Social Integrations
OAuth2
Build a custom social connection for any OAuth2 compliant authorization server.
The custom OAuth2 connection allows you to create integrations with any OAuth2 compliant service that isn’t available as a built-in integration type.
Overview
If a specific identity provider or service isn’t available out of the box, Auth0 allows you to create custom social connections. This is particularly useful for integrating with proprietary systems, regional services, or specialized OAuth2 providers. To learn more and configure a custom OAuth2 connection with Auth0, see our Connect Apps to Generic OAuth2 Authorization Servers documentation.Configure Token Vault
After creating the connection, at the bottom of the connection settings in the Advanced section enable the Enable Token Vault toggle. This will allow your connection to retrieve and store access tokens for third-party APIs.Account linking
If you want to use more than one connection for a user, you can link their accounts. This allows the user to log in with any of their linked accounts and have a single user profile in your application. This allows calling APIs from different providers with a single user profile.

- Auth0’s Token Vault organizes the access and refresh tokens of federated connections in secure tokensets. Applications can then access the Token Vault to retrieve access tokens to call third-party APIs. To learn more, read Configure Token Vault.
