Create new user with meta

Replies: 0

I’m a few days struggling here and I can’t create a new user using WP REST API and define meta object in the JSON Body.

URL: http://localhost/wp-json/wp/v2/users/
Method: POST
JSON Body:

{
    "username" : "test2",
    "email": "test2@gmail.com",
    "password": "123456",
    "meta": {
        "messengerId": "11223344"
    }

}

The user is created but the meta object is blank “meta”: []

What am I doing wrong?
