Create User for Joomla

Creates a Joomla user from a flow — registration webhook, CRM sync, or admin approval — instead of a user plugin.

When the flow reaches this step, JOrchestrator executes Create User against your linked site or an external integration, using the field values you set on General and Design. Downstream steps can read the output payload fields defined for this node.

Create User is a action step in the Users group. Action steps run in the middle or end of a flow. They perform work on your CMS, call external services, or transform data for the next step.

Typical reasons teams add Create User to a flow:

• Provision Joomla users from a paid signup or CRM event
• Set groups from payload fields after an If branch
• Email credentials or a welcome path after the account exists

Common patterns on the canvas:

1. Trigger or Webhook → upstream steps → Create User → Send Email or CMS update
2. Scheduled trigger → Create User → Debug (while testing) → production action

Password supports {{placeholders}}; user groups from the list or empty for Registered (ID 2). Password is stored hashed.

Use After Save user event flows for welcome email or provisioning without blocking registration.

The designer shows these tabs for this node:

After this step runs, later nodes can reference these fields using placeholders such as {{create_user.id}}.

• Username (username) must be filled before the flow can be saved.
• Email (email) must be filled before the flow can be saved.

Other steps in the same area of the palette:

• Block User (block-user) — Users
• Create User (wp-create-user) — Users
• Delete User (delete-user) — Users
• Delete User (wp-delete-user) — Users
• Get User (get-user) — Users
