Custom User Data vs User Document

MongoDB Atlas App Services & Realm
1

Hey :wave:

I’ve recently been looking through the way user authentication/creation is handled within the RChat app and wondered if there was any particular reason custom user data is disabled in the realm config? RChat/config.json at 8be092c1fe776c92e1dff8dc66ceb40788f0bc57 · realm/RChat · GitHub

Are there any advantages to simply using the User collection with a partition vs using the custom user data attribute to gain access to these additional fields?

Possibly one for @Andrew_Morgan

Thanks

Hi @Mishkat_Ahmed - welcome to the community forum.

Custom user data is read-only in the mobile app and I wanted to be able to update it.
