[ConvexAuth] settings values of custom users fields, on user creation

Hey, i've been looking through the docs. And would imagine settings some values for the fields i have customized on the schema for users, when the users get created. Would be done in the account callback configuration? But looking at the API, i've failed to figure out how to use this callback: I wanna achieve setting some of the custom fields i define when i create a user 
import { convexAuth } from '@convex-dev/auth/server';
import { Password } from '@convex-dev/auth/providers/Password';

export const { auth, signIn, signOut, store } = convexAuth({
  providers: [Password],
  callbacks: {
    async createOrUpdateUser(ctx, args) {
      // How do i know which account this is for?

      // Create a new user
      return await ctx.db.insert('users', {
        accountId: accountIdFromSomewhere, // Account id from where ?
        //..
        // my custom fields
        role: 'user',
      });

      // Handle different cases, like updating etc.
    },
  },
  session: {
    totalDurationMs: 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 30, // 90 days
    inactiveDurationMs: 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 7, // 7 days
  },
});
import { convexAuth } from '@convex-dev/auth/server';
import { Password } from '@convex-dev/auth/providers/Password';

export const { auth, signIn, signOut, store } = convexAuth({
  providers: [Password],
  callbacks: {
    async createOrUpdateUser(ctx, args) {
      // How do i know which account this is for?

      // Create a new user
      return await ctx.db.insert('users', {
        accountId: accountIdFromSomewhere, // Account id from where ?
        //..
        // my custom fields
        role: 'user',
      });

      // Handle different cases, like updating etc.
    },
  },
  session: {
    totalDurationMs: 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 30, // 90 days
    inactiveDurationMs: 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 7, // 7 days
  },
});

At first i didn't realize that the accountId was not nessecary, as when the userId is returned they get linked. This is what confused me a bit. Leaving this here for others in the same situation
