Changelog Mar 4, 2022

Organization management API

Today we launched our API for organization management and began rolling it out to our early access customers.

Want to see how it works? Check out our demo repository on Github⁠.

These API endpoints are production ready - please reach out to support if you would like early access.

Please note that we do not provide UIs for this functionality yet, but hooks and javascript helpers are available. The demo repository is unstyled but filled with essential organization management features:

Custom Scopes for OAuth / Social Login

Clerk now supports custom scopes for OAuth / Social Login. Simply navigate to the "Social Login" page in your dashboard and select the Gear icon for any provider.

By default, Clerk requests the scopes necessary to retrieve any basic profile information for your user. Now, you can add any scope your application needs. For example, the "repo" scope from Github

To retrieve the access token for the third party API, you can use Clerk's backend API.

Thanks to the contributors: Agis Anastasopoulos, Mark Pitsilos

application/json support

Clerk's Backend API now supports request bodies encoded with application/json, in addition to form-encoding. This is in response to developer requests and a growing ecosystem of json tooling.

This feature is automatically enabled for all applications.
