To change the email of a user using the admin API, you can use the

updateIdentity

method. Here is an example of how to do it:

javascript const identity = await ory      .identity.updateIdentity({        id: identity.id,        updateIdentityBody: {          schema_id: identity.schema_id,          traits: { email: "<mailto:newemail@example.com|newemail@example.com>", ...identity.traits },          state: identity.state,        }       })       .then(({ data }) => data)

In this example, replace

"<mailto:newemail@example.com|newemail@example.com>"

with the new email you want to set for the user. The

identity.id

is the ID of the user you want to update. The

identity.schema_id

and

identity.state

are the current schema ID and state of the user, respectively. The

...identity.traits

is used to keep the other traits of the user unchanged. Please note that this is a JavaScript example using the Ory SDK. If you are using another language or making direct HTTP requests, you will need to adjust the code accordingly.
