How to fix "window is not defined error" in js

Question

This is my current code:

const mongoose = require("mongoose")
const params = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search)
module.exports = (req, res) => {
    
    res.send({
        creatorid: "",
        whitelisted: false
    })
}

At the moment, it is giving me the error: window is not defined. I have no idea why. Can someone help please?

It might depend on your framework, but most probably they're stored in the `req` parameter. That is, if the request is made to the right endpoint. — Emiel Zuurbier, Feb 19 '21 at 22:13

As it was mentioned above. There is no window object in Node enviroment.

If you are using Express

var express = require('express');
var app = express();

app.get('/', function(req, res){
    res.send('id: ' + req.query.id);
});

app.listen(3000);
