How do I know a user is stored in auth0 database?

[hyun.park]

Hello, I have a question about auth0 database.

Currently, I am using custom database and “Import Users to Auth mode” is enabled.

When a user login successfully, I can see the user in User Management > Users.

Does that mean the user is stored in auth0 database?

If I call auth0 api to get users, it returns user data. Does that mean the user is stored in auth0 database?

Thanks for reaching out to the Auth0 Community!

Yes, the user exists in the Auth0 database. When you switch on the Import users to Auth0 toggle, it enables trickle migration AKA automatic migration.

The migration happens when a user who is not found in the Auth0 database logs in for the first time. Once that happens, you can verify that they have migrated by calling the Management API get users endpoint or on the Auth0 Dashboard > User management > Users.

See here for more details.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you.
