In SPI UserStorageProvider the addUser function only has the username parameter, how do I get the first name, last name and email?

Can you share your code, and what you’re trying to accomplish? There is no `addUser` method in `UserStorageProvider`. Do you mean the one in `UserProvider`/`UserRegistrationProvider`?

If you are trying to create a new user, you can call the `addUser(RealmModel realm, String username)` method, and that will return an UserModel. Then you can call the `setXxx()` methods on that, and those values will be automatically persisted.

        var tenant = this.db.session().createNamedQuery("Tenant.findByAliveName", Tenant.class).setParameter(1, rm.getName()).uniqueResult();
        if (tenant == null) {
            return null;
        }

        var account = new Account();

        account.setAlive(Boolean.TRUE);
        account.setStatId(Status.ENABLED);
        account.setCreationTime(Calendar.getInstance());
        account.setUsername(username);
        account.setTenaId(tenant.getTenaId());

        this.db.begin();

        var id = this.db.save(account);

        this.db.commit();

        return this.getUserById(StorageId.keycloakId(this.model, id.toString()), rm);
    }

This returns the `UserModel`. You can get the first name, last name and email from there.

This method is also overwritten and query on the record entered previously

@Override  
public UserModel getUserById(String id, RealmModel rm) {

```
        Logger.getLogger(CustomUserStorageProvider.class).info("getUserById: realm={" + rm.getName() + "} id={" + id + "}");

        var account = this.db.session().byId(Account.class).load(Integer.parseInt(externalId(id)));
        if (account == null) {
            return null;
        }

        return new UsuarioAdapter(account, this.db.session().createNamedQuery("Allow.findByAccoId", Allow.class).setParameter(1, account.getAccoId()).list(), this.session, rm, this.model);
    }
```

@xgp will this return the firstname, lastname and email info sent by provider in case i am using external social IDP like google .  
I think in above case it will only return the info from the custom userStorageProvider and not what we will get from IDP .
