Can I authenticate a session in a NodeJS serverless function when I'm using Auth0 Passwordless on my front end?

Hi @dan.woda,

I’m not using express. How can I get my secret or public key?

[dan.woda]

Where is the Auth0 public key to be used in jwt.io to verify the signature of a RS256 token?

We use an Auth0 account. I paste an Auth0-generated token into JSON Web Tokens - jwt.io . It shows me the header and payload but for the VERIFY SIGNATURE section it asks me to paste in a public RSA key or certificate or a private RSA key in order to verify the signature. I can see I have a secret for each client we’ve registered in Auth0. But where I can find, or how can I create, an RSA key or certificate?

Hi @dan.woda,

I’ve managed to get the token verified. I used the jsonwebtoken and jwks-rsa packages. Which were used in the quick start guide.

Awesome! Let us know if there is anything else we can do

@dan.woda That article was helpful. Because I’m using Netlify serverless functions. My implementation was different.

I’d like to suggest collaborating on a quick start for developers who use Auth0 and Netlify serverless functions.

How could I go about this?

Thanks for your help.

This sounds like a good candidate for a blog post in our guest authors program. You can check out this page for more info:

Also, feel free to show us what you did in the Community, specifically in the Show Your Auth0 Category.
