Vue 3 / Express params returning their name - node.js

Question

First off let me say sorry if the title of the question confused anyone reading my question. I didn't know how to best word my question. The issue I'm having is when I try to send a get request from my axios instance to my express instance. When I send data from axios, I have my object showing all the data it needs but when I try to utilize that data in express using req.params.email the value its holding is :email heres my code:
Client/Axios
checkEmail (data) {
return http.get('/users/:email', data)
},
Value of 'data' Object
{email: 'ThisIs#MyEmail.Org'}
Server/Express
router.get('/users/:email', function (req, res) {
console.log(req.params.email)
const data = User.find({ email: req.params.email })
return res.sendStatus(200).json(data)
})
Server Console Log
{ email: ':email' }
As a side note I have tried to just use req.params but it returns the same thing. If anyone can point out what I'm doing wrong I would greatly appreciate it!

This code will works.
You needs to switch from hard code data
to your const data = User.find({ email: req.params.email })
From
const data = {
email: 'test#gmail.com',
first_name: 'Tom',
last_name: 'Cruise'
}
To
const data = User.find({ email: req.params.email })
server.js
const express = require("express")
const axios = require('axios')
const cors = require("cors")
const app = express()
app.use(cors())
app.get("/users/:email", async (req, res) => {
console.log("params", req.params);
// const data = User.find({ email: req.params.email })
const data = {
email: 'test#gmail.com',
first_name: 'Tom',
last_name: 'Cruise'
}
res.status(200).json(data);
});
app.listen(3000, () => { console.log("Listening on :3000") })
client.js
const axios = require('axios')
const checkEmail = async (data) => {
try {
const response = await axios.get(`http://localhost:3000/users/${data}`);
return Promise.resolve(response.data)
} catch (error) {
return Promise.reject(error)
}
};
checkEmail('ThisIs#MyEmail.Org')
.then(result => {
console.log('user is : ' + JSON.stringify(result))
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error.message)
});
Install dependencies
npm install express axios cors
Run first server
node server.js
Run second client
node client.js
Result at server
Result at client
