What does the updateOne() function do?

Entry MongoDB
Quick Answer updateOne() updates the first document matching a filter. Takes two args: filter (which docs to match) and update (what to change). Use $set to change specific fields without replacing the whole document. Returns an object with matchedCount and modifiedCount. If you want to update all matching documents, use updateMany() instead.

Answer

updateOne() updates the first matching document using operators like $set, $inc, or $push.
