# Which Problems Are Solved
Expose impersonating actor to `preAccessToken` and `preUserinfo`
actions.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Provide the `actor` information already present in the OIDC session
model of JWT token to the relevant actions. Both goja-based actions "v1"
and webhook based execution targets carry the actor information now.
Actor remains null in case of non-impersonated tokens. Actor may contain
nested actors to display a delegation chain of impersonators.
# Additional Changes
- dba6261c8ed0dfd00ffde6193910b1405b17432f: refactor `userinfoFlows` to
reduce complexity, add test coverage and solve a couple of potential
bugs.
- `getClientId` in actions was previously undocumented. Added to
documentation.
- A skill that reproduces manual testing using webhook.site or a local
sink.
# Additional Context
- Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/12097

Closes#11369
# Which Problems Are Solved
During SSO login with an external IdP, Actions v2 lets you manipulate
the `RetrieveIdentityProviderIntent` response to shape the user that
ZITADEL creates or updates. There was an inconsistency between the two
flows:
- **First login (user does not exist):** the response carried an
`addHumanUser` object (mirroring the deprecated `AddHumanUser` API),
which **does** allow setting user `metadata`.
- **Subsequent logins (user exists):** the response carried an
`updateHumanUser` object (mirroring the deprecated `UpdateHumanUser`
API), which does **not** support metadata.
As a result, actions could set metadata when creating a user but not
when updating one. Customers doing SSO attribute mapping had to make a
separate `SetUserMetadata` call on every subsequent login — extra
latency and a non-atomic update. The proto/backend already gained a
non-deprecated `user_action` oneof (`create_user` → `CreateUserRequest`,
`update_user` → `UpdateUserRequest`, both supporting metadata), but the
login app was still reading the deprecated flat fields, so the new
capability was unreachable from the frontend.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Migrate the login app's IDP intent handler to consume the new
`user_action` oneof, with a fallback to the deprecated fields so older
API responses keep working during the transition.
- **`zitadel.ts`** — added `createUser` / `updateUser` client wrappers
calling the non-deprecated `UserService.CreateUser` /
`UserService.UpdateUser` endpoints.
- **`idp-intent.ts`** — added three helpers, each preferring
`user_action` and falling back to `add_human_user` /
`update_human_user`:
- `resolveCreateUser` — flat read view for org resolution,
required-field checks, and registration-form pre-fill.
- `buildCreateUserRequest` — passes the action's `CreateUserRequest`
through and injects the resolved `organizationId`; maps the deprecated
flat payload into the nested shape on fallback.
- `buildUpdateUserRequest` — builds an `UpdateUserRequest` **including
metadata** (the fix); deliberately syncs only
profile/email/phone/metadata (not username) to preserve existing
auto-update behavior and avoid invalidating sessions.
- Rewired all handlers (`handleUserExists`, `handleAutoLinking`,
`handleAutoCreation`, `handleManualCreation`,
`resolveOrganizationForUser`) to use these, and switched auto-create to
read `CreateUserResponse.id`.
- **Tests** — updated mocks/assertions to the new request shapes and
added two cases exercising the `user_action` oneof with metadata (create
+ update). 817/817 login unit tests pass; no new type errors.
# Additional Changes
Updated the Actions v2 guide
`guides/integrate/actions/testing-response-manipulation.mdx` (the
unreleased/`latest` docs) to reflect the new response shape:
- Go handler example now manipulates `resp.GetCreateUser()` /
`resp.GetUpdateUser()` and appends `user.Metadata`, demonstrating
metadata on both flows.
- Both JSON payloads switched from `addHumanUser` to the nested
`createUser` shape (`human.profile`, `human.email`, `human.idpLinks`,
top-level `metadata`).
- Added a Callout explaining first-login → `createUser` vs.
existing-user → `updateUser`, that both support metadata, and that
`addHumanUser`/`updateHumanUser` are deprecated.
- Updated the claim-mapping debugging section to the new
`createUser.human.profile.givenName` path.
Versioned snapshots (`v4.12`/`v4.13`/`v4.14`) were intentionally left
unchanged, as they document releases where the old API was correct.

# Which Problems Are Solved
- The documentation had no guidance for debugging auto-user-creation
failures caused by unexpected or missing claims from an external IdP,
leaving users without a path forward when they see a
`SetHumanProfile.GivenName` validation error during OIDC login.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Adds a troubleshooting section to the Actions V2 response manipulation
guide explaining how to use the `RetrieveIdentityProviderIntent` webhook
to inspect `rawInformation` and identify claim key mismatches from the
external IdP.
# Additional Changes
- None

## Problem statement
- `<Tabs>` were not rendered in docs
- Missing steps in README for local dev
## How it was solved
- Enhance the README to better describe local development setup and
clean up formatting.
- Standardize the use of tabs across various components for consistency.
## Additional info
To not cause merge conflicts with
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/11729 changes in
`/self-hosting/manage/configure/configure.mdx` were skipped
# Which Problems Are Solved
- Docs code blocks that display imported files (YAML configs, Go
examples) render as unstyled plain text with no syntax highlighting,
unlike fenced code blocks which go through `rehypeCode`/Shiki
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Deleted `components/docusaurus/code-block.tsx` entirely — no custom
wrapper is needed anymore
- Replaced all usages with `DynamicCodeBlock` from
`fumadocs-ui/components/dynamic-codeblock` directly in MDX files; it
handles SSR pre-rendering through the same Shiki pipeline as all other
code blocks
- Raw file content (YAML, Go) is imported as strings via webpack's
existing `asset/source` rule already configured in `next.config.mjs` —
no new infrastructure required
- In `_proxy_guide_tls_mode.mdx`, the `Commands` JSX component was
refactored from concatenated JSX array children to a single template
literal string, which is what `DynamicCodeBlock` (and any string-based
highlighter) requires
- All changes applied to both non-versioned docs and versioned snapshots
(v4.10, v4.11)
# Additional Changes
None.
# Additional Context
- Affected MDX files: YAML config files under
`self-hosting/manage/configure/`, reverse-proxy guides,
`self-hosting/deploy/compose.mdx`, and the actions
`testing-request-signature.mdx` guide

# Which Problems Are Solved
Naming inconsistencies - User (Human)
# How the Problems Are Solved
Most of the occurrences have not been changed. `User (Human)` was mostly
changed when talking about code objects and where I felt it was
necessary to distinguish them from machine users.
When both human and machine user occurrences were found, the machine
user has been changed to service account (see

## Todos for release
- [x] Configure Env in docs project on vercel
- [x] Configure Root Path in the docs project on vercel
- [ ] Remove old CSP https://github.com/zitadel/website/pull/1592
## What we did
This pull request migrates the project documentation from the old
`docs/` directory to the new `apps/docs/` directory, introduces a new
documentation system built with Next.js and Fumadocs, and updates all
relevant references, configuration files, and documentation to reflect
this change. It also adds new configuration and ignore files for the new
documentation app, updates CI and linting to exclude the new docs from
certain checks, and revises the contributing guidelines accordingly.
**Documentation System Migration and New Docs App**
* Migrated all documentation from `docs/` to `apps/docs/`, and updated
all references in `README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and other files to
point to the new location.

**Configuration and Tooling Updates**
* Updated `.github/workflows/codeql.yml`, `.golangci.yaml`, and

docs app, and excluded generated content.

**Licensing and Miscellaneous**

`LICENSING.md`.
These changes ensure the documentation is now maintained in a modern,
scalable system and all project tooling is updated to support the new
structure.
