I am trying to add a Post User Registration action that fires after a user registers to the application via a Social Provider. Google and Facebook are my social providers.

Are Post User Registration Actions / Hooks / Rules supposed to work with Social Provider signups? Because I am not able to get an Action, Hook or Rule to fire on Post User Registration via a Social Provider.

I do see the hook fire when I sign up via standard username / password method. But it does not fire when registering via Social Provider.

Is this an Auth0 bug, or is this intended behavior?

Hey @dave6,

It’s an Intended behavior,  
The Post-User Registration extensibility point is available for database connections.  
We have listed this in the following doc:

> **[Post-User Registration](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/hooks/extensibility-points/post-user-registration)**
>
> Learn how hooks can be used with the Post-User Registration extensibility point, which is available for database connections and passwordless connections.

Regards,  
Sid
