Right now on my discourse set up, I have it set up to invite only, admin must approve users, and allow new registrations.

The issue I am having though is when I create a user via my API I still have to log in and approve the user on the forum.

So I was wondering if I had to uncheck any of those three to be able to make the user and they are auto created but I don’t have to log in to the discourse to approve them.

I don’t want other users to be able to invite other users to join though as I am creating users based on another sites sign ups.
