Send/Resend User Verification Code
POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/users/{{userID}}
If the user loses or did not receive the verification code, a new verification code can be sent using the POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/users/{{userID}} operation. For the code resend operation, the application/vnd.pingidentity.user.sendVerificationCode+json custom content type is required in the request header.
Upon success, a new verification code is sent and the lifecycle.status property of the user is set to VERIFICATION_REQUIRED.
Refer also to Send Email Verification (Code).
Prerequisites
-
Refer to Users and User Operations for important overview information.

userID. Refer to Create User. Run Read User or Users to find an existing user.
