Is there any way to create organization after user create hook?

Im getting UNAUTHORIZED error because im trying to create an organization for user with using user : { create : { after { } }} hook. Is there any way to avoid it?
Solution:
since you have the user id, remove headers and pass userId in the body instead

databaseHooks: {
        user: {
            create: {
                after: async (user) => {
                    try {

                        // Create a default organization for the user
                        const organization = await auth.api.createOrganization({

body:{
  name: //
  //...
  userId: user.id
}
body:{
  name: //
  //...
  userId: user.id
}

hi, I have same question. How can I create an org after new user signs up? In you code snippet how do you get access to auth instance?
Nathan

you can still use the current auth instance, and use the userId: user.id directly like @bekacru , unnecessary to use headers()

I dont have create organization code but i have set active organization to session for every sign in 
  databaseHooks: {
    session: {
      create: {
        before: async (session) => {
          try {
            const user = await getUserInfo(session.userId);
            if (user?.isCompletedOnboarding) {
              const organization = await getActiveOrganization(session.userId);
              return {
                data: {
                  ...session,
                  activeOrganizationId: organization?.id,
                },
              };
            } else {
              return {
                data: session,
              };
            }
          } catch (error) {
            return {
              data: session,
            };
          }
        },
      },
    },
  databaseHooks: {
    session: {
      create: {
        before: async (session) => {
          try {
            const user = await getUserInfo(session.userId);
            if (user?.isCompletedOnboarding) {
              const organization = await getActiveOrganization(session.userId);
              return {
                data: {
                  ...session,
                  activeOrganizationId: organization?.id,
                },
              };
            } else {
              return {
                data: session,
              };
            }
          } catch (error) {
            return {
              data: session,
            };
          }
        },
      },
    },
Its easy to make
