The Pre-user Registration trigger runs before a user is added to a Database or Connection.
Diagram showing the Actions Pre User Registration Flow.
Actions in this flow are blocking (synchronous), which means they execute as part of a trigger’s process and will prevent the rest of the Auth0 pipeline from running until the Action is complete.

Triggers

​
Pre-user Registration

The pre-user-registration  triggers runs when a user attempts to register through a Database or Passwordless connection. This trigger can be used to add metadata to the user profile before it is created or to deny a registration with custom logic.
Vous ne pouvez pas présentement utiliser les Actons pre-user-registration pour ajouter des métadonnées aux utilisateurs sans mot de passe.

  • API object: Provides methods for changing the behavior of the flow.

Common use cases

​
Deny registration by location

A pre-user registration Action can be used to prevent a user from signing up. 
/**
 * @param {Event} event - Details about registration event.
 * @param {PreUserRegistrationAPI} api
 */
exports.onExecutePreUserRegistration = async (event, api) => {
  if (event.request.geoip.continentCode === "NA") {

    // localize the error message 
    const LOCALIZED_MESSAGES = {
      en: 'You are not allowed to register.',
      es: 'No tienes permitido registrarte.'
    };

    const userMessage = LOCALIZED_MESSAGES[event.request.language] || LOCALIZED_MESSAGES['en'];
    api.access.deny('no_signups_from_north_america', userMessage);
  }
};

​
Set metadata in the user profile

A pre-user registration Action can be used to add metadata to the user profile before it is created.
Vous ne pouvez pas présentement utiliser les Actons pre-user-registration pour ajouter des métadonnées aux utilisateurs sans mot de passe.
/**
 * @param {Event} event - Details about registration event.
 * @param {PreUserRegistrationAPI} api
 */
exports.onExecutePreUserRegistration = async (event, api) => {
  api.user.setUserMetadata("screen_name", "username");  
};

​
Store a user ID from another system in the user profile

A pre-user registration Action can be used to store a user ID from another system in the user profile. 
const axios = require('axios');

const REQUEST_TIMEOUT = 2000; // Example timeout

/**
* Handler that will be called during the execution of a PreUserRegistration flow.
*
* @param {Event} event - Details about the context and user that is attempting to register.
* @param {PreUserRegistrationAPI} api - Interface whose methods can be used to change the behavior of the signup.
*/
exports.onExecutePreUserRegistration = async (event, api) => {
  try {
    // Set a secret USER_SERVICE_URL = 'https://yourservice.com'
    const remoteUser = await axios.get(event.secrets.USER_SERVICE_URL, {
      timeout: REQUEST_TIMEOUT,
      params: {
        email: event.user.email 
      }
    });

    if (remoteUser) {
      api.user.setAppMetadata('my-api-user-id', remoteUser.id); 
    }
  } catch (err) {
    api.validation.error('custom_error', 'Custom Error');
  }
};
Pour utiliser une bibliothèque npm comme axios, vous devez ajouter la bibliothèque à l’Action en tant que dépendance. Pour en savoir plus, lisez la section « Ajouter une dépendance » dans Rédigez votre première action.

Deny access to specific JA3/JA4 fingerprints

The event.security_context object contains the JA3/JA4 fingerprint values for the current transaction. 
exports.onExecutePreUserRegistration = async (event, api) => {
  const clientJa4 = event?.security_context?.ja4;
  console.log('[ACTION]', {clientJa4});
  const badFingerprints = ['t13d1517h2_8daaf6152771_b6f405a00624','t13d1516h2_8daaf6152771_d8a2da3f94cd'];
  if (clientJa4 && badFingerprints.includes(clientJa4)){
    api.access.deny('suspicious_tls_fingerprint', 'Your TLS fingerprint has been flagged as suspicious');
  }
};
