In this tutorial, you'll learn about Auth0 User Management. We cover key concepts, practical examples, and best practices to help you understand and apply this topic effectively.

The Auth0 Management API provides programmatic access to user directory operations.

const auth0 = new ManagementClient({
  domain: '{tenant}.auth0.com',
  clientId: process.env.AUTH0_CLIENT_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET
});

// Search users with query syntax
const users = await auth0.users.getAll({
  q: 'app_metadata.org_id:"org_123" AND email_verified:true',
  search_engine: 'v3',
  fields: 'user_id,email,app_metadata,last_login',
  include_fields: true,
  per_page: 50
});

// Update user metadata
await auth0.users.update(
  { id: 'auth0|user123' },
  {
    app_metadata: {
      scan_quota: 150,
      last_scan_date: new Date().toISOString()
    },
    user_metadata: {
      preferred_scan_type: 'deep'
    }
  }
);

// Bulk user export
// Dashboard -> Users -> Export Users

The Management API enables automated user lifecycle management, from provisioning to deactivation.
