`is-verified-creator` endpoint always returns True

Reproduction Steps
Send a GET request to https://develop.roblox.com/v1/user/is-verified-creator.

Expected Behavior
The endpoint should do one of two things:

  • return the ID verification status of the user with the user ID determined by a query parameter like userId
  • return the ID verification status of the authenticated user

I am unsure which of these behaviors was originally intended because of this bug.

Actual Behavior
The response is always the following:

{
  "isVerifiedCreator": true
}

It always returns this, even on accounts that are not ID verified or email verified, no matter what query parameters are passed.

Hey jmk, this endpoint predates the age verification feature by a few years and so was never intended to have ID verification information in the response, it is completely unrelated. This endpoint was meant to show a different kind of “verification” status but that feature never shipped, so this endpoint is obsolete at the moment.

Please file a feature request if you believe to have a valid use case for an endpoint to query a user’s ID verification status.
