I have enabled third party auth with my external app , Now what i want to achieve is if the user is already registered and verifieid on external app , it should automatically register that user on openedx platform when it try to sign in for the first time. The details that i get from external app does not include full name which is necessary for registration so openedx platform ultimately lands up in a web error.
I already have an idea how to reolve this error. I can add a function in social_auth_pipeline which will create full name from first name and last name.
I want suggestions on how can I resolve this issue using plugin or hook or filter.
I added django app in the lms container and installed it with pip , when i do pip list, it shows up.
Here are the contents

logger = logging.getLogger(name)
def add_full_name(strategy, details, *args, **kwargs):
“”"
Social-auth pipeline step: ensure details[‘fullname’] is ‘First Last’.
“”"
logger.warning(“
FULLNAMEPIPELINE CALLED for user %s”, details)
first = (details.get(“first_name”) or “”).strip()
last = (details.get(“last_name”) or “”).strip()
full = f"{first} {last}".strip()
full = “FUll name”
Only set fullname if we actually built something
if full:
Either mutate in place or return an update dict; both are acceptable.
details[“fullname”] = full
return {“details”: details}
return None

Insert our step right after the built-in social_details step.
