In the “Update a connection” documentation

I found that there is a customScripts section in the BODY PARAMETERS section, where change_username and change_phone_number are present.

I believe it’s now possible to write change_username and change_phone_number as scripts for a Custom Database Connection.

Please tell me the arguments for these functions.

There is documentation for change_email.

However, there is no documentation for change_username or change_phone_number.

Hi @yasuyuki.kobayashi

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

Thank you for bringing this to our attention! While the change_username and change_phone_number scripts are not mentioned in our documentations, let me try and provide some information :

  • change_username : it should function the same way as the change_email script, as it ends with return(null, true) when successful. The script must also be added in the list of action scripts via the Management API :
"change_username": "function changeUsername(oldUsername, newUsername, callback) { console.log("ChangeUsername called")
callback(null, true);}"
  • change_phone_number : this script needs to be implemented in order to update the phone number in the external DB through the Management API, as the Auth0 Dashboard does not support it:
{
"options": {
    "customScripts": {
        "change_phone_number": "function changePhoneNumber(oldPhoneNumber, newPhoneNumber, verified, callback) { console.log(\"Update phone number called....\"); console.log (\"oldPhoneNumber:\", oldPhoneNumber); console.log (\"newPhoneNumber:\", newPhoneNumber);  console.log (\"verified:\", verified); console.log (\"callback:\", callback);   callback(null, true); \n}\n",
     // other scripts are removed for brevity
    },
    // other attributes are removed for brevity
  }
}

Useful documentation:

Hope this helped!
