Overview
This article describes how to disable the Flexible Identifiers and Attributes feature (Attributes tab) for a database connection.
Applies To
- Flexible Identifiers and Attributes
- Database Connection
Solution
At the moment, the Flexible Identifiers and Attributes feature can only be disabled via the Auth0 Management API.
- Use the
GET /api/v2/connections/{id}endpoint
to retrieve the existing settings of the connection. Theconnection_id
can be retrieved from the tenant dashboard. See Get a connection for more details. - Save the
options
object in the connection settings retrieved from the GET /api/v2/connections/{id} endpoint, and remove theoptions.attributes
object from it. - Use the
PATCH /api/v2/connections/{id}
endpoint to update the connection with the revised options object. See Update a connection for more details.
NOTE: The options
objects in the PATCH request overwrites the existing options
, so all the other settings in the options
object except the options.attributes
must be included in the PATCH request.
- After the
PATCH /api/v2/connections/{id}
request succeeds, check in the tenant dashboard > Authentication > Database → select the database connection that the Attributes was disabled > select the Attributes tab > the Activate button is available again which means the feature is not disabled.
