    Hi, I would like to fill some user registration fields created in a form but using some data that comes from an API request. Is this possible?

    Thank you.

    Hello @shresthauzwal,

    Our goal is to create the WordPress users programmatically with an inbound request to the website. This is because the users are already created on an external app.

    For the user extra fields, I have created a form with your plugin and that is working perfect for external new users. They register and fill all those fields.

    The problem is for the first case user, the ones we create programmatically. I would love on user creation, to also add the information of the fields created on the form. I think those fields add as metadata to the WordPress user. So I need a way to set those fields programmatically.

    Thank you.

    hello @shresthauzwal,

    Solved the issue by looking to the DB and see the user meta fields that the plugin adds.. So I can now insert those fields without any issues.
