Management API for Connections Does Not Return All Connection Settings

Overview

This article explains why retrieving connections with the Get Connection By ID and Get All Connections management API endpoints do not return the full details of a connection.

Applies To

  • Management API
  • Connection Settings

Cause

Auth0 deprecated using the read:connections scope to return a connection’s entire settings (See Action Required: New Management API scopes required for connection options for full details). This scope now only returns a limited set of parameters

Solution

To access the entire settings, the management API token should access additional scopes like read:connections_options, read:connection_profiles, and read:connections_keys.

If the required scope is missing on the used Machine-to-Machine (M2M) app for the management API, it can be enabled from the APIs section.
