help
1

I have been struggling to insert objects into an array on the Meteor user document and keep getting errors with my query. I am trying to achieve similar structure as how emails are stored using the accounts package.

ie
image

below is my schema

tenants: {
type: Array, //Object
optional: true,
blackbox: true
},
“tenants.$.id”: { // the organisation is
type: String,
},
“tenants.$.name”: { // the organisation is
type: String,
},

and my update query as below

> _id: Meteor.userId(),
>                     modifier: {
>                       $set:{currentType: "special", currentTenant: "tenantId"}, 
>                       $push: { 
>                         'tenants': {                     
>                             'tenants.id':"tenantId",
>                             'tenants.name': "test tenantname"
>                         }
>                        }
>                       }

have tried so many different version and keep getting so many errors. This current version give no errors but doesn’t insert either.
the push part of the query just fails or does nothing.

Im using collection2, simplscema etc

Please help @hwillson

changed schema to below but still no errors and no inserts either.

tenants: {  // all organaisations a user has access to
    type: Array, //Object,
    optional: true,
    blackbox: true
},

“tenants.$”: { // all organaisations a user has access to
type: Object
},
“tenants.$.id”: { // the organisation is
type: String,
},
“tenants.$.name”: { // the organisation is
type: String,
},

commenting out black box true results in the error below
tenants.0.tenants.id is not allowed by the schema

solved

 $push: {  
               'tenants': {                     
                     'id':tentntid,
                      'name': " tenant name"
                }
           }
