I have the same need. The use case is to call custom API from auth0 action.

Hi folks, this feature is now live! Read more here: Actions Caching Is Now Available

Really disappointed that caching isn’t available in Actions like in Rules. Back to rules I suppose.

This seems like a fundamentally missing feature from actions. With token caching being recommended across Auth0 documentation, it seems like a complete oversight to not support it in the platform itself, especially when there’s a big warning on the top of the Rules page, which would be the cacheabl…

Hi all, I moved these requests to their own feedback item specific for a caching mechanism in Actions. On this front, our team is actively investigating a solution for this. Stay tuned for more info.

I have the same need! Is there a way to cache on auth0 actions?

According to this article ( Actions Limitations ), the overall cache size is 8192 bytes. It means that not too many tokens can be stored there. Could you also provide a working sample of an Action that implements this feature?

@dominik.wloadarz , we are working on an example FAQ. We can post it here when it is published. cc: @ty.frith

According to the implementation it seems that one would be capable of storing maybe up to 8 tokens (assumption 1 jwt == 1kB) and that’s it (action limitations → 8kB of cache). So in a M2M scenario 1 API would be able to use up to 8 clients?

Agreed - this seems like a big limitation considering the use case it is supposed to be addressing.

@dominik.wloadarz @ryan.fielding , Thanks for the feedback. Are you running into issues with the cache size limits in practice? The cache is ephemeral, so it may not be holding all those tokens at once. Also, could you please expand on the following use case? [image] dominik.wloadarz: So in a …

@dominik.wloadarz Here’s an FAQ with a rudimentary example:

Note that you also have the ability to remove tokens from cache with api.cache.delete(key) - See documentation here:
