Use  ne instead of  not  http   docs mongodb org manual reference operator ne  op  S ne  db collections find   name     ne

From the Mongo docs      The  not operator only affects other operators and cannot check   fields and documents independently  So  use the  not operator for   logical disjunctions and the  ne operator to test the contents of   fields directly    Since you are testing the field directly  ne is the right operator to use here   Edit   A situation where you would like to use  not is   db inventory find    price     not     gt  1 99           That would select all documents where    The price field value is less than or equal to 1 99 or the price Field does not exist

Use  ne --   not should be followed by the standard operator   An examples for  ne  which stands for not equal   use test switched to db test db test insert  author    me   post       db test insert  author    you   post   how to query    db test find   post     ne             id    ObjectId  4f68b1a7768972d396fe2268     author     you    post     how to query      And now  not  which takes in predicate   ne  and negates it   not    db test find   post     not    ne              id    ObjectId  4f68b19c768972d396fe2267     author     me    post

If there is a null in an array and you want to avoid it   db test find   contain      ne         pretty
