GraphQL returning data using mongodb native driver

I am trying return some data in graphiql using the mongodb native driver not mongoose. For some reason I don't get the data returned on graphiql. but when I console.log it I am able to see it.

Here is my Query

 type Highlight {
        id: ID!
        content: String!
        title: String
        author: String
    }    
    type Query {
        highlights: [Highlight]!
        highlight(id: ID!): Highlight
    }

Here is my resolver -

Query: {
    highlights: getHighlights,
}

Here is the getHighlights function -

async function getHighlights() {
  try {
    await client.connect();
    console.log("Connected correctly to server");
    const db = client.db(dbName);

    db.collection("highlights").find({})(function (err, result) {
      if (err) throw err;     
      return result;
    });

  } catch (err) {
    console.log(err.stack);
  }
}

When I return this is what I see on graphiql enter image description here

I had the same error. My issue was I'd misspelled one of the attribute names in the database. Quick one to check.

you have to return your data that you got from database, you can see the error from grahql in message property:

async function getHighlights() {
  try {
    await client.connect();
    console.log("Connected correctly to server");
    const db = client.db(dbName);

    const data = db.collection("highlights").find({})(function (err, result) {
      if (err) throw err;     
      return result;
    });

    return data

  } catch (err) {
    console.log(err.stack);
  }
}
