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. Console logging the inSession directly, outputs "null"
