Android

The Auth0 Authentication API and User's Management API are available for Android in the auth0.android library. Check https://github.com/auth0/auth0.android for more information.

Auth API

The implementation is based on the Authentication API Docs.

Create an AuthAPI instance by providing the Application details from the dashboard. Read the recommendations for keeping the resources usage low.

AuthAPI auth = new AuthAPI("{YOUR_DOMAIN}", "{YOUR_CLIENT_ID}", "{YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET}");

Authorize - /authorize

Creates an AuthorizeUrlBuilder to authenticate the user with an OAuth provider. The redirectUri must be white-listed in the "Allowed Callback URLs" section of the Applications Settings. Parameters can be added to the final URL by using the builder methods. When ready, call build() and obtain the URL.

AuthorizeUrlBuilder authorizeUrl(String redirectUri)

Example:

String url = auth.authorizeUrl("https://me.auth0.com/callback")
    .withConnection("facebook")
    .withAudience("https://api.me.auth0.com/users")
    .withScope("openid contacts")
    .withState("state123")
    .build();

Logout - /v2/logout

Creates a LogoutUrlBuilder to log out the user. The returnToUrl must be white-listed in the "Allowed Logout URLs" section of the Dashboard, depending on the value of setClientId this configuration should be set in the Application or in the Tenant Settings. Parameters can be added to the final URL by using the builder methods. When ready, call build() and obtain the URL.

LogoutUrlBuilder logoutUrl(String returnToUrl, boolean setClientId)

Example:

String url = auth.logoutUrl("https://me.auth0.com/home", true)
    .useFederated(true)
    .build();

UserInfo - /userinfo

Creates a request to get the user information associated to a given access token. This will only work if the token has been granted the openid scope.

Request<UserInfo> userInfo(String accessToken)

Example:

Request<UserInfo> request = auth.userInfo("nisd1h9dk.....s1doWJOsaf");
try {
    UserInfo info = request.execute();
    // info.getValues();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Reset Password - /dbconnections/change_password

Creates a request to reset the user's password. This will only work for db connections.

Request resetPassword(String email, String connection)

Example:

Request request = auth.resetPassword("user@domain.com", "Username-Password-Authentication");
try {
    request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Sign Up - /dbconnections/signup

Creates a request to create a user. Up to 10 additional Sign Up fields can be added to the request. This will only work for db connections.

SignUpRequest signUp(String email, String username, String password, String connection)

SignUpRequest signUp(String email, String password, String connection)

Example:

Map<String, String> fields = new HashMap<>();
fields.put("age", "25");
fields.put("city", "Buenos Aires");
SignUpRequest request = auth.signUp("user@domain.com", "username", "password123", "Username-Password-Authentication")
    .setCustomFields(fields);
try {
    CreatedUser user = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Exchange the Authorization Code - /oauth/token

Creates a request to exchange the code previously obtained by calling the /authorize endpoint. The redirect URI must be the one sent in the /authorize call.

AuthRequest exchangeCode(String code, String redirectUri)

Example:

AuthRequest request = auth.exchangeCode("asdfgh", "https://me.auth0.com/callback")
    .setAudience("https://api.me.auth0.com/users")
    .setScope("openid contacts");
try {
    TokenHolder holder = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Log In with Password - /oauth/token

Creates a request to log in the user with username and password. The connection used is the one defined as "Default Directory" in the account settings.

AuthRequest login(String emailOrUsername, String password)

Example:

AuthRequest request = auth.login("me@domain.com", "password123")
    .setAudience("https://api.me.auth0.com/users")
    .setScope("openid contacts");
try {
    TokenHolder holder = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Log In with Password Realm - /oauth/token

Creates a request to log in the user with username and password using the Password Realm.

AuthRequest login(String emailOrUsername, String password, String realm)

Example:

AuthRequest request = auth.login("me@domain.com", "password123", "Username-Password-Authentication")
    .setAudience("https://api.me.auth0.com/users")
    .setScope("openid contacts");
try {
    TokenHolder holder = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Request Token for Audience - /oauth/token

Creates a request to get a Token for the given Audience.

AuthRequest requestToken(String audience)

Example:

AuthRequest request = auth.requestToken("https://api.me.auth0.com/users")
    .setScope("openid contacts");
try {
    TokenHolder holder = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Revoke Refresh Token

Creates a request to revoke an existing Refresh Token.

Request<Void> revokeToken(String refreshToken)

Example:

Request<Void> request = auth.revokeToken("nisd1h9dks1doWJOsaf");
try {
    request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Renew Authentication

Creates a request to renew the authentication and get fresh new credentials using a valid Refresh Token.

AuthRequest renewAuth(String refreshToken)

Example:

AuthRequest request = auth.renewAuth("nisd1h9dks1doWJOsaf");
try {
    TokenHolder holder = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Management API

The implementation is based on the Management API Docs.

Create a ManagementAPI instance by providing the domain from the Application dashboard and a valid API Token. Read the recommendations for keeping the resources usage low.

ManagementAPI mgmt = new ManagementAPI("{YOUR_DOMAIN}", "{YOUR_API_TOKEN}");

You can use the Authentication API to obtain a token for a previously authorized Application:

AuthAPI authAPI = new AuthAPI("{YOUR_DOMAIN}", "{YOUR_CLIENT_ID}", "{YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET}");
AuthRequest authRequest = authAPI.requestToken("https://{YOUR_DOMAIN}/api/v2/");
TokenHolder holder = authRequest.execute();
ManagementAPI mgmt = new ManagementAPI("{YOUR_DOMAIN}", holder.getAccessToken());

(Note that the snippet above should have error handling, and ideally cache the obtained token until it expires instead of requesting one access token for each Management API v2 invocation).

An expired token for an existing ManagementAPI instance can be replaced by calling the setApiToken method with the new token.

Click here for more information on how to obtain API Tokens.

The Management API is divided into different entities. Each of them have the list, create, update, delete and update methods plus a few more if corresponds. The calls are authenticated using the API Token given in the ManagementAPI instance creation and must contain the scope required by each entity. See the javadoc for details on which scope is expected for each call.

Users

List by Email

Creates a request to list the Users by Email. This is the preferred and fastest way to query Users by Email, and should be used instead of calling the generic list method with an email query. An API Token with scope read:users is needed. If you want the identities.access_token property to be included, you will also need the scope read:user_idp_tokens. You can pass an optional Filter to narrow the results in the response.

Request<List<User>> listByEmail(String email, UserFilter filter)

Example:

FieldsFilter filter = new FieldsFilter();
//...
Request<List<User>> request = mgmt.users().listByEmail("johndoe@auth0.com", filter);
try {
    List<User> response = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

List

Creates a request to list the Users. An API Token with scope read:users is needed. If you want the identities.access_token property to be included, you will also need the scope read:user_idp_tokens. You can pass an optional Filter to narrow the results in the response.

Request<UsersPage> list(UserFilter filter)

Example:

UserFilter filter = new UserFilter()
    .withPage(1, 20);
//...
Request<UsersPage> request = mgmt.users().list(filter);
try {
    UsersPage response = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Get

Creates a request to get a User. An API Token with scope read:users is needed. If you want the identities.access_token property to be included, you will also need the scope read:user_idp_tokens. You can pass an optional Filter to specify the fields you want to include or exclude from the response.

Request<User> get(String userId, UserFilter filter)

Example:

UserFilter filter = new UserFilter();
//...
Request<User> request = mgmt.users().get("auth0|123", filter);

    User response = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Delete

Creates a request to delete a User. An API Token with scope delete:users is needed.

Request delete(String userId)

Example:

Request<User> update(String userId, User user)

Example:

User data = new User();
//...
Request request = mgmt.users().update("auth0|123", data);
try {
    User response = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

Get Guardian Enrollments

Creates a request to list the User's Guardian Enrollments. An API Token with scope read:users is needed.

Request<List<Enrollment>> getEnrollments(String userId)

Example:

Request<List<Enrollment>> request = mgmt.users().getEnrollments("auth0|123");
try {
    List<Enrollment> response = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {

    List<Identities> response = request.execute();
} catch (APIException exception) {
    // api error
} catch (Auth0Exception exception) {
    // request error
}

API Clients Recommendations

The SDK implements a custom networking stack on top of the OkHttp library. The official recommendation from Square is to re-use as much as possible these clients. However, it's not possible to pass an existing OkHttpClient instance to our AuthAPI and ManagementAPI clients.

Whenever you instantiate a client, a new OkHttpClient instance is created internally to handle the network requests. This instance is not directly exposed for customization. In order to reduce resource consumption, make use of the singleton pattern to keep a single instance of this SDK's API client during the lifecycle of your application.

For the particular case of the ManagementAPI client, if the token you've originally set has expired or you require to change its scopes, you can update the client's token with the setApiToken(String) method.

Error Handling

The API Clients throw Auth0Exception when an unexpected error happens on a request execution, i.e. Connectivity or Timeout error.

If you need to handle different error scenarios you need to catch first APIException, which provides methods to get a clue of what went wrong.

The APIExplorer includes a list of response messages for each endpoint. You can get a clue of what went wrong by asking the Http status code: exception.getStatusCode(). i.e. a status_code=403 would mean that the token has an insufficient scope.

An error code will be included to categorize the type of error, you can get it by calling exception.getError(). If you want to see a user friendly description of what happened and why the request is failing check the exception.getDescription(). Finally, if the error response includes additional properties they can be obtained by calling exception.getValue("{THE_KEY}").

Example exception data
{
  statusCode: 400,
  description: "Query validation error: 'String 'users' does not match pattern. Must be a comma separated list of the following values: name,strategy,options,enabled_clients,id,provisioning_ticket_url' on property fields (A comma separated list of fields to include or exclude (depending on include_fields) from the result, empty to retrieve all fields).",
  error: "invalid_query_string"
}

ID Token Validation

This library also provides the ability to validate an OIDC-compliant ID Token, according to the OIDC Specification.

Verifying an ID Token signed with the RS256 signing algorithm

To verify an ID Token that is signed using the RS256 signing algorithm, you will need to provide an implementation of PublicKeyProvider that will return the public key used to verify the token's signature. The example below demonstrates how to use the JwkProvider from the jwks-rsa-java library:

JwkProvider provider = new JwkProviderBuilder("https://your-domain.auth0.com").build();
SignatureVerifier sigVerifier = SignatureVerifier.forRS256(new PublicKeyProvider() {
    @Override
    public RSAPublicKey getPublicKeyById(String keyId) throws PublicKeyProviderException {
       try {
            return (RSAPublicKey) provider.get(keyId).getPublicKey();
        } catch (JwkException jwke) {
            throw new PublicKeyProviderException("Error obtaining public key", jwke);
        }
    }
}

IdTokenVerifier idTokenVerifier = IdTokenVerifier.init("https://your-domain.auth0.com/","your-client-id", signatureVerifier).build();

try {
    idTokenVerifier.verify("token", "expected-nonce");
} catch(IdTokenValidationException idtve) {
    // Handle invalid token exception
}

Verifying an ID Token signed with the HS256 signing algorithm

To verify an ID Token that is signed using the HS256 signing algorithm:

SignatureVerifier signatureVerifier = SignatureVerifier.forHS256("your-client-secret");
IdTokenVerifier idTokenVerifier = IdTokenVerifier.init("https://your-domain.auth0.com/","your-client-id", signatureVerifier).build();

try {
    idTokenVerifier.verify("token", "expected-nonce");
} catch(IdTokenValidationException idtve) {
    // Handle invalid token exception
}

Additional configuration options

By default, time-based claims such as the token expiration (exp claim) will allow for a leeway of 60 seconds. You can customize the leeway by using the withLeeway when building the IdTokenVerifier:

IdTokenVerifier idTokenVerifier = IdTokenVerifier.init("https://your-domain.auth0.com/","your-client-id", signatureVerifier)
        .withLeeway(120) // two minutes
        .build();

When verifying the token, the following methods are available to support different scenarios:

// Verify the token's signature and claims, excluding the nonce and auth_time claims
idTokenVerifier.verify("token");

// Verify the token's signature and claims, including the nonce.
// The expected nonce should be the nonce sent on the authorization request.
idTokenVerifier.verify("token", "expected-nonce");

// Verify the token's signature and claims, including the nonce and the auth_time claim.
// The maxAuthenticationAge parameter specifies the maximum amount of time since the end-user last actively authenticated,
// and it should match the max_age parameter sent on the authorization request.
idTokenVerifier.verify("token", "expected-nonce", 24 * 60 * 60); // maximum authentication age of 24 hours
