-Authentication API Client
+Configure the SDK
+Authentication API Client
This client must be used to access Auth0's Authentication API.
The AuthenticationClient constructor takes an optional client ID, if specified it will be used as default value for all endpoints that accept a client ID.

+Management API Client
++Note: When using the ManagementClient in a browser you should set

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.
Initialize your client class with an API v2 token and a domain.

To obtain automatically a Management API token via the ManagementClient, you can specify the parameters clientId
, clientSecret
(use a Non Interactive Client) and optionally scope
.
-Behind the scenes the Client Credentials Grant is used to obtain the access_token
and is by default cached for the duration of the returned expires_in
value.

---Make sure your ClientId is allowed to request tokens from Management API in Auth0 Dashboard

To obtain a Management API token from your node backend, you can use Client Credentials Grant using your registered Auth0 Non Interactive Clients
-var AuthenticationClient = require('auth0').AuthenticationClient;
-
-var auth0 = new AuthenticationClient({
- domain: '{YOUR_ACCOUNT}.auth0.com',
- clientId: '{CLIENT_ID}',
- clientSecret: '{CLIENT_SECRET}',

-auth0.clientCredentialsGrant(

- audience: 'https://{YOUR_ACCOUNT}.auth0.com/api/v2/',
- scope: '{MANAGEMENT_API_SCOPES}',
- },
- function (err, response) {
- if (err) {
- // Handle error.
- }
- console.log(response.access_token);
- }
-);
-
-Also you can request a token when the user authenticates using any of our client side SDKs, e.g. auth0.js.
-Promises and callbacks
-Be aware that all methods can be used with promises or callbacks. However, when a callback is provided no promise will be returned.
-// Using callbacks.
-management.getUsers(function (err, users) {
- if (err) {
- // handle error.
- }
- console.log(users);
-});
-
-// Using promises.
-management
- .getUsers()
- .then(function (users) {
- console.log(users);
- })
- .catch(function (err) {
- // Handle error.
- });

-Typescript
-The types for this library are currently maintained by the community at Definitely Typed. The team is planning taking ownership of this library as discussed in https://github.com/auth0/node-auth0/issues/572. After the team has taken ownership we will remove this net from the Readme.
-Troubleshooting
-Getting Error: Can't resolve 'superagent-proxy'
when bundling with Webpack
-We have a dependency on rest-facade
which require
s but doesn't include superagent-proxy
. This SDK doesn't support proxies, so this dependency is not required. To workaround this you can add the following to your webpack.config.js
:
resolve: {
- alias: {
- 'superagent-proxy': false
- }
-}
-
-Or install superagent-proxy
yourself.
