Let’s say I’m using Ruby, and I want to update a user’s email on Auth0. To do so, I’d fire off a put request to the /api/v2/users/{id} endpoint with some headers and a body. But, because Auth0 user IDs contain pipes, the URI looks a bit like this: https://(auth0stuff)/api/v2/users/auth0|somerandom…

Hi @whatever , Welcome to the Auth0 Community! The pipe should be URL encoded. An example request URL would look like this: https://YOUR-TENANT-NAME.auth0.com/api/v2/users/auth0%7C62c5bee0c6de397b3ef7f45b Can you confirm you are sending in a valid user ID?
