Important: Reversal of Verified Email Flag Management in SAP Concur Profile via Identity 4.1 and UPS 4.0 APIs
Due to identified bugs in the recently released functionality for managing the verified email flag within SAP Concur user profiles via the Identity 4.1 and UPS 4.0 APIs, we have decided to temporarily disable this feature. Our teams are actively working on resolving this issue.
Key Details:
Feature Unavailable: The ability to update the verified email flag via the Identity 4.1 and UPS 4.0 APIs is temporarily disabled and reverted back to pre-feature release behavior.
Impact:
- POST calls attempting to set the emails.verified attribute for managing the flag will fail and return a 400 error.
- PATCH calls attempting to update the emails.verified attribute will not update the attribute and continue to process other operations.
- Existing workflows leveraging this parameter may need adjustments until the issue is resolved.
Flat File Support: Planned flat file support for this feature remains paused as we focus on addressing the bugs in the API implementation.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience as we work toward restoring this functionality. Further updates will be communicated as soon as the issue is resolved.
