How to update logged users info with external collections info

Hi I have an external collection for users, it is configured correctly because it gives me the proper values in the response, email, id, full name etc, but I want to copy this information to the logged in users database to use within the app, but I use the action tu update the logged in user but its not updating it, can someone help ? thanks!

Welcome to the community @enriquegr86! :partying_face:

Why you using a external collection? You want to get the users that was already on another dB and add them to users collection so that they can login? Could you explain a bit more with some screenshots or from a video?

hi, the user registers in adalo app, but It sends the user information to an external collection because I have a backend that process information from that user. so from the sign in screen it sends the user to Home Screen, and I need the users id, full name and email around the app to filter information, im adding a video.

Could you share the video again? Seems like a wrong url.

sorry here it is again

Thanks for video!

Why you not storing user data on the users collection that Adalo gives automatically? Since you’re using logged in user properties with conditions, you have to use that collection instead of using another collection.

What happens when Sign up? You’re running a custom action in there too right? Users from that dB directly tries to sign in to Adalo?

hi, the app is very far down to make this change, is there a way to make it work as it is?
I don’t know why I can’t access that information since it is being received when the user logs in

If you want to receive that custom action data, you can add a action right after the custom action and add that action’s values from magic texts. : Custom Actions | Adalo Resources
