Pre User Registration not firing?

I added this pre registration hook to validate which users can registers and which cannot. Its an API request call.

The code works locally, and in the pre user registration simulator. But it’s not fired when a user tries to log in.

I deleted the user several times and tried with that one, but nothing happened. I also looked at the logs, expecting to find an entry for the hook, but there was nothing there either (maybe this entry does never happen)

Any suggestion?

const https = require('https');

module.exports = function (user, context, cb) {
  var response = {};
  
  console.log('aa');

  response.user = user;
  const data = { email: user.email };
  
  try {
    const postData = JSON.stringify(data);
    var options = {
      hostname: 'some.api',
      port: 443,
      path: '/authentication/validate',
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
           'Content-Type': 'application/json',
           'Content-Length': postData.length
         }
    };
    
    var req = https.request(options, (res) => {
      console.log('statusCode:', res.statusCode);
      console.log('headers:', res.headers);
    
      res.on('data', (d) => {
        process.stdout.write(d);
      });

      if (res.statusCode === 200) {
        cb(null, 'OK');
      } else {
        return cb('Error');
      }
    });
    
    req.on('error', (e) => {
      console.error(e);
    });
    
    req.write(postData);
    req.end();
  } catch (error) {
    return cb('Invalid User');
  }
};

Hi @xavier.colomer.sopra,

Welcome to the Community!

These hooks only work with db users. Are you logging in with a social connection like google?
