Whenever I try to run findByIdAndUpdate, it doesn't seem to work as expected and ends up in the catch block. I am sending responses to Postman using res.json(req.user.id) and res.json(profileFields). The response I receive when I use
profileFields
{
"user": "5b3134a0e2543b06d130a5d7",
"handle": "wadeaston1",
"status": "Developer",
"skills": [
"HTML",
" CSS",
" Javascipt"
],
"social": {}
}
I'm confused because all my fields are passing values as expected into user and $set. I can't figure out why it's going to the catch block.
Profile.findByIdAndUpdate(
{ user: req.user.id },
{ $set: profileFields },
{ new: true }
)
.then(profile => res.json(profile))
.catch(err => {
res.json("Timeout");
console.log("HI");
});
This is my Profile Schema:
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const Schema = mongoose.Schema;
//Create Scheme
const ProfileSchema = new Schema({
user: {
//this will associate user by their ID
type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
ref: "users"
