How do I let a user make an API token so that my website can be accessed by a programme?

[jameswbush]

As a developer, I can create an API Token by connecting to different websites. This lets me use code to call the website instead of using it as a user.

How can I give this API access to my website that uses Auth0 in the best way? Tenant editors (Settings > Tenant Members > Add Member as “Editor - Users”) should be able to create a token for programmatic access just like they can create a user and assign permissions.

Since that’s not a choice, what’s the best choice?

Hi @jameswbush

I think you want the client credentials grant, also known as M2M:

Client Credentials Flow
