Auth0 CLI

auth0 agents create

Create a new agent.

To create interactively, use auth0 agents create with no flags.

To create non-interactively, supply at least the name through the flags.

Use ‘–schema’ to print the request payload schema and exit. Use ‘–data’ to supply the full JSON payload (validated against the schema before sending).

Usage 

auth0 agents create [flags]

Examples 

  auth0 agents create
  auth0 agents create --name "Support Bot"
  auth0 agents create -n "Support Bot" --client-id <client-id> --external-id bot-42 --metadata '{"team":"support"}' --json
  auth0 agents create -n "Support Bot" --metadata @metadata.json

  # Discover the payload schema
  auth0 agents create --schema

  # JSON input mode (for agents and automation)
  auth0 agents create --data '{"name":"Support Bot"}'
  auth0 agents create --data @agent.json
