## TL;DR

Set "moduleResolution": "node16" in tsconfig.json so TypeScript respects the package's exports field; the old node10 resolution is what surfaces the duplicates, and the maintainers closed this as by-design for node10.

2. What works:
If the auth0 v4 package's TypeScript definitions confuse your IDE by exposing duplicate module-specific paths (like auth0/dist/cjs/management), do not import from those paths. Set `"moduleResolution": "node16"` in tsconfig.json so TypeScript respects the package's exports field; the old node10 resolution is what surfaces the duplicates, and the maintainers closed this as by-design for node10. Related: ApiResponse not being exposed was a real bug, fixed in PR #954.
