@jamesnottidge, as the docs describe, the userId parameter is used if an account with the supplied email doesn't exist yet to create an account. If the account already exists, the userId parameter is ignored. |

Thank you @stnguyen90, however, the docs don’t clearly describe this. Infact, the docs say: "If the provided user ID has not be registered, a new user will be created" Hence, my confusion. Thank you, for shedding light on this for me. Should I open an issue to state this in less ambiguous terms? |

I'm attempting to authenticate users(log-in existing users) via magic-URL.
In order to do that, I'd need to pass in the users ID and email address.
The issue with this is: my userID is not their email address.
I have a separate unique ID.
As such, without logging the user in, I can see no way of obtaining said ID.
Please can anyone help me with a way forward?
