Try it: AI Assistant for Auth0 Actions
Today we’re releasing a new, free tool we hope will make it faster and easier to author Auth0 Actions and their unit tests. We call it the AI Assistant for Auth0 Actions.
Give it a prompt and our AI assistant will suggest the code to solve your problem. The assistant has knowledge of the Auth0 API for each flow and best practices. As we believe in unit testing your Actions, it will includes a test suite compatible with our open source Auth0 Actions Testing Library.
Writing an Action typically starts with the developer reading the Auth0 docs. They will either copy an example on the docs and try to adapt it to meet their needs, or attempt to write it from scratch. To test it, they may try trial-and-error with the “Test” button, or deploy the Action to test it end-to-end.
Most Actions are not complicated to write, but understanding the the API takes time. There are plenty of good examples in Auth0’s own documentation, but the event payloads and APIs for each Auth0 Flow are extensive. The Login Flow, for example, offers over 40 distinct API methods and the event payload for even a simple tenant will have around 80 different nested properties.
AI offers a shortcut to figuring out which of these methods and properties to focus on. It’s faster than scanning through StackOverflow answers or sifting through dozens of pages of documentation. With the AI Assistant, you can quickly get a viable answer to your problem using the correct API calls. You’ll also get a test suite you can use to verify the behaviour of your action, leading to a robust, well-tested solution.
As with all generative AI, the answers aren’t perfect, but we think you’ll find the quality of answers is surprisingly good, usually getting you close to the right solution for common problems. We’re continuing to refine the output.
Try it out today. We’d love to know your thoughts.
