  2. Select Create Connection, then choose Tumblr.
  3. Click Continue.
  4. In General:
    1. Enter the Client ID and Client Secret from your Tumblr OAuth app.
    2. Under Attributes, select the scope(s) required for your application. These determine what permissions your application can request from Tumblr, whether for authentication (such as accessing basic profile details) or for API access (such as connecting to the provider's APIs).
    3. Add any additional scopes your application requires in the Additional Scopes field.
  5. In Advanced, Enable Token Vault. This lets the connection retrieve and securely store access tokens for third‑party APIs. Learn more in Configure Token Vault.
  6. Click Create.
  7. After creation, you are redirected to the Applications page. Select the application(s) to enable this connection for.
    Note: In a new Auth0 tenant, you can select the Default App.
  8. Once you have created your Tumblr social connection, test your connection to ensure the setup is working correctly before using it in your application.
This guide walks you through setting up the Tumblr connection in Auth0. For an end-to-end example that shows how to set up your app to call third-party APIs on the user's behalf using a connection like this, read the Call Other's APIs on User's Behalf Quickstart.

  connection: "tumblr",
  scopes: ["basic", "offline_access", ...],
  refreshToken: getAuth0RefreshToken(),
});
