Hi Nathalie, congrats deploying your first DB! Your code looks good on github, however I couldn't test the endpoint returning any data correctly, I left a comment as I suspect the issue is the env variable that needs to be passed to Render RESET_DATABASE=true in order to seed the db. Please doublecheck, thank you :)
| const NetflixModel = mongoose.model("Netflix", netflixSchema) | ||
|
|
||
| // Set Seed | ||
| if (process.env.RESET_DATABASE) { |

did you add the env to the hosting service settings? (Render) The DB is empty at the moment

Hi Antonella,
I checked again and fixed the bug. I saw, that I wrote Netflix instead of NetflixModel.
It should work now. Thank you :)

Nice! Please bear in mind that your data is now having 2 ids, MongoDB assigns automatically an _id, so you can remove the show_id from your schema and update the code to find the _id:
const movie = await NetflixModel.findOne({
_id: Number(id),
type: "Movie",
})
