The assumption is to use signInType as username - not emailAddress? Just confirming below is answer

   "identities": [

        {

            "signInType": "userName",

            "issuer": "VAABCEXT.onmicrosoft.com",

            "issuerAssignedId": "id_test77",

        }

    ],

    "mail": "******@yahoo.com",

    "passwordProfile": {

        "password": "Abc12345",

        "forceChangePasswordNextSignIn": false

    },

    "passwordPolicies": "DisablePasswordExpiration"

}

Answer 1

This looks good to me. Yes, when you want to specify a login ID that is different from the email address, you should use signInType as userName rather than emailAddress

Make sure the issuer matches your verified domain

For a complete user creation, you might also want to include:

• displayName
• accountEnabled
