Introduction:

Generally, Magento offers creating events and observers. It is one type of Magento class where the created observer helps in identifying the performance, general behavior and to improve your business logic. Mainly, the observers are initiated whenever the events are created and implemented by the event manager. Here, I will help you to get admin user data in the observer.

Steps to get admin user data in observer:

Firstly, you need to create a separate extension or just inject the file in some other extension. both will work to get admin user data in the observer.

Step 1: Create event.xml in your extension at the below-given path:

Path: app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\event.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd">
    <event name="backend_auth_user_login_success">
        <observer name="backend_auth_user_login_success_observer" instance="Vendor\Extension\Observer\Backenduserobserver" />
    </event>
</config>

Step 2: After this, you need to create an observer file at the below path.

Path: app\code\Vendor\Extension\Observer\Backenduserobserver.php

<?php
namespace Vendor\Extension\Observer;

class Backenduserobserver implements \Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface
{
    public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer)
    {
        $user = $observer->getEvent()->getUser();

        $writer = new \Zend\Log\Writer\Stream(BP . '/var/log/ login_success.log');
        $logger = new \Zend\Log\Logger();
        $logger->addWriter($writer);
        $logger->info($user->getData());

        return $this;
    }
}

That’s it this will provide you all the data while any user is login into the backend.
