    You can’t query by populate.

    But you can implement that instead:

    1. First find Area by nombre_area
    2. And then find Users with areaI equal to that area id

    It’s simple and should be performant, as I believe you don’t have thousands of areas.

    you have two solutions

    1- separate the query and write a method & named it aeraExist(name) and filter it by name

    2- in the populate add match & if that filter doesn’t match it will return null

        .populate({
      path: "areaI",
      match: {name: "Us"},
    })
