Deployment issue - error next@14.0.4: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module.

Hello there!
I got issues trying to deploy the app with PayLoad.
I hace the latest version of node installed but when I deploy the app I get this:

[2023-12-27T12:50:50]
╭──────────── app build ───────────╼
[2023-12-27T12:50:50]

and then

[2023-12-27T12:52:44]
│ error next@14.0.4: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=18.17.0". Got "16.20.2"
[2023-12-27T12:52:44]
│ error Found incompatible module.

If I understood correctly, the deplyment uses an older version of Node that is not compatible with next.
Any idea how to solve the issue?
Thanks in advance!

try to do node -v
it will tell you that currently you're having node version of 16.20.2 but that supposed to be greater than or equals to 18.17.0
You can do so using nvm

Thanks for the reply! I checked the version with node -v and it says 21.5.0
