This article explains the payload validation error that occurs when making calls to the Auth0 Management API regarding connection options. When performing this action, the following error is returned:

Response Code: 400 Response Body: "statusCode": 400, "error": "Bad Request" "message": "Payload validation error: 'Missing required property: scripts' on property options." "errorCode": "invalid_body".

• Auth0 Management API

The error occurs because the scripts property is missing from the options object in the request payload.

1. Go to the Get a connection endpoint.

2. Retrieve the connection details. The response resembles the following example:

{
  "id": "con_****",
  "options": {
    "scope": "",
    "scripts": {
      "fetchUserProfile": "function(accessToken, ctx, cb) {\n    const profile = {};\n    // Call OAuth2 API with the accessToken and create the profile\n    cb(null, profile);\n  }"
    },

3. Copy the scripts object from the response.

4. Go to the Update a connection endpoint.

5. Paste the scripts object inside options in the request body as shown below:

{
  "display_name": "YourDisplayName",
  "options": {
    "icon_url": "https://yourlogo.svg",
    "scripts": {
      "fetchUserProfile": "YOUR_COPIED_CODE_HERE"
    }
  }
