Microservice Architecture

Hi!

I have a collection of APIs that follows a micro-service architecture approach. Some of my client applications (front-end using React) needs to interact with multiple of these APIs, and i hoped i could use a single AccessToken to authenticate with them all. I am using the new RBAC module in Auth0 to give users roles and permissions.

I have followed the steps in this article, but i cant figure out how it all ties together : Configure Logical API for Multiple APIs.

Lets say i have two APIs, that each has their set of permissions:

API A:
read:a

API B:
read:b

I then create a new “Logical-API” using the Auth0 Dashboard, and use this APIs identifier as audience when i authenticate the client application with Auth0. But how do i tie this “Logical-API” to API A and API B?

Any help/tips on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated :blush:
