# Verify User

`PATCH /users/{user_id}/verify`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.tickertrac.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.tickertrac.com/users/{user_id}/verify`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - API key in header `X-API-Key`

Admin-only escape hatch: manually mark an account's email verified. Exists

verification email to arbitrary signup addresses (see api/routers/auth.py).
