Mark an identity's email verified (admin)

POST/api/v1/identities/{id}/verify-email

Marks an identity's email verified directly (server-to-server admin), setting email_verified and email_verified_at without a confirmation-link round-trip — intended for users already proven in a legacy system. Idempotent: re-verifying an already-verified identity is a no-op that is not re-audited; first-time verification writes an identity.email.admin_verified row because it bypasses proof of ownership. Returns 204 No Content; returns 404 when the identity has no membership in this Environment.

Authentication

Bearer TokenAuthorization Option A

JWT access token. Never send alongside X-API-Key: a request carrying both is refused.

API KeyX-API-Key Option B

API key for management-tier access. Never send alongside an Authorization header: a request carrying both is refused.

Path Parameters

idstring Required

Responses

Marks the identity's email as verified without the user clicking a link — the migration path for users already verified in a legacy system. Idempotent. Loudly audited; to instead send a verification email, use the Direct-API resend-verification endpoint.
