why is the mongodb collection find not working?

I am trying to search a mongodb using pymongo as collection.find({},{"project": "IO80211"}) but the search doesnt seem to work it seems to list all the rows in that collection,any guidance on why the search is not working?

try:
    print("Trying to create tags...")
    dbuser = os.environ.get('muser', 'techauto1')
    dbpass = os.environ.get('mpwd', 'techpass')
    uri = 'mongodb://{dbuser}:{dbpass}@techtechbot.scv.company.com:27017/techautomation'.format(**locals())
    client = MongoClient(uri)
    db = client.techautomation
    collection = db['static_radars']
    print ("going to for find..")
    #cursor = collection.find({"project:%s"%project})
    print(collection)
    cursor = collection.find({},{"project": "IO80211"})
    print ("going to forloop")
    for document in cursor:
        print('%s'%document)
except (pymongo.errors.AutoReconnect, e):
    print('Warning %s'%e)

The first parameter is the query,

the second one is the projection,

as it says in the docs

So you can remove the first empty parameter and pass the query instead

cursor = collection.find({"project": "IO80211"})
