Android FirebaseUI get extra info about user from from provider

Question

I'm using FirebaseUI Android for users login with following code:

 startActivityForResult(
                AuthUI.getInstance().createSignInIntentBuilder()
                        .setLogo(R.drawable.firebase_auth_120dp)
                        .setProviders(getSelectedProviders())
                        .setIsSmartLockEnabled(false)
                        .setTheme(R.style.AppTheme)
                        .build(),
                RC_SIGN_IN);

private String[] getSelectedProviders() {
        ArrayList<String> selectedProviders = new ArrayList<>();
        selectedProviders.add(AuthUI.EMAIL_PROVIDER);
        selectedProviders.add(AuthUI.GOOGLE_PROVIDER);
        selectedProviders.add(AuthUI.FACEBOOK_PROVIDER);
        return selectedProviders.toArray(new String[selectedProviders.size()]);
    }

And getting data from onActivityResult with following code:

if (requestCode == RC_SIGN_IN) {
            handleSignInResponse(resultCode, data);
            return;
        }

Everything is OK. I'm getting user's Display name, email, photo url, and uid with following:

FirebaseUser currentUser = FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser();
currentUser.*();

Now I'm getting just limited data about user. I also want user's date of birth, bio and interest etc. How I can get that?

This appears to have been answered here: Firebase Auth get additional user info (age, gender)

Unfortunately, Firebase doesn't have any built-in functionality to get the user's gender/birthdate upon successful login. You would have to retrieve these data from each of the providers yourself.
