Where is (auth) Display Name populated from?

[jaredakers]

Using auth.SignUp with email, password, in some testing i ended up with an first and last name in the Display Name field of the auth table. However, for the life of me I can't recall how I did that. And can't replicate it.

I am using a public profile table as well, but would like the display name in the auth table as well.

Any idea how to populate the Display Name field?

This comes from OAuth providers and is stored in the raw_user_meta_data column. It is derived from many possible keys there but display_name is one of them.

Haven't seen the code but wanted to add, I am not using display_name and stumbled into this simply by adding first and last name collection. In my public.users (terrible I know should have public.profile), I added a display_name that was independent of anything, so probably will rework it now to just be first + last (got a trigger/func to move the names into the public.users).

const { error } = await supabase.auth.signUp({
    email,
    password,
    options: {
      data: {
        first_name: firstName,
        last_name: lastName,
      },
      emailRedirectTo: `${requestUrl.origin}/auth/callback`,
    },
  });

Adding first & last names in data worked for me.
