Authenticating to Your Tenant
Authenticating to your Auth0 tenant is required for most functions of the CLI. It can be initiated by running:
auth0 login
There are two ways to authenticate:
As a user - Recommended when invoking on a personal machine or other interactive environment. Facilitated by device authorization flow.
As a machine - Recommended when running on a server or non-interactive environments (ex: CI). Facilitated by client credentials flow. Flags available for bypassing interactive shell.
Warning
Authenticating as a user is not supported for private cloud tenants. Instead, those users should authenticate with client credentials.
To change the text editor used for editing templates, rules, and actions, set the environment variable EDITOR to your
preferred editor. If choosing a non-terminal editor, ensure that the command starts the editor and waits for the files
to be closed before returning.
Examples:
# Uses vscode with the --wait flag.
export EDITOR="code --wait"
# Uses sublime text with the --wait flag.
export EDITOR="subl --wait"
# Uses nano, a terminal based editor.
export EDITOR="nano"
# Uses vim, a terminal based editor.
export EDITOR="vim"
