Organizational Account Email Address Update

[ScottAndreasen]

Hi,

How do ArcGIS for Organizations users update their email address? These users do not have a Global account, but instead their accounts are specific to the organization URL (xxxx.maps.arcgis.com).

We didn't see update email address in the My Profile --> Edit My Profile location. Is the update email option buried somewhere?

Thank you

Hi Scott,

It is not possible to update the e-mail address for an ArcGIS Online account.

Thank you,
Andrew

What do we do if that address is incorrect?

For security reasons, we don't let you change your email address. If the address is incorrect, then you will need to delete the account and add a new one.

Thanks,

Mike

TIP: 

Add the new account first.  Then, as the AGOL Administrator, move the user's maps and items from their Old account to their New account via >Gear >Manage Items >Change Owner.  Then delete the old account.

Can you explain why security reasons prevent the changing of the address?

I am an admin for our organization and as such am trusted to perform certain actions.  Can changing the email address of a organizational user be one of those trusted actions?   It is not uncommon for staff in my agency to have their email addresses changed (marital status change etc).
