Set Root Attributes During User Import
This guide will show you how to set root attributes for a user during import using Auth0's Management API. This allows you to minimize the number of API calls required to set root attributes when importing users. To see which attributes you can import, visit Normalized User Profile Structure.
Make a POST
call to the Create Job to Import Users endpoint. Be sure to replace MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN
, CONNECTION_ID
, and JSON_USER_FILE_PATH
placeholder values with your Management API Access Token, connection ID, and users filename, respectively.
curl --request POST \
--url 'https://{yourDomain}/api/v2/jobs/usersimports' \
--header 'authorization: Bearer MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN' \
--header 'content-type: multipart/form-data ' \
--data '{ "connection_id": "CONNECTION_ID", "users": "JSON_USER_FILE_PATH" }'
