Real-Time User Metadata Update Events & Synchronization

Currently, user metadata updates made externally are not automatically synchronized to active SDK sessions. Developers must manually call CometChat.getUser(UID) to fetch the latest metadata, and there is no real-time event or webhook available to notify applications when user metadata changes.

We request the following enhancements:

• Introduce a real-time SDK event/listener that triggers when a user’s metadata or profile information is updated.

• Provide webhook support for user update events, including metadata changes.

• Offer an automatic metadata synchronization mechanism for active user sessions, reducing the need for manual polling via getUser().

• Ensure updated metadata is reflected across all logged-in devices and sessions in near real time.

This enhancement would improve developer experience, reduce network polling, and enable applications to react immediately to user metadata changes without requiring logout/login or periodic refreshes.
