.updateOne on MongoDB not working in Node.js

Question

I have the following code:

connection((db) => {
            db.collection(\'orders\')
                .updateOne(
                    { \"_id\": req.body         


        

Answer 1

Tough @Spraw's answer is right for some cases, but sometimes it doesn't work. I think the convenient answer is updateOne({_id: new ObjectID(req.body._id)}, {$set: {"name": req.body.name}}, callback).

the _id in mongodb is a BSON object and should be instantiated.
