Description
Description:
I am using rocket chat Docker version 4.6.1 when i create a new channel api/v1/channels.create
as mentioned here https://developer.rocket.chat/reference/api/rest-api/endpoints/team-collaboration-endpoints/channels-endpoints/create
I am using admin user to create a channel

I gets the following error.
{
"success": false,
"error": "Cannot destructure property '_USERNAMES' of '_Promise$await' as it is undefined."
}

In earlier version 4.5.0 it was working fine.
Could you please advice on this
Many Thanks

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure against Rocket.Chat Docker 4.6.1 through the documented api/v1/channels.create endpoint, comparing it with 4.5.0. Trace the source of the reported undefined _USERNAMES value and verify that creating a channel as an administrator no longer returns HTTP 400.
