Update User Email

Hello, For v1 there is an API : PUT: https://$CUSTOM-DOMAIN/management/v1/users/:userId/email https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/resources/mgmt/management-service-update-human-email This allows you to verify the email address without passing in the code, and also allows you to pass in the same email address. Although this is deprecated. In my scenario , the user receives an Organization invite link and once he accepts the invite I would like the user's email to be verified instead of triggering another email with email verification code , since the invite email was accepted which by default should make sense to have the email verified. For v2... POST: https://$CUSTOM-DOMAIN/v2/users/:userId/email https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/resources/user_service_v2/user-service-set-email With respect to my use case, if I just want to make the user email verfieid this endpoint does not let me do that as it expects the email to be updated. For example , if I pass in the same email and isVerified: true, it throws error:

{
    "code": 9,
    "message": "Email not changed (COMMAND-Uch5e)",
    "details": [
        {
            "@type": "type.googleapis.com/zitadel.v1.ErrorDetail",
            "id": "COMMAND-Uch5e",
            "message": "Email not changed"
        }
    ]
}

{
    "code": 9,
    "message": "Email not changed (COMMAND-Uch5e)",
    "details": [
        {
            "@type": "type.googleapis.com/zitadel.v1.ErrorDetail",
            "id": "COMMAND-Uch5e",
            "message": "Email not changed"
        }
    ]
}

Is there a way to verify the user email address without using the verification code?

ZITADEL Docs

Change the email address of a user. If the state is set to not verified, the user will get a verification email.

when you create a user in the v2 api, the user should get a verificaiton email and be able to verify the user itself. is that not a possiblity you can use?

@fabienne , no the use case is bit different here. We are sending the user an invite to be part of the organization along with the password reset code, which when he accepts we let him set the password and signin. So currently we need to depend on two emails, first for the user invitation and second for the email verification. Also our use case says that since the user already accepted the invite triggered over his email and setup his password , that means he is the owner of the email and should not need to verify the email seperately with v1, I can acheive this by just setting the

isEmailVerified

isEmailVerified

to true although the email can be the same as existing one but with v2, it required the email to be a different one from the existing one Can you suggest a possibility / workaround

if this invite user API allows to reset password and also verifies the user then this can be a possible option. But for now is there a way with v2 to verify the user email without depending on the verification code? We are okay to use the admin token @fabienne

Did you do the set user email with an administrator? if so then i would say that there is no possiblity at the moment

@fabienne , I created a new user using /v2/users/human using a Iam Owner user token Do you mean there is no possible way in v2 to mark the user as verified without using verification code?

fabienne•13mo ago
