External API call in Auth0 Rules

[dan.woda]

Hi @Vandit,

Rules are JS functions built on Node. This means JQuery and AJAX aren’t applicable here.

Take a look at this page to see what Node modules are available in rules.

This FAQ shows an example API call to the management API. Although this is another auth0 API, you should be able to take this example and apply it to your scenario.

How do I add a default role to a new user on first login?

Question: How do I assign a default role to a new user on first login? Answer: If you are using the Authorization Core, you can leverage the Management API in a rule to assign a role based on login count. Example Rule: function (user, context, callback) { const count = context.stats && context.stats.loginsCount ? context.stats.loginsCount : 0; if (count > 1) { return callback(null, user, context); } const ManagementClient = require('auth0@2.27.0').ManagementClient; …

Hope this helps,
Dan
