placeholder with your form ID.
- Note: Ensure that you replace the
/*** @param {Event} event - Details about the user and the context in which they are logging in.* @param {PostLoginAPI} api - Interface whose methods can be used to change the behavior of the login.*/exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => {const FORM_ID = 'AUTH0_FORM_ID';if (!event.user.user_metadata.full_name) {api.prompt.render(FORM_ID);}}/*** @param {Event} event - Details about the user and the context in which they are logging in.* @param {PostLoginAPI} api - Interface whose methods can be used to change the behavior of the login.*/exports.onContinuePostLogin = async (event, api) => {}
- Click the "Deploy" button.
- Next, click on the "Add to flow" link in the toast message that comes up, or click on the "Back to flow" link to return to the "Login" flow board.

Now, when any user attempts to log in, and their event.user.user_metadata
object does not have a full_name
property defined, this Action will render your "KYC onboarding" form and require the user to provide additional details before they can complete their login flow. You can also check for the existence of the other properties in the event.user.user_metadata
object if you want your check to be more complete.
