Description

This issue was just noticed today (it may have been around for awhile) but when full permission users go and try to create a public channel, it gives us a bad request error.

bad request

The logs dont show an error. Here is what the logs say:

I have the same problem. It occurs after update from 4.3.2 to 4.6.1. It Affects creation of Channels, Teams and Discussions

This is what the logs say when i try it in the gui:
"POST /api/v1/groups.create HTTP/1.1" 400 136 "<url-of-server>" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/102.0.4984.0 Safari/537.36"

When i try it with curl the log at the rocket chat side says this:
"POST /api/v1/channels.create HTTP/1.1" 400 119 "-" "curl/7.74.0"

While curl says this:
{"success":false,"error":"Cannot destructure property '_USERNAMES' of '_Promise$await' as it is undefined."}

Version: 4.6.1
OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Apps Engine Version: 1.31.0
Node Version: v14.18.3
MongoDB: 5.0.6 / wiredTiger (oplog Enabled)
