Hi @san123 👋 , how to add that information to the response will differ depending on the backend you're using. For the frontend you can extend the query: https://docs.vuestorefront.io/v2/composition/extending-graphql-queries.html

@san123 I asked my go-to expert in CT and he said this: The useUser composable has the load method which populates the user property. You can call the load() method with the following parameter: 
load({
  customQuery: {
    getBasicProfile: 'your-custom-query-name-from-middleware-config'
  }
});
load({
  customQuery: {
    getBasicProfile: 'your-custom-query-name-from-middleware-config'
  }
});
It is described in the useUser documentation here: https://docs.vuestorefront.io/commercetools/composables/use-user.html.
