I have got a free Auth0 tenant and the corresponding application metadata is hosted at [https://dev-q0w2aecoktdbqili.us.auth0.com/.well-known/openid-configuration](https://dev-q0w2aecoktdbqili.us.auth0.com/.well-known/openid-configuration)

But I unable to find a token introspect end point in it, which can be used to validate token validity. I would like to know if there are any settings which can be enabled either at tenant or application level with which I can see the introspect end point.

Kindly help.  
Thanks.

Hi @mohitraj,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

This is covered here:

> [@Provide introspection\_endpoint for clients](https://community.auth0.com/t/provide-introspection-endpoint-for-clients/78567):
>
> I am really surprised that this fature was not implemented. Right now there is no way to integrate Role-based authorization for .NET Core with angular frontend. UI is sedning inly access\_token so we cqnnot determine roles on API side because we need to call introspect endpoint which idoes not exist!

> Hi team I want to validate access token from the gateway. Which service should I hit in Auth0 to do so? I am looking for something equivalent of introspection end point provided by okta

Hi @dan.woda

From your response I could not figure out if the introspection end point is not supported or just not available in my tenant.

Could you please help with the same.

Thanks,  
Mohit

From the second post I shared:

> We don’t have an equivalent endpoint to the `/introspect` endpoint from Okta.
