In sails mongo, datatype mismatch issue

Question

Here is the request I am sending to create the record in MongoDB. StatusId datatype is an integer, but After create query DB has a string value of statusId. Don't know where I am going wrong. This is giving issue while retrieving the data from the static table. Please help me ??

  var requestData = {
         "requestId": data.requestId,
         "vendorId": data.vendorId,
         "date_assigned_start": new Date(),
         "date_assigned_end": null,
         "statusId": 1  //integer
     }
    ManageJobs.create(requestData ,(err,response) =>{
      if(err){
        cb(null,"DB error")
      }else{
        cb("Success")
   })

response:

"success": {
        "requestId": "5f8d6ea61c059118086ee6c0",
        "vendorId": "5ee63874c603e29e3ec470d0",
        "date_assigned_start": "2020-10-29T17:18:18.581Z",
        "date_assigned_end": null,
        "statusId": "1", //string
        "createdAt": "2020-10-29T17:18:18.585Z",
        "updatedAt": "2020-10-29T17:18:18.585Z",
        "id": "5f9af95a03de140d8cfd11f6"
    }
