  • 0

I am using Devise and I have it so a User clicks "log in with facebook". Once they confirm this, it then takes them to the registration url "http://0.0.0.0:3000/users/sign_up".

In here I then populate the name and email fields with the ones I got from Facebook. They now just have to pick a password to sign up. I also want to save the user’s Facebook UID and their Facebook url.

How do I pass this into my User model once the user clicks on the sign up button? (I updated my model to include these extra fields).

Edit: I currently also store their Facebook hash data in a session that I got from Ominauth so that I can retrieve it later.

    Using the auth hash provided by Omniauth you should be able to retrieve the user information.

    For example the hash has a structure that looks like this.
    You can pull the user information like this:

    facebook_uid = user_auth.uid
facebook_url = user.user_info.urls
