[Bug]: "Created By" Field Not Displaying User Name on Brain Creation #89

Description

@rutvi-weam-ai

Overview
When a brain is created, the "Created By" field is not displaying the name of the user who created it. This seems to be due to either a missing user association, misconfigured data mapping, or a failure to fetch/display the related user data in the frontend or backend.

Affected Endpoint and Files

  • Frontend Page: Brain detail view (creation metadata section)
  • Backend Controller/Service (possible): Brain creation logic (user association)
  • Database Field (if applicable): Creator/User reference field

Evidence
Screenshot showing the issue: https://prnt.sc/JFkEHx5HSm2Q
The “Created By” field is either blank or shows no identifying information for the user who created the brain.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Login with a valid user account.
  2. Create a new brain from the UI.
  3. Navigate to the created brain's details page.
  4. Observe the "Created By" field — it does not show the user's name.

Expected Behavior
The "Created By" field should show the full name (or username) of the user who created the brain.

Actual Behavior
The field is empty or shows no valid identifying information, despite the brain being successfully created.

Impact

  • Reduces traceability and accountability.
  • Hinders auditability, especially in collaborative or multi-user environments.
  • May affect user trust and system transparency.

Proposed Remediation

  • Ensure that the user information is properly associated during brain creation.
  • Confirm that the frontend is fetching and displaying the correct user metadata.
  • Validate that user identifiers (name/email) are accessible and not restricted due to missing permissions or incorrect population logic.
