Manage Role-Based Access Control Roles

The Authorization Core feature set and Authorization Extension are completely separate features. To manage groups, roles, or permissions, you need to use the feature they were originally created in.

For role-based access control (RBAC) to work properly, you must enable it for your API using either the Dashboard or the Management API. The Authorization Core functionality is different from the Authorization Extension. For a comparison, read Authorization Core vs. Authorization Extension.

We provide various functions to help you manage your roles, which you can access through either the Auth0 Dashboard or the Auth0 Management API:

• Create roles
• Edit role definitions
• Add permissions to roles
• Remove permissions from roles
• View role permissions
• View role users
• Delete roles
