Error : Type '{ id?: string | undefined; title?: string | undefined; content?: string | undefined; }' is not assignable to type 'Post'. Types of property 'id' are incompatible.

paramMap.get() returns string|null. Since your variable is strictly of type string, TS is showing the error.
You could either change the type of postId to string|null.
Or do something like this this.postId=paramMap.get('postId') || '';

I think paramMap returns a boolean..you need a string. "Returns boolean: True if the map contains the given parameter, false otherwise."
