Hi !!

I need to obtain the permissions of a user for a specific application. My goal is to avoid sending those permissions in the user’s access token, is there any way to do this?

Thanks in advance. 🙂

Hi @bguzman,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

You can get a user’s permissions via this management API endpoint:

> **[Auth0 Management API v2](https://auth0.com/docs/api/management/v2#!/Users/get_permissions)**
