Hi 5ca6434febe4, can you post the JSON you are sending to the Crowd API endpoint?

Best regards

 -Dcrowd.email.change.by.external.apps=true  not worked  for us and we are using crowd Version: 5.3.1

Crowd version: 5.3.1, I am trying to update user details except email but still getting below error, what kind of design is this??
 

{     "reason": "APPLICATION_PERMISSION_DENIED",      
      "message": "External applications are not allowed to change user emails"
 }

For me  -Dcrowd.email.change.by.external.apps=true has not worked (crowd Version: 5.0.1)

The same error occurs when trying to activate/deactivate user, e.g. using the sample curl as described here https://confluence.atlassian.com/crowdkb/how-to-deactivate-activate-a-user-through-api-814197032.html gives error 403 {"reason":"APPLICATION_PERMISSION_DENIED","message":"External applications are not allowed to change user emails"}

Why it gives error on changing email, if the parameters have only name and active:
 
'{"name":"testuser", "active":"false"}'?

That is blocker for my API scripts for bulk-update users (crowd Version: 5.0.1)

I confirm that setting up JVM parameter -Dcrowd.email.change.by.external.apps=true is a working solution (Crowd DC 5.1.2).

This is a blocker for enabling Cloud Migrations, where we need to bulk/programmatically change the email addresses for users.
