Research direction

Reproduce the valid-user note-creation POST in Postman, then inspect models/note.js and the shown AutoIncrement plugin configuration. Confirm the cause of the unending request and verify that the request completes and creates a note with the plugin behavior working as intended.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

End of the controller lesson 4, I noticed that a POST to create a new note to a valid user:
It is leading to an unending request into postman.
I commented the autoincrement plugin, the issue is not there any more :
// noteSchema.plugin(AutoIncrement, {
// inc_field: 'ticket',
// id: 'ticketNums',
// start_seq: 500
// })
is this plugin still supported ?
