Hi @rejon,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community Forum!

Thanks for reaching out. The id_token is not going to be used for access the management API.

Management API Access Tokens

I will also point you to this FAQ because it looks like you are trying to access the management API from a SPA which has some special limitations due to it’s exposed nature.

How do I use the Management API in my single page application?

Question: How do I use the Management API in my single page application? Answer: Because of the exposed nature of single page applications (e.g. React, Angular, Vue), they are limited in scope when it comes to the Management API. You can still get tokens for the Management API from the frontend, but with some limitations. Supporting Documentation:

Please let me know if this helps and if you have any more questions.

Thanks,
Dan
