Auth0 APIs
Auth0 exposes the following APIs for developers to consume in their applications.
Authentication API
The Authentication API exposes identity functionality for Auth0 and supported identity protocols (including Connect, , and ). Typically, you should consume this API through one of the Auth0 SDKs, such as Auth0.js, or a library like Lock. However, if you are building your authentication UI manually, you will need to call the Authentication API directly. Some example tasks include:- Get tokens during authentication
- Request a user’s profile using an Access Token
- Exchange Refresh Tokens for new
- Request a challenge for multi-factor authentication (MFA)
