In the plugin:

> <https://github.com/discourse/discourse-oauth2-basic/blob/main/plugin.rb>

This code is used:

result = Auth::Result.new  
result.extra\_data = “some value”

Where is that extra\_data value saved? I’ve checked various tables but have yet to find it. Thought I’d check here before having to traverse them all.

Thanks

Normally `extra_data` will be carried until the new users complete their signup process. Then it will be used [here](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-oauth2-basic/blob/ee5bca98f0854362ef5063e7960da426ecbc59fa/plugin.rb#L118).

Thanks, that helped me find what I was looking for. The data I was looking for gets stored in the plugin\_store\_rows table.
