Mongoose: save nested JSON with various schemas

Question

everything. I want to save JSON documents with many levels, for example, I have nested JSON with these elements:

{   
 "created":"2015-11-10 15:47:41.107Z",
 "id_user" : "01",
 "version" : "1"
 "record" : {
    "name" : "Carl Powers",
    "reference" : [{ "url" : "www.test.com", "created" : "2015-11-10 15:47:41.107Z"}] 
 }
}

I want to save this JSON using different schemes for each element, because I need different collections in my MongoDB, I don't want a scheme with inline elements.

var ElementSchema = new Schema({
 created : {type: Date, default: Date.now},
 id_user : String,
 version : { type: Number, min: 0 },
 record : {type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: 'recordSchema'}
});

var recordSchema = new Schema({
    name : String,
    reference : [{type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: 'referenceSchema'}]
});

var referenceSchema = new Schema({
    url : String,
    created : {type: Date, default: Date.now}
  });

You can save my JSON example, completely, at a time, using mongoose. Do I need to enter the identifiers of each element? In this case, what is the best way to create each identifier and how to put in each element after receiving JSON?

This can be solved using subdocuments, here is an example:

var referenceSchema = new Schema({
    url : String,
    created : {type: Date, default: Date.now}
});

var recordSchema = new Schema({
    name : String,
    reference : [referenceSchema]
});

var ElementSchema = new Schema({
 created : {type: Date, default: Date.now},
 id_user : String,
 version : { type: Number, min: 0 },
 record : recordSchema
});

Element :

var element = new ElementSchema({
   created: 'date',
   id_user: 'user-id',
   version: 2
   record: {
      name: 'name',
      reference: [{
         url: 'url1',
         created: 'date1'
      }, {
         url: 'url2',
         created: 'date2'
      }]
   }
});
