Limitations of client/events

Hi!

In the client/events documentation , there is a paragraph about profiles update limitations:

Note that to update a profile's existing identifiers (e.g., email), you must use a server-side endpoint authenticated by a private API key. Attempts to do so via client-side endpoints will return a 202, however the identifier field(s) will not be updated.

 

I would like to know exactly what limitation do we have on this route, because I could use it to update the phone identifier using it, for example.

Thanks

Did this topic or the replies in the thread help you find an answer to your question?

Hi @hugodev!

That blurb is simply saying that if you are making an API call that is intended to update any existing identifier (including phone number), you must use a server side endpoint that is authenticated by a private API key.

 

If you are asking if you are able to update a person’s phone number with a client-side endpoint, that is not possible at this moment.

 

Best,

Brian
