Node MongoDB execution order

I'm using collection.insert then in the callback collection.findAndModify

About 10% of the time collection.findAndModify fails to find the document I just inserted, even though it's being executed after the insert callback. Why is this possible? How do I deal with that?

enter image description here

I insert it, then try to modify it, but it's not there, then try to modify it again and it's there.

You should give the second command in the callback as the insert is asynchronous. If you are using the mongodb native driver for node,

collection.insert(document, function(err, records){
     //call collection.findAndModify here

});
