Getting started

Requirements

This library follows the same support policy as Go. The last two major Go releases are actively supported and compatibility issues will be fixed. While you may find that older versions of Go may work, we will not actively test and fix compatibility issues with these versions.

• Go 1.19+

Installation

go get github.com/auth0/go-auth0

Usage

package main

import (
	"log"

	"github.com/auth0/go-auth0"
	"github.com/auth0/go-auth0/management"
)

func main() {
	// Get these from your Auth0 Application Dashboard.
	// The application needs to be a Machine To Machine authorized
	// to request access tokens for the Auth0 Management API,
	// with the desired permissions (scopes).
	domain := "example.auth0.com"
	clientID := "EXAMPLE_16L9d34h0qe4NVE6SaHxZEid"
	clientSecret := "EXAMPLE_XSQGmnt8JdXs23407hrK6XXXXXXX"

	// Initialize a new client using a domain, client ID and client secret.
	// Alternatively you can specify an access token:
	// `management.WithStaticToken("token")`
	auth0API, err := management.New(
		domain,
		management.WithClientCredentials(clientID, clientSecret),
	)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to initialize the auth0 management API client: %+v", err)
	}

	// Now we can interact with the Auth0 Management API.
	// Example: Creating a new client.
	client := &management.Client{
		Name:        auth0.String("My Client"),
		Description: auth0.String("Client created through the Go SDK"),
	}

	// The passed in client will get hydrated with the response.
	// This means that after this request, we will have access
	// to the client ID on the same client object.
	err = auth0API.Client.Create(client)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to create a new client: %+v", err)
	}

	// Make use of the getter functions to safely access
	// fields without causing a panic due nil pointers.
	log.Printf(
		"Created an auth0 client successfully. The ID is: %q",
		client.GetClientID(),
	)
}

Rate Limiting

The Auth0 Management API imposes a rate limit on all API clients. When the limit is reached, the SDK will handle it in the background by retrying the API request when the limit is lifted.

Note The SDK does not prevent http.StatusTooManyRequests errors, instead it waits for the rate limit to be reset based on the value of the X-Rate-Limit-Reset header as the amount of seconds to wait.

Documentation

Overview

Package auth0 provides a client for using the Auth0 Management API.

Usage

import (
    github.com/auth0/go-auth0
    github.com/auth0/go-auth0/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
}

Or using a static token.

m, err := management.New(domain, management.WithStaticToken(token))
if err != nil {
    // handle err
}

With a management client we can then 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
}

Authentication

The auth0 package handles authentication by exchanging the client id and secret supplied when creating a new management client.

This is handled internally using the https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/oauth2 package.

Rate Limiting

The auth0 package also handles rate limiting by respecting the `X-Rate-Limit-*` headers sent by the server.

The amount of time the client waits for the rate limit to be reset is taken from the `X-Rate-Limit-Reset` header as the amount of seconds to wait.

Configuration

There are several other options that can be specified during the creation of a new client.

m, err := management.New(domain,
    management.WithClientCredentials(id, secret),
    management.WithContext(context.Background()),
    management.WithDebug(true))

Request Options

As with the global client configuration, fine-grained configuration can be done on a request basis.

c, err := m.Connection.List(
    management.Context(ctx),
    management.Page(2),
    management.PerPage(10),
    management.IncludeFields("id", "name", "options")
    management.Parameter("strategy", "auth0"),
)
