No name field in Even.user inside postUserRegistration Action

Help

I am trying to create a new record on my database when a user successfully signs up on Auth0 using a email, password and a name field. I have enabled “Customize Login Page” inside Branding > Universal Login > Advanced > Login and added the following code to the LOCK template to get a name field when the user signs up.

additionalSignUpFields: [{
        name: "name",
        storage: "root",
        placeholder: "Enter your full name"
      }]

However, when I create a postUserRegistration Action, my api (linked to the Action postUserRegistration) does not get the name field.
I have tried disabling the “Customize Login Page” option and used just the default ULP experience still no difference. I should note that I am getting all the expected fields if I choose to use the PostLogin Action but that is not useful as per my requirement. Here is my attached postUserRegistration action.

const axios = require("axios");

exports.onExecutePostUserRegistration = async (event, api) => {
  
  await axios.post("https://myapp.example.com", {email: event.user.email, name: event.user.name});
  
};

Hi @sumit.kumar,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

Are you seeing a name field in the user profile after they log in?

Also, have you checked in the event.user.user_metadata object?

Are you seeing a name field in the user profile after they log in?

Yes, As i mentioned the name field is visible in the PostLogin action (but not in the PostUserRegistration) and also in the raw_json inside Dashboard > UserManagement > Users.

Also, have you checked in the event.user.user_metadata object?

Yes, the user_metadata object is available in the PostUserRegistration action but it is empty. I have attached a sample of the evemt.user object below

"user":{"email":"username@email.com","tenant":"tenant_name","user_id":"auth0|id","app_metadata":{},"user_metadata":{},"email_verified":false,"phone_verified":false},"configuration":{}
