Create User
Please note that both POST and PATCH calls on the user document perform various asynchronous operations. So it's not recommended to make subsequent POST and then PATCH requests on the same user document as that can lead to various race conditions. We recommend submitting all documents at once vs performing subsequent operations on the same document.

}'Verifying Addresses We validate addresses to ensure an address is mailable. Prior to submitting an address, we encourage you to Verify Address. We also recommend that you use Google Maps, the USPS ZIP Code Lookup Tool or similar tools to autocomplete addresses prior to verifying. This should reduce the risk of submitting improperly formatted addresses.
