Hi Auth0 Support Team,

We are planning to integrate Auth0 into our application and would like some guidance on the recommended approach for managing and deploying Auth0 configurations across environments.

Specifically, we have the following questions:

  1. Recommended mechanism for maintaining and deploying Auth0 configurations:
    For tasks such as creating/updating clients, creating/updating Actions, and managing other Auth0 resources, what is the suggested best‑practice approach?

    • Should we use the Auth0 Deploy CLI,

    • or is it recommended to implement custom automation/code using the Management API?

  2. Auth0 Deploy CLI capabilities and limitations:
    If we use the Deploy CLI, are there any known limitations we should be aware of? For example:

    • Can the Deploy CLI create new clients, or does it only support updates to existing clients?

    • Are there any restrictions for creating or updating Actions, rules, or other resources through the CLI?

We want to ensure we follow the recommended deployment strategy and properly automate our configuration management from the start. Any documentation or best‑practice guidance you can share would be greatly appreciated.
