    finally, I get it. it's about id in mongoose must transform it to string and then length must be equal to 12 bytes.

    app.get('/users/:id', (req,res) => {
  const _id = req.params.id
  if(_id.toString().length!= 12) {
    User.findById(_id).then((user) => 
      if(!user) {
         return res.status(404).send('unable to find user')
      }
      return res.status(200).send(user)
    }).catch((e) => {
      return res.status(500).send(e)
    })
  } else {
    res.status(400).send('bad objectID')
  }
})
