Hello, Thanks for responding. ^^

i didn't want to make any changes to the id field.

i have a user struct like this.

    
type User struct {
    ID         primitive.ObjectID `bson:"_id,omitempty" json:"id"`
    FirstName  string             `bson:"firstname" json:"firstname"`
    LastName   string             `bson:"lastname" json:"lastname"`
    Email      string             `bson:"email" index:"email" json:"email"`
 }


  

i wanted the Email field to be unique, just like the ID. so when a new user tries to create an account with the same email, it'll return an error.

it isn't a problem anymore because i figured out a way... i created a custom struct tag that validates whether a user with the same email exist in the database.
