How to protect my API and give access to consumers through token?

[anshulxyz]

My use case is very simple.

I created an API using the Django REST Framework.
I followed this tutorial Auth0 Django API SDK Quickstarts: Authorization
and it’s working as per the tutorial goes.

Now, it just shows me to create one Access token for myself.

How do I create more tokens for my users, for them to be able to use the API? Been trying to figure out for a few days now, any help is highly appreciated.

My question is similar to this one, How to generate tokens for API users?
But I see he hasn’t gotten any closer to the solution he wanted.

My users will give me a username and I want to give them a token in return for them to be able to access my API.

Be gentle with me, I am new to all this.

This question is very similar to this one, therefore linking this other thread:

Nobody is answering my question in github issue... ... thought I ask here again?

I think this is a general question about the concept of how OAuth2 and JWT / access tokens are meant to be used against an API. This should be a relevant doc with instructions to start with: https://auth0.com/docs/microsites/protect-api/protect-api

Let me know if the linked docs page helps to clarify a bit more.

Short answer: you need to register your API in the Auth0 dashboard, then use its API identifier as audience parameter in the authorize request from within your client application.
