How to assign auto incremented unique number for PFObject?

Hi guys,

I am developing a simple b2b app, where customers could apply their suppliers for a certain machinery part (apply form). They fill some textfields and when they press on send button i want to save this information at parse.

I want that each apply has a unique ID/Number. I've read "incrementKey and byAmount", but I couldn't solve that each apply automatically got a +1 incremented unique ID/Number for the form.

This is what I had; [onderdeelAanvraag incrementKey:@"AanvraagNummer" byAmount:[NSNumber numberWithInt:1]];
