collection.find().property returning undefined

I have the following code:

    var permalinkVar = this.params.permalink;
    var imageVar = sites.find({'name':permalinkVar}).createdBy;
    console.log(imageVar);

inside a route function, I'm trying to return the createdBy property, but im not sure why but it's returning undefined. Can anyone help?

Thas because you are using .find() instead of findOne

var imageVar = sites.findOne({'name':permalinkVar});
console.log(imageVar.createdBy);

.find() returns the collection instance, where .createdBy and name doesn't exists.
