        Supported identity types:


        | Type             | Example |

        | ---------------- | ------- |

        | email            | `{ "type" : "email", "value" : "someone@example.com" }` |

        | twitter          | `{ "type" : "twitter", "value" : "screen_name" }` |

        | facebook         | `{ "type" : "facebook", "value" : "855769377321" }` |

        | google           | `{ "type" : "google", "value" : "example@gmail.com" }` |

        | agent_forwarding | `{ "type" : "agent_forwarding", "value" : "+1 555-123-4567" }` |

        | phone_number     | `{ "type" : "phone_number", "value" : "+1 555-123-4567" }` |


        To create an identity without sending out a verification email, include a `"skip_verify_email": true` property. The `"skip_verify_email": true` property does not apply when updating your own agent profile. A welcome or verification email will be sent regardless of this setting.

        In certain cases, a phone number associated with an identity is still visible on the user profile after the identity has been deleted via API. You can remove the phone number from the user profile by updating the `phone` attribute of the user to an empty string. See [Update User via API](/api-reference/ticketing/users/users/#update-user) for details and examples.


        Deleting identities with type `messaging` could break messaging functionality. For example, an agent may stop being able to send messages via the messaging channel.

        For security reasons, you can''t use this endpoint to update the email identity of the account owner. To verify the person''s identity, send a verification email. See [Verifying the account owner''s email address](https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408828975130) in Zendesk help.


        If [automatic mapping of users to organizations using the email domain](https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408882246298-Creating-organizations#topic_nxl_vdt_bc) is enabled and the user is not already a member of an organization, they will be automatically added to the organization associated with the email domain once the email identity is verified.
