    Hi @Govinda L

    Thank you for posting this in Microsoft Q&A.

    I understand you have users signing in to Azure AD B2C using the email option, and you wish to change the authentication/sign-in email address in Azure AD B2C. If my understanding of the issue is incorrect, feel free to post back.

    Unfortunately, there is no way to change the authentication sign-in email in an Azure AD B2C tenant. One option is to create a new user with that email address and delete the existing one.

    For more information: sign-in-options

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.

    Thanks,

    Navya.

    Hello Govinda L, the built-in user flows in Azure AD B2C do not support changing the email address directly, but you should create a custom user flow. A high-level workflow can look something like this.

    1. Create a custom attribute to store the new email address
    2. Add a step in the user flow to collect and verify the new email address
    3. Update the user profile with the new email address after verification
