POST /user/update

This endpoint is used to update user information associated with an existing user_token. It can also be used to enable an existing user_token for use with Consumer Reports by Plaid Check, by adding a consumer_report_user_identity object to the user. Plaid Check Consumer Reports can only be created for US-based users; the user's address country must be US.

Request body fields

Name	Type	Required	Description
`user_token`	String	Yes	The user token associated with the User data is being requested for.
`client_id`	String	No	Your Plaid API `client_id`. The `client_id` is required and may be provided either in the `PLAID-CLIENT-ID` header or as part of a request body.
`secret`	String	No	Your Plaid API `secret`. The `secret` is required and may be provided either in the `PLAID-SECRET` header or as part of a request body.
`consumer_report_user_identity`	Object	Yes	To create a Plaid Check Consumer Report for a user, this field must be present on the user token. If this field is not provided during user token creation, you can add it to the user later by calling `/user/update`. Once the field has been added to the user, you will be able to call `/link/token/create` with a non-empty `consumer_report_permissible_purpose` (which will automatically create a Plaid Check Consumer Report), or call `/cra/check_report/create` for that user.
`consumer_report_user_identity.date_of_birth`	String	Yes	To be provided in the format "yyyy-mm-dd". This field is required for all Plaid Check customers.
`consumer_report_user_identity.primary_address`	Object	Yes	Data about the components comprising an address.
`consumer_report_user_identity.primary_address.region`	String	Yes	The region or state. In API versions 2018-05-22 and earlier, this field is called `state`. Example: `"NC"`
`consumer_report_user_identity.primary_address.postal_code`	String	Yes	The postal code. In API versions 2018-05-22 and earlier, this field is called `zip`.
`consumer_report_user_identity.primary_address.country`	String	Yes	The ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code
`consumer_report_user_identity.primary_address.street`	String	Yes	The full street address Example: `"564 Main Street, APT 15"`

Phone numbers provided in other formats will be parsed on a best-effort basis. Phone number input is validated against valid number ranges; number strings that do not match a real-world phone numbering scheme may cause the request to fail, even in the Sandbox test environment.
`consumer_report_user_identity.first_name`	String	Yes	The user's first name
`consumer_report_user_identity.emails[]`	Array	Yes	The user's emails
