Hi, i am using forest admin for my nodejs + mongodb project. I added some property for existing tables but i cant see them in forest admin. I tried to run `forest schema:update` command but it generates new file and most of the my models are not working. Im getting this error on my models > # The request to your server either failed or returned invalid data. > > Please check your console logs to get more information. Can’t i do this without forest schema:update ? or do you know the solution of it ? My package versions “forest-express-mongoose”: “7.9.4” “@forestadmin/agent”: “false1.0.0-beta.63”, “@forestadmin/datasource-mongoose”: “false1.0.0-beta.25”, ---

Hello, Your agent is using the beta version, you **MUST** use the production ready [@forestadmin/agent version](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@forestadmin/agent) and [@forestadmin/datasource-mongoose](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@forestadmin/datasource-mongoose). You can remove the `forest-express-mongoose` of your dependencies. It is an old library and it is not necessary IF you are using the `@forestadmin/agent`. **Please 🙏, can you confirm that you `@forestadmin/agent` to run your project ? Also, what is your project name ? It will help me for debug yourself.** The documentation of the `agent-nodejs` is [here](https://docs.forestadmin.com/developer-guide-agents-nodejs/). Sorry for our ambiguous documentation, but the `schema:update` is not compatible with the `@forestadmin/agent` (`agent-nodejs`). I hope it will help you 🙏 ---

Did you update your mongoose models after added your attributes in your database ? For example, if you add the field `name` in the `user document` you must add the `name` in your `user` model inside your project. ---

Currently, the agent that you use does not create automatically the mongoose models. You must write manually the new fields! The `forest schema:update` will create the new mongoose file if it detects a new model in your database.
