# user_meta creating users

 * Hi, I’m trying to use the user_meta feature to create additional properties when
   creating a new user, but I’m not sure of how to send the data.
 * I’ve set the name of the properties in “Allowed user_meta keys on create user”
   and I understand I have to send a POST to this url “[https://mywordpressdomain/?rest_route=/simple-jwt-login/v1/users&email=NEW_USER_EMAIL&password=NEW_USER_PASSWORD&AUTH_KEY=AUTH_KEY_VALUE&#8221](https://mywordpressdomain/?rest_route=/simple-jwt-login/v1/users&email=NEW_USER_EMAIL&password=NEW_USER_PASSWORD&AUTH_KEY=AUTH_KEY_VALUE&#8221);
 * I’ve tried a query string parameter named “user_meta” containing plain JSON and
   urlencoded JSON, I’ve tried form-data, x-www-form-urlencoded and raw plain text,
   but it never does anything.
 * I’d really appreciate a small example of how to send the user_meta.
 * Thank you.

 * Hello [@pcriadovtec](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pcriadovtec/),
 * Please check the [https://github.com/nicumicle/simple-jwt-login](https://github.com/nicumicle/simple-jwt-login)
   repository. There you have some postman collection.
 * You can set the user meta in the request body, and then it should not be URL 
   encoded.
 * Also, I’ve created this wiki page: [https://github.com/nicumicle/simple-jwt-login/wiki](https://github.com/nicumicle/simple-jwt-login/wiki)
 * Please let me know if this helps you.
 * PS: Don’t forget to rate this plugin and spread the word about it.
 * Best regards,
    Nicu.
