Hi @saurabhsinghgangwar,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

[This doc](https://auth0.com/docs/actions/triggers/post-login/event-object) lists what is available in a postLogin action’s `event` object. I don’t see header info. If you would like, you can create a [Feature Request](https://community.auth0.com/c/feedback/95), please add information and examples to make things clear.
