03:11 PMI don't know why I am getting strange errors when I am trying to drop a field from my collection.
{
"message": "Field `my_another_field` has been declared in the schema, but is not found in the documents already present in the collection. If you still want to add this field, set it as `optional: true`."
}
This is really strange. I am struggling since 1 hour on it. I just have to drop a field but getting this error continuously.
