It'll work normally as it does for non array key:

SessionCollection.findOne({users: mongoose.Types.ObjectId("626ead978edc5f2a3f7ca924")})

You might need to cast to objectId to get the desired result. Reference

I tried it but it didnt return me anything, neither after the curl or in the node-console, tried [this](https://pastebin.com/rpKSX188). Console logging the `inSession` directly, outputs `"null"` – DNAScanner May 04 '22 at 14:47
Sorry, didnt look in here for a few days, thank you, that works actually – DNAScanner May 15 '22 at 07:18
