Hi! I have been trying to send the user\_id to the Watson Assistant V2 node in different ways but I could not find anyone that worked.

I tried:

msg.user\_id  
msg.params.user\_id  
msg.params.context.user\_id  
msg.params.context.metadata,user\_id  
msg.params.context.glogal.system.user\_id  
msg.addiltinal\_context.glogal.system.user\_id

In the node documentation there is no mention of the user\_id, only session\_id.  
user\_id is important as the billing of the assistant is measured by the monthly active users.  
I cannot add it in the payload as payload only allow a "string" as the input text from the client.

Many thanks!!
