I'd think the Apple dongle thunderbolt 3 to thunderbolt along with a thunderbolt cable is all you need

Thank you for your response. I think the mid 2012 Macbook Pro has a "Thunderbolt" rather than a "Thunderbolt 2" port. Do you know if that compatible with this "Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2" adapter?
