From personnal experience, what I understand is that MongoRepository is used only for basic queries. If you need any operation other than find, you'll need to use MongoTemplate, which is complete enough to make all the operations possible in the mongo shell

Here you will find the documentation on MongoTemplate: https://docs.spring.io/spring-data/mongodb/docs/current/api/org/springframework/data/mongodb/core/MongoTemplate.html

After testing, it seems you can execute any mongo shell command, even the ones not documented, i.e. the distinct function.
