Hi, I have a simple Auth0 rule where I’d like to set the user.name property to the provided family_name and given_name. By default, the name property is just the user’s provided email; however, I have the family_name and given_name in the sign up form so I’d like to just concat the two together as the name property.
The rule I have looks something like the below code and does in fact update the Auth0 user properly; however, I have to sign out and sign back in before my apps get the correctly updated name value. I assume the issue is that the generated JWT tokens aren’t getting the value when the name is updated within the rule itself although I’m not sure what I should be doing instead to make sure it’s updated in time for my apps to get the new value.
My Auth0 rule looks like the following:
function addAttributes(user, context, callback) {
const ManagementClient = require('auth0@2.23.0').ManagementClient;
const management = new ManagementClient({
token: auth0.accessToken,
domain: auth0.domain
});
if((user.name === undefined || user.name === user.email) && user.given_name !== undefined) {
var name = user.given_name;
if(user.family_name !== undefined) {
name += " " + user.family_name;
}
user.name = name;
management.updateUser({ id: user.user_id }, { name: name }, function(err,user) {
if (err) {
// Handle error
console.error(err);
}
callback(null, user, context);
});
} else {
callback(null, user, context);
}
}
According to the order of events, I should be able to make this kind of modification to the user record in an Auth0 Rule. Upon inspection of the idToken and accessToken within the rule I didn’t see any field related to the user.name that I needed to update beyond what I’ve already done in the above rule (e.g. I assumed that all I had to do was set user.name = name). Any suggestions would be appreciated!
