We have a custom database connection for user login, utilizing the “Use my own Database connection” option, and we haven’t enabled user imports. Is it possible to enforce the following options for our connection? I believe it’s not possible because Auth0 is not storing the user password. Need some feedback.

Hi @vigneshSivasamy

Welcome back to the Auth0 Community!

Thank you for posting your question.

> **Password History** , **Password Dictionary** , and **Personal Data** password options are available for Database connections using the Auth0 data store and for Custom Database connections that have import mode enabled. Password limitations in Social and Enterprise connections are enforced by each provider.

You need to have import mode enabled for this feature.

Thanks  
Dawid
