Problem statement

During the development phase of a login use case, there is an API running locally which an Auth0 Action will need to make a request to during the login transaction.

Is it possible to test this setup where an Auth0 Action will make a request to an API that’s only running locally?

Solution

This is not currently possible, an API will need to be hosted and reachable over the Internet in order for an Action to make a successful request.
