How can I implement role-based access control in Vue.js with Auth0?

You can implement role-based access control in Vue.js with Auth0 by using the Auth0 Management API to assign roles to users and then checking those roles in your Vue components.

Can you provide a code example for checking user roles?

Sure! You can use the getUser method from Auth0 to retrieve user information, including roles. Here's a simple example:

const user = await auth0.getUser();
if (user && user['https://myapp.com/roles'].includes('admin')) {
    // Show admin features
}

What if I want to restrict access to certain routes based on roles?

You can use Vue Router's navigation guards to restrict access. For example:

router.beforeEach((to, from, next) => {
    const user = auth0.getUser();
    if (to.meta.requiresAuth && !user) {
        next('/login');
    } else if (to.meta.roles && !to.meta.roles.includes(user['https://myapp.com/roles'][0])) {
        next('/unauthorized');
    } else {
        next();
    }
});
