Hey again @kkrp1 !

I would use a [post-login Action](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/actions/flows-and-triggers/login-flow) to add custom meta\_data claims to tokens instead - I just verified the following works:

```auto
exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => {
  const namespace = 'https://my-app.example.com';
  if (event.authorization) {
    api.idToken.setCustomClaim(`${namespace}/user_metadata`, event.user.user_metadata);
    api.idToken.setCustomClaim(`${namespace}/app_metadata`, event.client.metadata);
  }
};

```

Some more on custom claims in general:

Hope this helps!
