Describe the Bug

Trying to update a user from user PUT api, but nothing changed. The returned user is the same and no errors.

user_id = 6
url = f"{url_host}/api/users/{user_id}"
data = '''{
    "name": "test name",
    "email": "aaa@test.com",
    "roles": [5]
}'''
response = requests.put(url, headers=headers, data=data)
if response.status_code == 200:
    print(response.json())
else:
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code}")

output:
{'id': 6, 'name': 'test', 'email': 'test@test.com', 'created_at': '2023-08-25T01:54:29.000000Z', 'updated_at': '2023-08-25T01:54:29.000000Z', 'external_auth_id': '', 'slug': 'test', 'profile_url': 'http://localhost/user/test', 'edit_url': 'http://localhost/settings/users/6', 'avatar_url': 'http://localhost/user_avatar.png', 'roles': [{'id': 4, 'display_name': 'Public'}]}

Steps to Reproduce

user_id = 6
url = f"{url_host}/api/users/{user_id}"
data = '''{
    "name": "test name",
    "email": "aaa@test.com",
    "roles": [5]
}'''
response = requests.put(url, headers=headers, data=data)
if response.status_code == 200:
    print(response.json())
else:
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code}")
