Delete Roles
You can delete a role using the Auth0 Dashboard or the Management API. Roles are used with the API Authorization Core feature set.
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.
Dashboard
Go to Dashboard > User Management > Roles and click the name of the role to view.
Click Remove this Role, and confirm.
Management API
Make a DELETE
call to the Delete Role endpoint. Be sure to replace ROLE_ID
and MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN
placeholder values with your role ID and Management API access token, respectively.
curl --request DELETE \
--url 'https://{yourDomain}/api/v2/roles/ROLE_ID' \
--header 'authorization: Bearer MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN'
