Hey there @mmdanish !

You should be able to call your own API from an action to get/set the metadata - The following may help:

Hey @mmdanish I apologize for the delayed response here.

I’m not sure I understand your question - There are a couple examples of what it might look to call an external API from an Action in the thread I shared. It’s more or less the same idea as calling an API from within a rule. The basics are:

  • Make sure your API is registered in Auth0.
  • Create a m2m app in Auth0 authorized to call your API.
  • Use these credentials to get an access token in the Action.
  • Use a library such as axios to interact with your API.
  • Assign user_metadata using the Actions API object - api.user.setUserMetadata(name, value)

Hope this helps!
