Enable/Disable Hooks

You can enable or disable hooks using the Dashboard or Management API.

Use the Dashboard

  1. Go to Auth0 Dashboard > Auth Pipeline > Hooks and locate the extensibility point for which you want to enable or disable a Hook.

  2. Click on the dropdown box located immediately under the extensibility point's name and description.

    Auth0 Hook selection
  3. Select the Hook you want to enable, and confirm. If you want to disable all Hooks, select None.

A green dot will appear next to the name of any enabled Hooks.

Use the Management API

Make a PATCH call to the Update a Hook endpoint. Be sure to replace HOOK_ID and MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN placeholder values with your Hook ID and Management API Access Token, respectively.


curl --request PATCH \
  --url 'https://{yourDomain}/api/v2/hooks/HOOK_ID' \
  --header 'authorization: Bearer MGMT_API_ACCESS_TOKEN' \
  --header 'cache-control: no-cache' \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --data '{ "enabled": "true" }'
