Management API

The Auth0 Management API is meant to be used by back-end servers or trusted parties performing administrative tasks. Generally speaking, anything that can be done through the Auth0 dashboard (and more) can also be done through this API.

Usage

import (
	"gopkg.in/auth0.v5"
	"gopkg.in/auth0.v5/management"
)

Initialize a new client using a domain, client ID and secret.

m, err := management.New(domain, management.WithClientCredentials(id, secret))
if err != nil {
	// handle err
}

With the management client we can now interact with the Auth0 Management API.

c := &management.Client{
	Name:        auth0.String("Client Name"),
	Description: auth0.String("Long description of client"),
}

err = m.Client.Create(c)
if err != nil {
	// handle err
}

fmt.Printf("Created client %s\n", c.ClientID)

The following Auth0 resources are supported:

Tests

The tests must run against an Auth0 tenant. They also need an M2M app in that tenant that has been authorized to call the Management API. You can easily set one of these up by creating an API Explorer Application in your tenant.

Then simply create a local .env file with the following settings:

  • AUTH0_DOMAIN: The Domain of the M2M app
  • AUTH0_CLIENT_ID: The Client ID of the M2M app
  • AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET: The Client Secret of the M2M app
  • AUTH0_DEBUG: Set to true to call the Management API in debug mode, which dumps the HTTP requests and responses to the output

What is Auth0?

Auth0 helps you to:

  • Add authentication with multiple authentication sources, either social like Google, Facebook, Microsoft Account, LinkedIn, GitHub, Twitter, Box, Salesforce, amont others, or enterprise identity systems like Windows Azure AD, Google Apps, Active Directory, ADFS or any SAML Identity Provider.
  • Add authentication through more traditional username/password databases.
  • Add support for linking different user accounts with the same user.
  • Support for generating signed Json Web Tokens to call your APIs and flow the user identity securely.
  • Analytics of how, when and where users are logging in.
  • Pull data from other sources and add it to the user profile, through JavaScript rules.
