I try to add email value field like this https://github.com/pj4269/amplify-vite-react-template/blob/12be5f0d77ca9f182d3f33e29f1cc15d828676f8/src/components/Profile.tsx#L100
But it still not working

const email = '';

await sendUserAttributeVerificationCode({
        userAttributeKey: 'email',
        email, <======
      } as SendUserAttributeVerificationCodeInput);

Hello @natuan62 . You should get a verification code when using the updateUserAttribute API and then you should be able to confirm it using the confirmUserAttribute API.

The sendUserAttributeVerificationCode API can be used to send a code for an attribute that hasn't being verified yet. Sometimes you would create a user with phone_number and email but only one of them might end up being verified during the registration and login process.

@israx thanks for your reply. but when I using

await updateUserAttribute({
          userAttribute: {
            attributeKey: 'email',
            value: formEmail.newEmail,
          },
        });

my email on cognito changed to new email, and email_verified set to false. but it didn't receive any email for verficiation code

Did i missing some config on amplify-js, aws-config or cognito etc ?

[israx]

is email configured to be an optional attribute ?

[natuan62]

@israx Yes email is optional and i'm using email to signIn also

Hello!

I'm going through exactly this problem. How did you solve it? My email field is optional too. Do I need to change it to mandatory only or do I need to do another step?
