MySQL Shell 8 and automatically generated document IDs
Why I'm getting error ERROR: 5115: Document is missing a required field in MySQL Shell 8.0.11 connected to MySQL Server 5.7.22? Consider the following session in which I'm first connecting to the server, creating a new schema, then a collection inside the schema and finally trying to create a document without explicitly providing identifier:

ERROR: 5115: Document is missing a required field
In this case MySQL Shell should generate the identifier as specified in the manual (see MySQL 5.7 Reference manual, chapter 19.4.4.2 Add Documents), where it's written:
Each document requires an identifier field called_id
. The value of the_id
field must be unique among all documents in the same collection. If the document passed to theadd()
method does not contain the_id
field, MySQL Shell automatically inserts a field into the document and sets the value to a generated universal unique identifier (UUID).
When connected to MySQL 8.0 Server there is no such problem:

I also tried connecting MySQL Server 5.7 with MySQL Shell 1.0 and again no problem:

The post MySQL Document Store Document IDs. by Dave Stokes is the top (and in fact only) result in Google for the error (when searching for exact match with double quotes). It points to chapter 5.1.1 Understanding Document IDs of X DevAPI User Guide, in which it's written:
X DevAPI relies on server based document ID generation, added in MySQL version 8.0.11, which results in sequentially increasing document IDs across all clients.
...
Whenever an_id
field value is not present in an inserted document, the server generates an_id
value.
Which quite explains the issue. Apparently, MySQL Shell 8.0.11 expects that the server would generate the identifier (for _id column) without considering whether the Server is 5.7 or 8.0, which for me is a bug to report later.
Update 2018-05-16: Oracle verified my bug report (see bug 90876). Hope it would be fixed.
