Can't add user via API

That message in the response:

is the confirmation email message:

https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/bd0b558a8995380138cc4a0ae638df9ad724359e/config/locales/server.de.yml#L208

which means that the user is sent a confirmation email. Once they click on it they will be created.

Are you on the latest version of Discourse? If you pass in "active": true it should not send an email confirmation. See Creating user via API - #11 by blake.
