Auth0
Auth0 is a flexible, drop-in solution to add authentication and authorization services to your applications
The Auth0 Wrapper allows you to read data from your Auth0 tenant for use within your Postgres database.
Restoring a logical backup of a database with a materialized view using a foreign table can fail. For this reason, either do not use foreign tables in materialized views or use them in databases with physical backups enabled.
Preparation
Before you can query Auth0, you need to enable the Wrappers extension and store your credentials in Postgres.
Enable Wrappers
Make sure the wrappers extension is installed on your database:
_10create extension if not exists wrappers with schema extensions;
Enable the Auth0 Wrapper
Enable the auth0_wrapper FDW:
_10create foreign data wrapper auth0_wrapper_10 handler auth0_fdw_handler_10 validator auth0_fdw_validator;
Store your credentials (optional)
By default, Postgres stores FDW credentials inside pg_catalog.pg_foreign_server in plain text. Anyone with access to this table will be able to view these credentials. Wrappers is designed to work with Vault, which provides an additional level of security for storing credentials. We recommend using Vault to store your credentials.
_10-- Save your Auth0 API key in Vault and retrieve the `key_id`_10insert into vault.secrets (name, secret)_10values (_10 'auth0',_10 '<Auth0 API Key or PAT>' -- Auth0 API key or Personal Access Token (PAT)_10)_10returning key_id;
Connecting to Auth0
We need to provide Postgres with the credentials to connect to Airtable, and any additional options. We can do this using the create server command:
_10create server auth0_server_10 foreign data wrapper auth0_wrapper_10 options (_10 api_key_id '<key_ID>' -- The Key ID from above._10 );
Create a schema
We recommend creating a schema to hold all the foreign tables:
_10create schema if not exists auth0;
Entities
The Auth0 Wrapper supports data reads from Auth0 API.
Users
The Auth0 Wrapper supports data reads from Auth0's Management API List users endpoint endpoint (read only).
Operations
| Object | Select | Insert | Update | Delete | Truncate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Users | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
Usage
_10create foreign table auth0.my_foreign_table (_10 name text_10 -- other fields_10)_10server auth0_server_10options (_10 object 'users'_10);
Notes
- Currently only supports the
usersobject
Query Pushdown Support
This FDW doesn't support query pushdown.
Examples
Basic Auth0 Users Query
This example demonstrates querying Auth0 users data.
_10create foreign table auth0.auth0_table (_10 created_at text,_10 email text,_10 email_verified bool,_10 identities jsonb_10)_10 server auth0_server_10 options (_10 object 'users'_10 );
You can now fetch your Auth0 data from within your Postgres database:
_10select * from auth0.auth0_table;
