Trying to update user app_metadata from node js

[erfan.saraj]

Hi,

I am trying to update app_metadata called ‘credit_left’ by a post request to this API:

app.post(‘/app-metadata-credit-left’, async (req, res) => {

var metadata = {
    credit_left: 10
};

management.updateAppMetadata(req.body.sub, metadata, (err, user) => {
    if (err) {
        console.log(err);
    } else {
        console.log(`Successfully updated app metadata for user with ID ${req.body.sub}`);
    }
});
res.json({ app_metadata: metadata })

});

I keep getting a “Not Found: Not Found” error, please help.

Thanks

Hi @erfan.saraj ,

I keep getting a “Not Found: Not Found” error, please help.

I understand you want to update the user app_metadata.credit_left attribute via the post request. The endpoint for updating the app_metadata requires the user_id. If the info is missing in the function, it will return the not found error.

Here is what the sample scripts look like:

var params = { id: USER_ID };
var metadata = {
  foo: 'bar'
};

management.updateAppMetadata(params, metadata, function (err, user) {
  if (err) {
    // Handle error.
  }

  // Updated user.
  console.log(user);
});

You may find the details in this doc.

Please let me know if any further queries about this topic. Thanks!
