Hello @Xepobopa welcome to the community!

A Management API Access Token () obtained by the SPA is [limited](https://auth0.com/docs/secure/tokens/access-tokens/get-management-api-tokens-for-single-page-applications#available-scopes-and-endpoints) in the scopes it can have - Instead, you’ll need to utilize a backend of sorts to get and use a properly scoped access token. The following article outlines this flow:

Alternatively (and easiest route), you can add a user’s roles as a claim to an Access Token and get them that way:

Hope this helps!
