// Initialize the Auth0 client
var auth0 = new auth0.WebAuth({
  domain: 'YOUR_AUTH0_DOMAIN',
  clientID: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
  redirectUri: 'YOUR_REDIRECT_URI',
  responseType: 'token id_token',
  audience: 'YOUR_API_AUDIENCE',
  scope: 'openid profile email'
});

// Build the custom authorization URL
var authorizeUrl = auth0.buildAuthorizeUrl({
  responseType: 'code', // Specify the response type
  redirectUri: 'YOUR_CUSTOM_REDIRECT_URI', // Specify the custom redirect URI
  scope: 'openid profile email', // Specify the scope of the access
  state: 'YOUR_STATE_PARAMETER' // Specify any additional parameters
});

console.log(authorizeUrl); // Output the custom authorization URL

In this example, you first initialize the Auth0 client with your Auth0 domain, client ID, redirect URI, and other configuration options. Then, you can use the buildAuthorizeUrl method of the webAuth object to create a custom authorization URL with the desired response type, redirect URI, scope, state parameter, and any other parameters you need. Finally, you can output the custom authorization URL using console.log.

Make sure to replace 'YOUR_AUTH0_DOMAIN', 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID', 'YOUR_REDIRECT_URI', 'YOUR_API_AUDIENCE', 'YOUR_CUSTOM_REDIRECT_URI', and 'YOUR_STATE_PARAMETER' with your own values.
