Auth0
Auth0 provides authentication and authorization solutions for web, mobile, and legacy applications.
Use Cases the Adapter Solves

- Monitor Tenant Security Configuration: Track critical Auth0 tenant settings — such as session lifetime, legacy grant type flags, and clickjack protection — directly in Axonius to detect misconfigurations and enforce security baselines.

The value supplied in Client ID must have read:users permissions to fetch assets.
For additional required permissions, see Advanced Settings.
You must do the following before configuring the Auth0 adapter connection screen:
