To create a new identity with a phone number as the identifier using an admin role, you can use the Ory Identities API. Here's how you can do it: 1. First, ensure that your identity schema supports using a phone number as an identifier. You can customize your identity schema to include a phone number field and mark it as an identifier. Here's an example of how to define such a schema:

json {   "$id": "<https://example.com/registration.schema.json>",   "$schema": "<http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#>",   "title": "Person",   "type": "object",   "properties": {     "traits": {       "type": "object",       "properties": {         "phone": {           "type": "string",           "format": "tel",           "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": {             "credentials": {               "password": {                 "identifier": true               }             }           }         }       }     }   } }

This schema defines a phone number field and marks it as an identifier for password credentials [Customize identity schemas](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/customize-identity-schema#phone-number-and-password). 2. Once your schema is set up, you can use the admin API to create a new identity. The endpoint for creating an identity is:

POST /admin/identities

[Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api) 3. To create the identity, you need to send a POST request to this endpoint with the following JSON body:

json {   "schema_id": "your_schema_id",   "traits": {     "phone": "+1234567890"   },   "credentials": {     "password": {       "config": {         "password": "user_password"       }     }   } }

Replace

your_schema_id

with the ID of your custom schema,

+1234567890

with the actual phone number, and

user_password

with the desired password. 4. Make sure you're using an SDK or API client with admin credentials to make this request. The exact method will depend on the programming language and SDK you're using. For example, in Go, it might look like this:

go identity, res, err := client.   IdentityApi.CreateIdentity(oryAuthedContext).CreateIdentityBody(ory.CreateIdentityBody{     SchemaId: "your_schema_id",     Traits: map[string]interface{}{       "phone": "+1234567890",     },     Credentials: &ory.IdentityWithCredentials{       Password: &ory.IdentityWithCredentialsPassword{         Config: &ory.IdentityWithCredentialsPasswordConfig{           Password: "user_password",         },       },     },   }).Execute()

[SDK V1 upgrade guide](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/upgrade/sdk-v1#identity-management) Remember to handle any errors and check the response to ensure the identity was created successfully. By following these steps, you can create a new identity with a phone number as the identifier using an admin role. Always ensure you're using the latest version of the Ory SDK and API, as the exact method names and parameters may change in future updates.

I apologize, but the knowledge sources provided don't contain specific information about using a Python client to create an identity with a phone number as the identifier. The available documentation primarily focuses on Go and JavaScript examples. However, I can provide you with a general approach based on the API information we have: 1. First, you'll need to install the Ory Python SDK. You can typically do this using pip:

pip install ory-client

2. Then, you'll need to initialize the client with your Ory Network project's API key. The exact method may vary, but it might look something like this:

python import ory_client  configuration = ory_client.Configuration(     access_token = 'YOUR_API_KEY' )  client = ory_client.ApiClient(configuration) api_instance = ory_client.IdentityApi(client)

3. To create an identity, you'll likely use a method similar to

create_identity

. Based on the [Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api), the request body should look like this:

python create_identity_body = {     "schema_id": "your_schema_id",     "traits": {         "phone": "+1234567890"     },     "credentials": {         "password": {             "config": {                 "password": "user_password"             }         }     } }  try:     api_response = api_instance.create_identity(create_identity_body)     print(api_response) except ory_client.ApiException as e:     print("Exception when calling IdentityApi->create_identity: %s\n" % e)

Please note that this is a general approach based on typical SDK patterns and the API documentation. The exact method names and parameters may differ in the actual Ory Python SDK. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend checking the official Ory Python SDK documentation or reaching out to Ory's support for specific Python examples. The [SDK V1 upgrade guide](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/upgrade/sdk-v1#identity-management) might also be helpful, although it doesn't specifically mention Python.

I apologize, but the knowledge sources provided don't contain specific information about registering and logging in as a new admin user in Ory. The documentation primarily focuses on regular user registration and login processes, not admin-specific ones. However, I can provide some general information based on the available sources: 1. Registration: Ory Identities typically uses self-service flows for user registration. As described in the [Self-service flows documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service), you would normally use the registration flow to create a new account. However, this process doesn't distinguish between regular users and admin users. 2. Login: The login process is also handled through self-service flows, as detailed in the [Login flow documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/user-login). 3. Admin privileges: The concept of an "admin" user is not explicitly mentioned in the provided knowledge sources. In many systems, admin privileges are typically assigned to a user after their account has been created, rather than during the registration process. To create an admin user or assign admin privileges, you would likely need to: 1. Register a new user using the standard registration flow. 2. Use the Ory Identities API to update the user's permissions or role after creation. However, the exact process for this is not detailed in the provided knowledge sources. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on creating admin users or assigning admin roles, I recommend consulting the official Ory documentation or contacting Ory support directly. They would be able to provide you with the specific steps and API calls needed to create and manage admin users in your Ory Identities setup.

Based on the knowledge sources provided, there are a couple of ways to add a new admin identity when there are no current admin identities. Here's what we can do: 1. Create an identity using the Admin API: You can use the

/admin/identities

endpoint to create a new identity. This method allows you to create an identity with specific traits, including any custom fields you might use to designate an admin role. Here's how you can do it:

bash curl --request POST -sL \   --header "Authorization: Bearer {ORY_API_KEY}" \   --header "Content-Type: application/json" \   --data '{   "schema_id": "<preset://email>",   "traits": {      "email": "<mailto:admin@example.com|admin@example.com>"     }   }' https://{project-slug}.<http://projects.oryapis.com/admin/identities|projects.oryapis.com/admin/identities>

[Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api) This creates a basic identity. You would need to ensure your schema includes a field to designate admin status, and include that in the traits. 2. Create an identity and set up credentials: You can create an identity and set up credentials in one step. This is useful if you want to create an admin user who can immediately log in:

json {   "schema_id": "your_schema_id",   "traits": {     "email": "<mailto:admin@example.com|admin@example.com>"   },   "credentials": {     "password": {       "config": {         "password": "admin_password"       }     }   } }

[Create identities](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/create-users-identities) 3. Invite a user and designate them as admin: You can use the invitation process to create a new user account and then designate it as an admin. This process involves: a. Creating a basic user account b. Triggering account recovery c. Sending the recovery link to the user's email [Invite users](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/invite-users) After the user completes the recovery process, you would need to update their account to have admin privileges. It's important to note that the concept of "admin" is not built into Ory Identities by default. You would need to implement this in your schema and application logic. The process of designating a user as an admin after creation is not detailed in the provided knowledge sources. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on creating admin identities, especially when there are no current admins, I recommend contacting Ory support directly. They can provide guidance specific to your setup and requirements.

Regarding the option to create an identity using the Admin API, you don't necessarily need to be an admin user, but you do need to have the appropriate API key with the required permissions. Here's the important information to consider: 1. API Key Authorization: To use the Admin API, you need to include an Ory API Key in the

Authorization

header of your request. This is evident from the curl example in the [Create identities](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/create-users-identities) documentation:

bash    --header "Authorization: Bearer ory_pat_xRKLsFEOUFQFVBjd6o3FQDifaLYhabGd"

2. API Key Permissions: According to the [Ory Network API Keys](https://www.ory.sh/docs/concepts/personal-access-token) documentation, "API Keys are used to authorize privileged operations to Ory Network Project Admin APIs. For example, you must use an API Key to call the Admin API, which allows you to delete users." 3. Creating API Keys: You can create API Keys in the Ory Console. The process involves: - Going to Project settings → API Keys in the [Ory Console](https://console.ory.sh/projects/current/developers). - Clicking Create new API key - Entering the API Key name - Selecting an expiration date - Clicking Create 4. API Key Scope: The documentation states, "API Keys are bound to an Ory Network project, and not to a specific user. This means that any user with access to the API Key can perform the operations that the API Key allows, even if they are no longer part of the project." So, to answer your question directly: You don't need to be an "admin user" in the traditional sense, but you do need to have access to an API Key with the necessary permissions to use the Admin API. This API Key essentially grants you admin-level access to perform operations like creating identities. It's important to note that the concept of an "admin user" within Ory Identities is not explicitly defined in the provided documentation. The admin capabilities are primarily controlled through API Keys and their associated permissions.

Based on the information provided in the knowledge sources, it is not possible to update an identity's ID using the identity update HTTP request. The identity ID is a unique identifier that cannot be changed once it has been assigned. This is evident from the documentation for the

updateIdentity

and

patchIdentity

API endpoints: 1. For the

updateIdentity

endpoint (

PUT /admin/identities/{id}

), the [Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api) states: "This endpoint updates an [identity](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/concepts/identity-user-model). The full identity payload (except credentials) is expected." The ID is a parameter in the URL, not part of the payload that can be updated. 2. For the

patchIdentity

endpoint (

PATCH /admin/identities/{id}

), the [Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api) explicitly mentions: "The fields

id

,

stateChangedAt

and

credentials

can not be updated using this method." This restriction on updating the ID makes sense from a security and data integrity perspective, as the ID is used as the primary identifier for the identity throughout the system. If you need to associate a different identifier with an identity, you might consider using custom traits or metadata fields, which can be updated. However, these would be secondary identifiers and not the primary ID of the identity in the Ory system. For example, you could update other fields of an identity using a payload like this:

json {   "schema_id": "your_schema_id",   "traits": {     "email": "<mailto:newemail@example.com|newemail@example.com>"   },   "metadata_public": {     "custom_id": "your_custom_identifier"   } }

But remember, this does not change the actual ID of the identity in the Ory system.

Yes, it is possible to mark an identity as verified when creating or updating an identity using HTTP requests. This can be done by including the

verifiable_addresses

field in your request payload. Here's how you can do it: 1. Creating a verified identity: When creating a new identity, you can include the

verifiable_addresses

field in your request body to mark the identity as verified. Here's an example payload:

json {   "schema_id": "<preset://email>",   "traits": {     "email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>"   },   "verifiable_addresses": [     {       "value": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>",       "verified": true,       "via": "email",       "status": "completed"     }   ] }

You would send this payload to the

/admin/identities

endpoint using a POST request. [Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api) 2. Updating an existing identity to mark it as verified: When updating an existing identity, you can use a similar approach. Here's an example payload:

json {   "schema_id": "<preset://email>",   "traits": {     "email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>"   },   "verifiable_addresses": [     {       "value": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>",       "verified": true,       "via": "email",       "status": "completed"     }   ] }

You would send this payload to the

/admin/identities/{id}

endpoint using a PUT request. [Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api) It's important to note a few things: 1. The

verifiable_addresses

field must correspond to an address that is represented in the Identity Schema. If it's not, this field will be overwritten on the next identity update. 2. Make sure that address verification is enabled in your Ory configuration. 3. When importing verified addresses, you must ensure that the address is also present in the identity's traits and marked as a verifiable email in the identity schema. [Import identities](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/import-user-accounts-identities) Here's an example of how your identity schema should look to support this:

json {   "$id": "<https://example.com/person.schema.json>",   "$schema": "<http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#>",   "title": "Person",   "type": "object",   "properties": {     "traits": {       "type": "object",       "properties": {         "email": {           "format": "email",           "type": "string",           "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": {             "verification": {               "via": "email",             },           },         },       },       "required": ["email"],     },   }, }

By following these steps, you can mark an identity as verified when creating or updating it through HTTP requests.

To log in using the identity you just created, you'll need to use the login flow provided by Ory Identities. The process depends on whether you're using a browser-based flow or an API-based flow. I'll explain both methods: 1. Browser-based login: For browser-based login, you'll use the login flow as described in the [Login flow documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/user-login#client-side-browser-clients-ajax): a. Initialize the login flow by making a GET request to:

https://<your-project-url>/self-service/login/browser

b. This will return a login flow object. Use the

action

URL from this object to submit your login credentials. c. Submit a POST request to the

action

URL with your credentials. For example:

json    {      "identifier": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>",      "password": "your_password",      "method": "password"    }

d. If successful, you'll receive a response with a

Set-Cookie

header containing the session cookie. 2. API-based login: For API clients, the process is similar but with slight differences: a. Initialize the login flow by making a GET request to:

https://<your-project-url>/self-service/login/api

b. This will return a login flow object. Use the

action

URL from this object to submit your login credentials. c. Submit a POST request to the

action

URL with your credentials. For example:

json    {      "identifier": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>",      "password": "your_password",      "method": "password"    }

d. If successful, you'll receive a JSON response containing the session token and session information:

json    {      "session_token": "your_session_token",      "session": {        "id": "session_id",        "active": true,        "expires_at": "expiration_time",        "authenticated_at": "authentication_time",        "issued_at": "issue_time",        "identity": {          // Identity information        }      }    }

You can use this session token for subsequent authenticated requests. [Ory Identities API - Login](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/user-login#api-clients) Remember to replace

<your-project-url>

with your actual Ory project URL, and use the correct identifier (email, username, or phone number) that you used when creating the identity. Also, note that if you created the identity without setting up credentials (like a password), you might need to go through a recovery flow to set up the credentials before you can log in.

You're right, and I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. If you didn't include a password when creating the identity, there won't be a password associated with it. Let me explain how you can add a password to an existing identity: 1. Using the Admin API: You can use the Admin API to set or update the password for an existing identity. Here's how you can do it:

bash curl -X PUT 'https://{project-slug}.<http://projects.oryapis.com/admin/identities/{id}|projects.oryapis.com/admin/identities/{id}>' \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer {ORY_API_KEY}' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{   "schema_id": "<preset://email>",   "traits": {     "email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>"   },   "credentials": {     "password": {       "config": {         "password": "new_password"       }     }   } }'

Replace

{project-slug}

,

{id}

,

{ORY_API_KEY}

,

<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>

, and

new_password

with your actual values. [Ory API Reference](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api) 2. Using the Recovery Flow: If you want the user to set their own password, you can use the recovery flow: a. Initiate a recovery flow for the identity. b. Send a recovery link to the user's email. c. When the user clicks the link, they can set a new password. [Ory Identities - Recovery Flow](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/account-recovery-password-reset) 3. Password Import: If you're importing identities from another system and have their passwords, you can import the passwords directly:

json {   "schema_id": "<preset://email>",   "traits": {     "email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>"   },   "credentials": {     "password": {       "config": {         "hashed_password": "argon2$v=19$m=65536,t=3,p=4$7u7UePmNxZq7ewE5jfPksA$jgiRhH7Fn/sSadNLlmTlEvAZd4hqSJgwYULWL9uhjsM"       }     }   } }

This method requires that you have the password hashed in the correct format. [Import identities](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/import-user-accounts-identities#importing-credentials) Remember, when adding a password to an existing identity, make sure your identity schema supports password authentication. If you're using a custom schema, ensure it includes the necessary fields for password credentials. After adding a password using one of these methods, the user should be able to log in using their identifier (email, username, or phone number) and the newly set password.

When you successfully log in using the browser flow, it's expected behavior that you don't receive a

session_token

in the response body. This is by design for browser-based flows. Let me explain why this happens and what you should look for instead: 1. Browser Flow vs API Flow: The browser flow and API flow handle sessions differently. In the browser flow, the session is managed using cookies, not a session token in the response body. 2. Expected Behavior for Browser Flow: As described in the [Login flow documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/user-login#successful-login), when the login is completed successfully in a browser flow, Ory Identities responds with: - An HTTP 303 Redirect to the configured redirect URL - A

Set-Cookie

header containing the Ory Session Cookie Here's an example of what the response headers might look like:

HTTP/1.1 303 See Other    Cache-Control: 0    Location: <http://127.0.0.1:4455/>    Set-Cookie: ory_kratos_session=MTU5OTE2ODc2N3xEdi1CQkFFQ180SUFBUkFCRUFBQVJfLUNBQUVHYzNSeWFXNW5EQThBRFhObGMzTnBiMjVmZEc5clpXNEdjM1J5YVc1bkRDSUFJR055VlROMGRteHhSakJrUzBkbmRUUjBlVFY1V0RCRWFVTnJXVmR6V25oaHx2DICsB6IMbaHSQwnYITUZqr7Qx7CxUlnaneJWH495wQ==; Path=/; Expires=Fri, 04 Sep 2020 21:32:47 GMT; Max-Age=86400; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax    Vary: Cookie    Date: Thu, 03 Sep 2020 21:32:47 GMT    Content-Length: 0

3. What to Look For: Instead of a

session_token

in the response body, you should look for: - The

Set-Cookie

header in the response, which contains the session cookie - The redirect to your configured post-login URL 4. Verifying the Session: To verify that the session is active, you can make a request to the

/sessions/whoami

endpoint with the session cookie. For example:

bash    curl -s -H "Cookie: ory_kratos_session=MTU5OTE2ODc2N3xEdi1CQkFFQ180SUFBUkFCRUFBQVJfLUNBQUVHYzNSeWFXNW5EQThBRFhObGMzTnBiMjVmZEc5clpXNEdjM1J5YVc1bkRDSUFJR055VlROMGRteHhSakJrUzBkbmRUUjBlVFY1V0RCRWFVTnJXVmR6V25oaHx2DICsB6IMbaHSQwnYITUZqr7Qx7CxUlnaneJWH495wQ==" \      https://{project-slug}.<http://projects.oryapis.com/sessions/whoami|projects.oryapis.com/sessions/whoami>

This should return the session information if the login was successful. If you're not seeing the

Set-Cookie

header or the redirect, there might be an issue with your configuration or how you're handling the response. Make sure you're allowing cookies in your browser or client, and that you're correctly following redirects. Remember, if you need a

session_token

in the response body (for example, for a mobile app), you should use the API-based login flow instead of the browser flow. [Ory Identities API - Login](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/user-login#api-clients)
