Answer 1

If we assume that there is a relation comments of User -> Comment, you may also to try relation method POST /users/{user_id}/comments which will populate the foreignId (which can be added_by).

Another thing is added_at. As far as I understand, validation hook is triggered before create hook. It means that validation will fail, since this field is marked as required in a model. The question is whether this field should be marked as required, since it is set by the server, and not required to be set by the client of the API.
