Auth0
Overview
Auth0 is an identity and access management platform that provides secure authentication, user management, and organization modeling capabilities. In Zenskar, you can connect Auth0 as a data source to sync user and organization data, enabling identity-aware billing workflows and enriched customer records. The Zenskar Auth0 data-source connector fetches data from Auth0 Management API.
Prerequisites
- Sign up for an account in Auth0.
- Register a Machine to Machine Application named Zenskar. This allows Zenskar to make scheduled calls to Auth0 and generate access tokens automatically.
- Get Management API access tokens for production. Zenskar uses the Management API V2.
- Grant a set of permissions (or scopes) to the Machine to Machine Application named Zenskar.
