Update a user’s email address
An email address can be updated in Diligent Data Room but to maintain security the process must be initiated, but not completed, by an Organization Administrator. Only after the request has been initiated can an account holder complete the email address update on their account. An Organization Administrator needs to undertake the same process to update their own email address.
Caution
If someone is configured with an authentication provider (OIDC) then the Request email update option will not be displayed. In this situation you must contact Diligent Customer Support.
