Hi @Spacefight,

Welcome to Auth0 Community! Here are the answers to your questions!

  1. Why is the address set to pending?

Address is set to pending because the user hasn’t verified their email address.

  1. Why is the email verification not sent out?

The verification email won’t be sent unless you specify verify_email:true in your PATCH request sent to /api/v2/users/{id} endpoint. (Read more in the Management API Doc’s Body Schema section: Auth0 Management API v2)

  1. Why is the “Name” field not updated here as well as while user creation?

When you create a user using the Management API by just specifying the email, password, and connection; Auth0 will automatically set the email address as the user’s Name. After that, if you want to change the Name, you have to do it manually.

Hope this helps!
