Hey everyone, I don’t fully understand why can I create and update any content on Strapi through up-users (users permissions user), and the fields createdBy and updatedBy in only populated when I do through admin users.

This behavior is correct? If we build our frontend and 99% of the requests is through REST and graphql, using up-user, these fields are entirely useless with this behavior

In my point of view, these columns have to be related to up_users, and don’t to admin_users, this way is very more util, because today, with I wanna track what users created or uptaded some register, I need to create two new columns related to up_users, and discard these two default columns
