To learn more about what Actions offer, read Understand How Auth0 Actions Work.To help with your migration, we offer guides that will help you migrate from Rules to Actions and migrate from Hooks to Actions. We also have a dedicated Move to Actions page that highlights feature comparisons, an Actions demo, and other resources to help you on your migration journey.To read more about the Rules and Hooks deprecation, read our blog post: Preparing for Rules and Hooks End of Life.
Rules can be used in a variety of situations as part of the authentication pipeline where protocol-specific artifacts are generated:
  • an in Connect (OIDC)
  • an in
  • an assertion in
A new pipeline in which rules execute is created for each authentication request. Auth0 provides a number of pre-existing rules and rule templates to help you achieve your goal(s). To see a list, visit our rules repository on GitHub. You may also want to build your own Rule(s) to support your specific functionality requirements. You can modify a pre-existing rule template or choose to start from scratch using one of our samples. Either way, there are a number of best practices that you’ll want to adopt to ensure that you achieve the best possible outcome.
