Hi,
I realize we can override the AccountAppService as I mentioned in the original post. This isn't so much a support request but rather a suggestion. The ABP team has developed quite an extensive Extra Properties feature set for extensibility. It's just falling a little short in this use case. It might be useful if in AddOrUpdateProperty developers could specify whether regular properties should be mapped. Maybe it could be an additional option. This would allow developers to add extra properties to RegisterDto that could be mapped to normal properties on IdentityUser and avoid having to completely override AccountAppService.
Hi,
After going through ABP's extensive Extra Properties feature, I still don't see how we can use it to map some obvious properties like Name and Surname during registration without modifying module code. In provided AccountAppService.RegisterAsync the extra properties are mapped like this:
input.MapExtraPropertiesTo(user);
So even after adding Name and Surname as extra properties to RegisterDto those properties will not get mapped to the IdentityUser object.
Only option to avoid modifying source code seems to be to override the AccountAppService by calling the base method, map add'l properties after create, and do a follow up UserManager.UpdateAsync.
public override async Task<IdentityUserDto> RegisterAsync(RegisterDto input)
{
var baseResult = await base.RegisterAsync(input);
// Handle extra properties
var user = await UserManager.GetByIdAsync(baseResult.Id);
user.Surname = input.GetSurname();
user.Name = input.GetName();
await UserManager.UpdateAsync(user);
var result = ObjectMapper.Map<IdentityUser, IdentityUserDto>(user);
return result;
}
It would be nice if there was a way to make MapExtraPropertiesTo extension method also map to regular properties. After checking the source, it seems that this is only possible using AutoMapper MapExtraProperties which would still require modifying module source code.
Thoughts?

Hi,
Following up on this, possibly the "right" way to do this might be to add another Identity Server extension grant to exchange an external login token for a ID4 token:

Does the ABP team have thoughts on this or is another approach recommended?
Hi,
Yes that's the part we're trying to figure out. In a mobile app I'd like to stick with client-side social login without transferring to the API UI. In ASP.NET Zero there was an ExternalAuthenticate endpoint that was called by Angular but i don't see that in abp.io
Hi,
I should've specified a little more. We've been trying to follow the flow of Angular solution. At some point it looks like a redirect to the ASPNET Core app happens and there is logic to display a register screen if the user is new. Would we try to do the same in RN? Basically looking for guidance on what endpoints to call to auto register the user in ABP.
Thanks!
Hi,
We are looking to enable external social logins in the React Native app. Taking Google sign-in for example, what would be the general approach in enabling this in the mobile app?
