无法使用 Mongoose 在 MongoDB 中保存和显示数据

Question

app.post('/contact', (req, res)=> {
    var myData = new Contact(req.body);
    myData.save().then(()=>{
        res.send("Item has been saved");
    }).catch(()=>{
             res.send('Item was not saved due to some error');
    });
});

Later when I'm trying to put data and trying to see data from mongo shell using db.contacts.find(), the data is not there in the database. There is just an object ID and nothing else. This is what I'm seeing in the Mongo Shell--

just try in app.js

const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser.json())
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: false}))

and check the header of request because should have

  headers: {
      'Accept': 'application/json',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    }
