      As stated above, I have a struct like this
       

      type User struct {
    ID string `json:"id"`
    Username string `json:"username"`
    FirstName string `json:"first_name"`
    LastName string `json:"last_name"`
    FullName string `json:"full_name"`
    Email string `json:"email"`
    Avatar string `json:"avatar"`
    Raw map[string]interface{} `json:"raw"` // Raw data
}

       

       And then i tried to push a variable of this type to my database like this

      var usr User
// Some works here, populating the usr variable

client, err := mongo.NewClient("mongodb://localhost:27017")
err = client.Connect(context.TODO())


collection := mongo.Client.Database("foo").Collection("bar")
ctx := context.Background()
result, err := collection.InsertOne(ctx, usr)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(result.InsertedID)

       However, the program create an error like this 

      cannot transform type structs.User to a *bson.Document

      After some trial I found out that if the Raw field is populated it will panic like that, but if I set it to {{nil }}everything  will go back to normal.
