User management adding permissions (Node SDK)

[rueben.tiow]

Hi @david.clare,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

I understand you have questions about using the Management API to add and remove permissions.

@david.clare

Am I correct to understand that Auth0 will store a user with a unique email address and an appended permissions for the different apps?

This is only true if you have configured a script to append these permissions programmatically to users (e.x Post Login Action script). For this scenario, I recommend reading our How do I assign Permissions to users? FAQ for more information.

@david.clare

Using the Management API via node NPM package auth:2.43 what endpoints or flow do I need to manage adding and removing permissions?

You will need to call the Management API’s Assign Permissions to a User and Remove Permissions from a User endpoints to add and remove permissions accordingly.

I hope this helps!

Please reach out if you have any additional questions.

Thanks,
Rueben
