Not authorized on admin to execute insert

Working with Data Node.js Frameworks
,

I used mongoose and Graphql to send my queries to the database but for some reason it doesn’t let me create documents. I have tried creating a new user with full admin privileges it hasn’t worked I tried changing the default user password but it didn’t work.

I rechecked my mongoose model no errors so what might be the problem.

FYI the problem arose with the return (author.save()) and the database connects normally

Author Model


const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const Schema = mongoose.Schema;

const authorSchema = new Schema({
    name: String,
    age: Number
});

module.exports = mongoose.model('Author', authorSchema);

const graphql = require('graphql');
const Book = require('../models/book');
const Author = require('../models/Author');
