Questions about moderator shield badge

Through our back end, not Discourse back end. Sorry for the confusion. I’m on the marketing team, so the technical stuff is a little beyond me.

We’d want to change assign a user group to specific users through our company’s back end. Essentially, we’re trying to create a VIP program where users who spend $X with us become VIP. One of the perks we’re looking at is a title badge. The last question is so that we can aggregate all the users meeting that critera on our side and use the API to move them into the VIP user group. Hope that makes sense.
