# Is there a way to initialize Logrocket to update the user's name?

We initialize LogRocket before a user sign-in, so we do not know their name yet... It would be helpful if we can update their names after the fact.

Hi Clariz, this should be possible by calling LogRocket.identify (https://docs.logrocket.com/reference#identify) once the user signs in. Feel free to reach out via live chat or support@logrocket.com and we can help!

Yes, you can do this:

    LogRocket.identify(username, {
      name,
      email: username,
    });
