Searching app metadata, is this switched off permanently for new accounts?
Reading this document on app metadata: Understand How Metadata Works in User Profiles
specifically this:
New tenants, starting September 1st
2017, cannot search any of the
app_metadata fields.Paid tenants (i.e. tenants that have a
credit card associated in the
Dashboard), that were created up to
August 31st 2017, can search using the
app_metadata fields.
does this means new paid tenants after August 31st 2017 cannot perform search?
We have build our framework to use app_metadata similar to this:
{
"tenants":
{
"id": "XXXXXX",
"login_enabled": true,
"role": "Administrator",
"permissions": ]
}
]
}
based on previous recommendations nohow to use app_metadata for multi-tenancy.
If we cannot search meta_data, this has massive implications and what is the alternative?
UPDATE:
I haven re received the email “Your action is required…” to use an alternative method to search by email, however what happens with other searches e.g., we have a multi-tenant app where all our searches include a filter by tenantId?
Is this change mandatory? as we have 2 implementations (since things changed between v1 and v2 and would have a lot of work to do, again… because of decisions made by Auth0)
Also what happens with older implementations e.g. which older non OIDC .net core libraries (3.7 I think) are those going be updated for the new changes?
In any event, this single new method won’t solve the problem for us or auth0 since we have other search criteria?
Is metadata is being discontinued? If we cannot search metadata, what is the point of it? and why not tell everyone this is actually going to happen?
This really not clear and very frustrating? We are trying to implement a new application waiting on answer and now need to build and go back and re-work implementation against unknowns, this is not a great experience and just gets worse.
