Mongoose Schema.update doesn't update boolean - node.js

Question

I have tried updating other fields and it works just fine.
The command I am using in my API:
User.update({ email: targetUser.email }, { $set: { isAdmin: true }, $push: { 'log.updated': new Date() } }, function (err, user) {
if (err) {
responseObject.err = err;
responseObject.data = null;
responseObject.code = 422;
return res.json(responseObject);
}
return res.json(responseObject);
});
To clarify, when I try to run this, the API returns a code 200, meaning everything worked fine, but when I check the database the isAdmin value wasn't changed.
Any suggestions would be helpful, running out of ideas here!

Turns out I just forgot to add the isAdmin field to my User Schema! Also, my call to the update was wrong, I changed it to this:
User.update({ email: targetUser.email }, { $set: { isAdmin: true }}, { $push: { 'log.updated': new Date() } }, function (err, user) {
if (err) {
responseObject.err = err;
responseObject.data = null;
responseObject.code = 422;
return res.json(responseObject);
}
return res.json(responseObject);
});
Thanks to everyone that put an effort to help me! :)

I encountered a similar problem. The solution was to add the callback.
This doesn't work:
Ride.updateOne({driver:req.body.id},{$set:{isBusy:true}});
This works:
Ride.updateOne({driver:req.body.id},{$set:{isBusy:true}},(e,s)=>{});

Try updating two fields with $set
User.update({ email: targetUser.email }, { $set: { isAdmin: true, 'log.updated': new Date() } }, function (err, user) {
if (err) {
responseObject.err = err;
responseObject.data = null;
responseObject.code = 422;
return res.json(responseObject);
}
return res.json(responseObject);
});
Hope it's works.

There is easier way to handle the issue. As per the documentation, the second parameter is the object where you can update the statement.
A.findByIdAndUpdate(id, update, options, callback)
So you just need to take everything inside the update object.
User.update({ email: targetUser.email, $set: {isAdmin: true}} // ... etc
