You can change your application's grant types using the <Tooltip tip="Auth0 Dashboard: Auth0's main product to configure your services." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=Auth0+Dashboard">Auth0 Dashboard</Tooltip> or the <Tooltip tip="Auth0 Dashboard: Auth0's main product to configure your services." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=Management+API">Management API</Tooltip>.

## Use the Dashboard

1. Go to [Dashboard > Applications > Applications](https://manage.auth0.com/#/applications) and select the name of the application to view.

   <Frame>
     <img src="https://mintcdn.com/docs-staging-actions-triggers-prototype/1PH2qC0V_inS4tw1/docs/images/cdy7uua7fh8z/1ecNwGgFQZxdP57p0tp3jT/cd608fcfae22e195b604e2707e5a848d/App_List_-_EN.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=1PH2qC0V_inS4tw1&q=85&s=b0731a6faa2ca6207dc117a684714abf" alt="Dashboard Applications List" width="1102" height="723" data-path="docs/images/cdy7uua7fh8z/1ecNwGgFQZxdP57p0tp3jT/cd608fcfae22e195b604e2707e5a848d/App_List_-_EN.png" />
   </Frame>
2. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and select **Show Advanced Settings**.
3. Select **Grant Types**, and enable or disable the appropriate grants for the application. When finished, select **Save Changes**. The device code grant type is only available for native apps.

## Use the Management API

Make a `PATCH` call to the [`/Clients/patch_clients_by_id`](https://auth0.com/docs/api/management/v2#!/Clients/patch_clients_by_id) endpoint. Be sure to replace `{yourClientId}`, `{yourManagementApiAccessToken}`, and `{grantType}` placeholder values with your <Tooltip tip="Client ID: Identification value given to your registered resource from Auth0." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=client+ID">client ID</Tooltip>, Management API <Tooltip tip="Client ID: Identification value given to your registered resource from Auth0." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=access+token">access token</Tooltip>, and desired grant type, respectively.

## Troubleshoot

Attempting to use a flow with an application lacking the appropriate `grant_types` for that flow (or with the field empty) will result in the following error:
``Grant type `grant_type` not allowed for the client.``
