@chilly-king-10285 how can I get identity based on email instead of identity id?

To get an identity based on email, you would typically use the email as an identifier in your identity schema. This is done by defining the email field in the traits properties of your identity schema and setting it as the identifier for the password flow. Here is an example of how you can define this in your identity schema:
Copy code
json {   "$id": "<http://mydomain.com/schemas/v2/customer.schema.json>",   "$schema": "<http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#>",   "title": "A customer (v2)",   "type": "object",   "properties": {     "traits": {       "type": "object",       "properties": {         "email": {           "title": "E-Mail",           "type": "string",           "format": "email",           "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": {             "credentials": {               "password": {                 "identifier": true               }             }           }         }       },       "required": ["email"],       "additionalProperties": false     }   } }
In this schema, the 
email
field is used as the identifier for the password flow. This means that Ory will understand that 
traits.email='[email protected]'
is the identifier for this identity. The system must get 
'[email protected]'
and a password to sign in a user. Please note that the 
format
field of the identity schema will perform validation of the given trait. In this example, the email address is validated using the [JSON Schema](https://json-schema.org/understanding-json-schema/reference/string.html#email-addresses) rule set. For more information, you can refer to the [Ory documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/customize-identity-schema#email).

@chilly-king-10285 can you give ma n example of getting identity by email in go sdk? Here is my current function:
Copy code
func (k *OryServiceImpl) GetIdentity(identityID string) (*openapiclient.Identity, error) {
	ctx := context.Background()
	identity, response, err := k.client.IdentityAPI.GetIdentity(ctx, identityID).Execute()
	if err != nil {
		return nil, fmt.Errorf("error calling ProjectAPI.CreateIdentity: %v\nFull HTTP response: %v", err, response)
	}
	return identity, nil
}

A message from kapa.ai
I'm sorry, but based on the provided knowledge sources, there is no direct method in the Ory Kratos Go SDK to get an identity by email. The 
GetIdentity
method in the SDK requires an identity ID as a parameter. The typical flow would be to authenticate the user using their email and password, which would return a session containing the user's identity. However, this does not provide a direct way to retrieve an identity using only an email. If you need to retrieve identities by email, you might need to implement a custom solution in your application, such as maintaining a mapping of emails to identity IDs in your own database. Please refer to the [Ory Kratos Go SDK documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/sdk/go) for more information.

@chilly-king-10285 can I list identities filtering based on email? using go sdk?

A message from kapa.ai
I'm sorry, but based on the provided knowledge sources, there is no direct method in the Ory Kratos Go SDK to list identities filtered by email. The 
ListIdentities
method in the SDK does not accept any parameters for filtering. Here is the method signature for `ListIdentities`:
Copy code
go func (a *AdminApiService) ListIdentities(ctx context.Context) AdminApiApiListIdentitiesRequest
As you can see, it does not accept any parameters for filtering. If you need to list identities by email, you might need to implement a custom solution in your application, such as maintaining a mapping of emails to identity IDs in your own database, and then filtering based on this. Please refer to the [Ory Kratos Go SDK documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/sdk/go) for more information.
