Phoenix Code Samples: API Security in Action

What is Phoenix?

Phoenix is a web framework for building rich, interactive web applications quickly, including web APIs. Phoenix helps developers monitor their applications with built-in instrumentation and a live dashboard that gives them insight into its ability to handle millions of connections alongside Elixir's tooling for building robust systems. When it comes to API authorization, you can integrate the Auth0 by Okta Identity Platform with Phoenix to deliver a balance between security, privacy, and convenience to your users.

Auth0 handles billions of login transactions each month. That's only possible because Auth0 is committed to solving complex identity problems by empowering developers with tools that meet their unique security needs and requirements. Please let us show you how Auth0 makes identity and security work for you by exploring the Phoenix code samples below.
