Angular App - Adding Connection Parameter to Authorize Request

Last Updated: Sep 10, 2025

Overview

How can a connection parameter be added to the authorize request made with the auth0-angular SDK?

Solution

The release of V2 of auth0-angular came with the introduction of authorizationParams, which is a more structured approach to providing parameters - including the connection parameter as well as any other custom parameters - to Auth0.

Here is an example of adding the connection parameter by specifying it in authorizationParams with loginWithRedirect

this.auth.loginWithRedirect({
  authorizationParams: {
    connection: 'connection_name'
  }
});
