe; literal configuration arguments are replaced directly. “Missing” means the field is absent, not explicitly null. Numeric strings are strings, not numbers.

Verification
This page records 22 executed cases. It covers individual argument substitutions, not every cross-product of arguments, locale, daylight-saving transitions, numeric overflow, collation or resource limits. No untested behavior is guaranteed.

MongoDB differences
Compared with MongoDB 9.0.4: 1 exact BSON matches, 12 both rejected, 9 value/type/acceptance differences, 0 object-field-order differences.
“Exact” includes numeric BSON types and object key order. A value of 3 as int32 differs from 3.0 as double. Object-field-order differences are reported separately; object key ordering is not enforced by the engine regression baseline. Both rejected does not mean the error codes or messages match. This is finite-case evidence, not full compatibility certification.
