Auth0 node.js managementClient > deleteUser return nothing

[matinfo]

Using managementClient deleteUser method return nothing on success:

function deleteUser(userId) {
    return this.managementClient
    .deleteUser({ id: userId }, function (err, data) {
        if (err) {
          // Handle error.
        }
        console.log(data);
        return data
        // User deleted.
    });
  }

Why is the doc is mentioned that return successfully deleted user, but for me return nothing!

I also trying with Promise, same result, nothing returned.

data = '' (empty string)

What I doing wrong?

Hey there @matinfo!

Can you tell us which doc you follow? Thank you!

Also using Premise returned nothing:

function deleteUser(userId) {
    return this.managementClient
      .deleteUser({ id: userId })
      .then(user => user)
      .catch(err => err);
  }

Same issue with assignRolestoUser, removeRolesFromUser.

Not a node-js guy unfortunately but let me dig into it and see what’s the cause behind it

I noticed also that Promise

function deleteUser(userId) {
    return this.managementClient
      .deleteUser({ id: userId })
      .then(user => user)
      .catch(err => err);
  }

dosen’t catch error when we send not existing userId.

Thanks for providing that context. I will connect with our DX-SDKs team to find more about that and let you guys know!

Hey there quick heads-up!

I havent’ heard back from them just yet probably because of their bandwidth capabilities. Let me reping them and get back to you soon!

Hey there!

Finally have some news. The GitHub issue for that has been opened and you can view it here:

https://github.com/auth0/node-auth0/issues/425

Our engineering team is aware of that and will start working on it shortly. Thank you and sorry for any inconvenience!

Hi @konrad.sopala, thank you for the update. In github I’m @matinfo result I also commented on this github issue 20 days ago

[konrad.sopala]

Yep I’m aware of that Also shared this detail with our engineering folks It’s just close to the end of the year and the only thing I can do is to advocate for your case as the team has some closing priorities now. Will let you know once I know anything!
