[keycloak-user] attributes are not persisted

[Marek Posolda]

Maybe it's better to rather extend registration form as described here: 
https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_development/index.html#modifying-extending-the-registration-form 


Alternative is, to update user directly in the LOGIN event after 
REGISTER event, but not 100% sure this one will work. Also even if it 
works, it's more a workaround.
