Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/issues/1407

I'm working with Better-Auth and need to associate additional data with my users, stored in a separate table. I'm trying to figure out the best way to create a relationship between the User data managed by Better-Auth and this other table.

Is there currently a supported method, or recommended approach, for achieving this? I'm not sure what the best practice is within the context of Better-Auth.

Any guidance or suggestions you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

You can add additional field for the referencing field and to return the additional table information on a session you can use custom session

Ohh thanks a lot! But I was aiming for a many-to-many relation type thing. Like my user will have multiple courses attached to it and the course will have multiple users attached to it
