Deleting record from MongoDB using Angular

I'm trying to delete a record from MongoDB by using Angular on the FrontEnd, but somehow I can't get it to work.

This is my Delete request in Express:

router.get('/ideas/:id', function(req, res){
  ideas_data.remove({_id: req.params.id}, function(err){
    if(err) res.json(err);
    else res.redirect('/');
  });
});

And this is the http function in Angular:

$scope.deleteRec = function(id){
    $http.delete('/ideas/:id', {_id : id})
      .then(function successCallback(response) { 
        console.log(response);
    });
  };

And this is the function call on click in HTML

<a href="/{{title}}/{{x._id}}" ng-click="deleteRec(x._id)">
  <div class="icon cross">
     <img src="/images/icons/cross.svg"/>
  </div>
</a>

You are calling delete method from angular and server you have written get.

router.delete('/ideas/:id', function (req, res) {
    ideas_data.remove({
        _id: req.params.id
    }, function (err) {
        if (err) res.json(err);
        else res.redirect('/');
    });
});
