Check Dependency Versions Within Auth0 Database Scripts
May 4, 2026
Overview
Oftentimes, admins would like to confirm which dependency version they are using within custom database scripts. Unlike within Extensability (such as a postLogin Action), there is no visible way to check this within the Auth0 Dashboard.
Applies To
- Custom Database
- Custom Database Scripts
- Dependency Version
- Real Time Action Logs
- Auth0
Solution
Because there is no current method of viewing these details, enable the Real Time Action Logs and add a console.log to output the dependency version as such:
function login(email, password, callback) {
const bcrypt = require('bcrypt');
const MongoClient = require('mongodb');
const client = new MongoClient('...');
const axios = require('axios');
console.log("axios: " + axios.VERSION);
client.connect(function (err) {
if (err) return callback(err);
const db = client.db('auth0');
const users = db.collection('users');
users.findOne({ email: email }, function (err, user) {
if (err || !user) {
client.close();
return callback(err || new WrongUsernameOrPasswordError(email));
}
bcrypt.compare(password, user.password, function (err, isValid) {
client.close();
if (err || !isValid) return callback(err || new WrongUsernameOrPasswordError(email));
return callback(null, {
user_id: user._id.toString(),
nickname: user.nickname,
email: user.email
});
});
});
});
}
