unkempt crane
I am new to Angular and I made a backend using Express and Mongoose in which I wrote a get method to lookup two categories and combine them. I need to show specific products and the bid information for each product. Although I believe the bids are attached correctly, I don't have access to them in my Angular functions.
I am used to Java and SQL so a bit confused. Can anyone offer some help? Would be immensely grateful.

Hi you would need to provide details as it's all about your code. Please mind using #off-topic will be more appropriate if that's about the express code.

Well I am trying to use *ngFor to access bids here:
But perhaps I am just way off base
The bid info is there but my noob mind cant access it

Can you illustrate the I don't have access to them in my Angular functions. part with your functions?

@unkempt crane, you can use the following snippet to have your code formatted and colored by Discord. Replace ts with the language you need (i.e. html, js, css, etc)
```ts
// your code goes here
```

Please provide the `Product` interface code (and copy code here directly, tha'ts...
Do you mean the model (which was an interface but I changed it to a class)?

Do you mean the model (which was an interface but I changed it to a class)?
yes (note interface are encouraged over class).
There is no bids here, so having an error is expected.
While it's present in your data, you are telling your code there is no bids in the model but you try to access it

That's unrelated to this code: that's about having a model matching your data.
And it does not currently.
unkempt crane
which then gives me something like this
So I should add bids to the product model?

You need to update your model to match your data model

you should have everything in your model matching your data indeed
