It doesn't matter what I set "type" field to, in the request. It always sets it to "USER" in the response.

This is the request (click for image):

{ "email": "abcd@xyz.com", "type": "EXTERNAL" }

This is the response (click for image):

{ "kind": "admin#directory#member", "etag": ""9zPsLeP9ycRovNIzMe3UcREkFqt8n_JNHD4izBpxyt4/BY6DTvfyl-lbLpaBG_gjKb9l_X0"", "id": "110243826665778914981", "email": "abcd@xyz.com", "role": "MEMBER", "type": "USER", "status": "ACTIVE" }

I tried to do the same, after unsuccessful attempts something I missed to notice in the documentation is the below:

EXTERNAL: The member is a user or group from outside the domain. (Not currently used)

Basically, it does not matter whether the user is external/internal its type will always be set to 'User'.
