Answer 1

Found this really funny but it worked for me:

    db.my_collection.find({}).forEach((elm)=>{

    let value = new String(elm.USERid);//gets the string version of the ObjectId which in turn changes the datatype to a string.

    let result = value.split("(")[1].split(")")[0].replace(/^"(.*)"$/, '$1');//this removes the objectid completely and the quote 
    delete elm["USERid"]
    elm.USERid = result
    db.my_collection.save(elm)
    })
