Create/Delete Hooks Using the Auth0 Command-Line Interface

The Auth0 CLI examples use auth0-profile as the name of the profile. This is the same profile name used when installing wt-cli, and you can obtain it from Step 2 of the instructions set located on Auth0 Management Dashboard's Webtask page.

Using the Auth0 CLI, you can create new Hooks, as well as manage or delete existing Hooks. You can also gather real-time data about your Hooks.

Create a New Hook

Rather than beginning from scratch, you can scaffold the sample code for an Auth0 hook.

auth0 scaffold -t pre-user-registration > file.js

Create the hook:

auth0 create -t pre-user-registration --name my-extension-1 -p auth0-default file.js

Provision Secrets to New Hooks

Optionally, you can add provision secrets (such as Twilio Keys or database connection strings) to your new Hook by adding --secret KEY=VALUE to your Create command. The information you attach will be encrypted, and it can only be decrypted by the Webtask server.

At this point, you have created a new, disabled Hook using the pre-user-registration extensibility point. You can repeat this process and create Hooks for any of the other extensibility points.

Delete an Existing Hook

If you need to delete an existing Hook, you can do so using the following command:

auth0 rm my-extension-1 -p auth0-default
