Summary

FusionAuth version 1.20 introduces the ability to manage custom user profile data directly from the administrative user interface, eliminating the need for separate applications to edit profile information. This update allows administrators to customize registration and profile management forms, enhancing user data handling for applications such as a real estate search platform. By leveraging roles, FusionAuth provides fine-grained access control, ensuring only designated personnel can modify user profiles. Custom fields, like user status in the home buying process, can be added to track user interactions. Additionally, forms can be tailored for various applications and tenants, offering flexibility and reusability, while the API and client libraries support programmatic modifications. This functionality fosters efficient user management without requiring extensive coding, allowing businesses to maintain and update user data seamlessly within FusionAuth's system.
