 .. expression:: $ifNull
 
-   Evaluates an expression and returns the value of the expression if
-   the expression evaluates to a non-null value. If the expression
-   evaluates to a null value, including instances of undefined values
-   or missing fields, returns the value of the replacement expression.
-
-   The :expression:`$ifNull` expression has the following syntax:
+.. versionchanged:: 5.0
+
+The :expression:`$ifNull` expression evaluates input expressions for
+null values and returns:
+   
+- The first non-null input :ref:`expression <aggregation-expressions>`
+  value found.
+   
+- A replacement :ref:`expression <aggregation-expressions>` value if all
+  input expressions evaluate to null.

+:expression:`$ifNull` treats undefined values and missing fields as
