Assign Members to an Organization

To assign a member to your organization, you must have already created the user in your tenant. If you cannot find a user, you can invite them instead.

To manage members directly, you can use either the Auth0 Dashboard or the Management API.

Auth0 Dashboard

To assign members via the Auth0 Dashboard:

Navigate to Auth0 Dashboard > Organizations, and select the organization for which you want to configure membership.
Select the Members view, select Add members, and select Add Users.
Enter the name(s) of the user you would like to assign as a member to the organization, and select Add user(s) to organization.

Management API

To assign members via the Management API:

Make a POST call to the Create Organization Members endpoint. Be sure to replace ORG_ID, MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN, and USER_ID placeholder values with your organization ID, Management API Access Token, and user IDs, respectively.

Find Your Auth0 Domain

If your Auth0 domain is your tenant name, your regional subdomain (unless your tenant is in the US region and was created before June 2020), plus .auth0.com. For example, if your tenant name were travel0, your Auth0 domain name would be travel0.us.auth0.com. (If your tenant were in the US and created before June 2020, then your domain name would be https://travel0.auth0.com.)

If you are using custom domains, this should be your custom domain name.

Value	Description
`ORG_ID`	ID of the organization for which you want to assign membership.
`MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN`	Access Token for the Management API with the scope `create:organization_members`.
`USER_ID`	ID of the user(s) you want to assign to the specified organization. You can send a maximum of 10 members per organization per request.

Response status codes

Possible response status codes are as follows:

Status code	Error code	Message	Cause
`204`		Members successfully added to organization.
`400`	`invalid_body`	Invalid request body. The message will vary depending on the cause.	The request payload is not valid.
`400`	`invalid_query_string`	Invalid request query string. The message will vary depending on the cause.	The query string is not valid.
`401`		Invalid token.
`401`		Invalid signature received for JSON Web Token validation.
`401`		Client is not global.
`403`	`insufficient_scope`	Insufficient scope; expected any of: `create:organization_members`.	Tried to read/write a field that is not allowed with provided bearer token scopes.
`429`		Too many requests. Check the X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Reset headers.
