Unwarranted session removal after Management API user updates

$npx @buildinternet/releases show rel_B18yq2TGfueOohx1dJlfA

We have deprecated the invalidation of user sessions when performing database connection user update (PATCH - /api/v2/users/{id}) requests where:

  • The email or email_verified attributes are set to an unchanged value;
  • The email_verified attribute is set to a true value.

These changes allow for consistent behavior between setting an email as verified through the Management API and the built-in email verification flows provided by the service. In addition, it improves the overall end-user experience by avoiding session invalidation in situations that do not require it, such as setting either the email or email_verified attributes to unchanged values.

The dashboard will be updated with a migration toggle to opt out of the deprecated behavior ahead of its future end-of-life; we have provided additional information and timelines for enforcing this change through a dashboard and support center notification.
