go get github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2
This client can be used to access Auth0's Authentication API.
package main
import (
"context"
"log"
"github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2/authentication"
"github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2/authentication/database"
"github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2/authentication/oauth"
)
func main() {
// Get these from your Auth0 Application Dashboard.
domain := "example.us.auth0.com"
clientID := "EXAMPLE_16L9d34h0qe4NVE6SaHxZEid"
clientSecret := "EXAMPLE_XSQGmnt8JdXs23407hrK6XXXXXXX"
// Initialize a new client using a domain, client ID and client secret.
authAPI, err := authentication.New(
context.TODO(), // Replace with a Context that better suits your usage
domain,
authentication.WithClientID(clientID),
authentication.WithClientSecret(clientSecret), // Optional depending on the grants used
)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("failed to initialize the auth0 authentication API client: %+v", err)
}
// Now we can interact with the Auth0 Authentication API.
// Sign up a user
userData := database.SignupRequest{
Connection: "Username-Password-Authentication",
Username: "mytestaccount",
Password: "mypassword",
Email: "mytestaccount@example.com",
}
createdUser, err := authAPI.Database.Signup(context.Background(), userData)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("failed to sign user up: %+v", err)
}
// Login using OAuth grants
tokenSet, err := authAPI.OAuth.LoginWithAuthCodeWithPKCE(context.Background(), oauth.LoginWithAuthCodeWithPKCERequest{
Code: "test-code",
CodeVerifier: "test-code-verifier",
}, oauth.IDTokenValidationOptions{})
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("failed to retrieve tokens: %+v", err)
}
}
Note The context package can be used to pass cancellation signals and deadlines to the Client for handling a request. If there is no context available then
context.Background()
can be used.
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 a domain and token:
package main
import (
"context"
"log"
"github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2/management/option"
management "github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2/management/client"
)
func main() {
mgmt, err := management.New(
"{YOUR_TENANT_AND REGION}.auth0.com",
option.WithToken("{YOUR_API_V2_TOKEN}"), // Replace with a Context that better suits your usage
)
}
Or use client credentials:
package main
import (
"context"
"log"
"github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2/management/option"
management "github.com/auth0/go-auth0/v2/management/client"
)
func main() {
mgmt, err := management.New(
"{YOUR_TENANT_AND REGION}.auth0.com",
option.WithClientCredentials(context.TODO(), clientID, clientSecret), // Replace with a Context that better suits your usage
)
}
