Update Application Ownership

You can use Auth0's Management API to update application ownership, which allows you to specify whether an application is registered with Auth0 as a first-party or third-party application.

Make a PATCH call to the Update a Client endpoint. Be sure to replace {yourClientId}, {yourMgmtApiAccessToken}, and {ownershipBoolean} placeholder values with your client ID, Management API Access Token, and boolean representing the application's ownership, respectively.
