# 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

# Which Problems Are Solved
Since #10666 (v4.1+, backported to v4.x), metadata values set through
actions v1 (`api.metadata.push` and `api.v1.user.appendMetadata`) are
always JSON-encoded via `json.Marshal`. This made the write path
consistent with the JSON-based read path, but removed the ability to
store raw (unencoded) metadata values:
- A scalar string is now always stored quoted (`"de"` instead of `de`).
- The previous byte-array convention (mapping a string to an integer
array in the script, handled by `mapBytesToByteArray` introduced in
#5526) now stores the literal integer-array text (e.g. `[100,101]`)
instead of the raw bytes.
Customers migrating from v3.x whose downstream systems base64-decode
metadata values from tokens and expect raw bytes have no way to produce
them anymore — changing the consuming system is not always possible.
Reverting the default is not an option either, as clients that adopted
actions v1 on v4.x now rely on the JSON encoding.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Adds a new, opt-in function `api.v1.user.appendMetadataRaw(key,
value)` to the actions v1 login flows (external / internal
authentication post authentication and pre creation), next to the
existing `appendMetadata`.
- The value is stored as raw bytes without JSON encoding:
- a string is stored as its plain UTF-8 bytes (`de`, not `"de"`)
- byte arrays (`Uint8Array` or a plain array of integers 0-255, the old
convention) are stored as-is, so existing v3 scripts using a
string-to-byte-array helper only need to switch the function name
- other types (and empty values) throw an error
- The existing `appendMetadata` and `api.metadata.push` behavior remains
byte-for-byte unchanged.
# Additional Changes
- Documented `appendMetadataRaw` (and the JSON encoding behavior of
`appendMetadata`) in the external and internal authentication actions
docs.
- Added unit tests for the new function (through a real goja runtime)
and a test locking in the existing `appendMetadata` JSON-encoding
behavior.
# Additional Context
- Regression introduced as a side effect of #10666 (which fixed#10470);
the raw byte handling was originally introduced in #5526.
- Reported by a customer upgrading from v3.4.x to v4.16.x, whose
PostAuthentication action maps token payload claims into user metadata.
- Requires backport to v4.x.

# Which Problems Are Solved
This PR fixes the self-management of users for metadata and own removal
and improves the corresponding permission checks.
While looking into the problems, I also noticed that there's a bug in
the metadata mapping when using `api.metadata.push` in actions v1 and
that re-adding a previously existing key after its removal was not
possible.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Added a parameter `allowSelfManagement` to checkPermissionOnUser to
not require a permission if a user is changing its own data.
- Updated use of `NewPermissionCheckUserWrite` including prevention of
self-management for metadata.
- Pass permission check to the command side (for metadata functions) to
allow it implicitly for login v1 and actions v1.
- Use of json.Marshal for the metadata mapping (as with
`AppendMetadata`)
- Check the metadata state when comparing the value.
# Additional Changes
- added a variadic `roles` parameter to the `CreateOrgMembership`
integration test helper function to allow defining specific roles.
# Additional Context
- noted internally while testing v4.1.x
- requires backport to v4.x
- closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/10470
- relates to https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/10426
# Which Problems Are Solved
We found some paths in the login UI, where requests without any
`AuthRequest` were not handled correctly and could potentially panic.
This also includes providing the `AuthRequest` as part of `ctx` object
in actions V1.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Check for the existance of an `AuthRequest` were needed and return an
error otherwise.
- Provide correct state of the `AuthRequest` for actions V1
# Additional Changes
None
# Additional Context
- Noticed as part of a support request
- requires backport to at least 2.70.x

# Which Problems Are Solved
It was not possible to use the `api.v1.appendUserGrant` function in the
`postCreation` trigger action as documented.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Correctly initialize the javascript / Goja function
- Added `projectID` and `projectGrantID` (as documented), but kept
`projectId` and `projectGrantId` (for backwards compatibility) when
mapping the object in the `appendUserGrant` function
# Additional Changes
None
# Additional Context
- A customer reached out to support regarding this issue.
- requires back port to 2.70.x

This implementation increases parallel write capabilities of the eventstore.
Please have a look at the technical advisories: [05](https://zitadel.com/docs/support/advisory/a10005) and [06](https://zitadel.com/docs/support/advisory/a10006).
The implementation of eventstore.push is rewritten and stored events are migrated to a new table `eventstore.events2`.
If you are using cockroach: make sure that the database user of ZITADEL has `VIEWACTIVITY` grant. This is used to query events.
* deprecated `ctx.v1.userinfo`-field in "pre userinfo creation" trigger in favour of `ctx.v1.claims`. The trigger now behaves the same as "pre access token creation"
* added `ctx.v1.claims` to "complement tokens" flow
* added `ctx.v1.grants` to "complement tokens" flow
* document `ctx.v1.getUser()` in "complement tokens" flow
* feat(actions): add getUser() and grant
* map user grants
* map claims
* feat(actions): claims in complement token ctx
* docs(actions): add new fields of complement token
* docs(actions): additions to complement token
* docs(actions): correct field names
* fix(actions): provide browser info and handle nil pointer
* fix(actions): use correct user id in post registration
