How to add user to AzureDevOps programmatically (e.g. Rest API) without notification?

I want to add users to my Azure DevOps Services Organization programatically without them getting notifications. I've started with a script like below using the User Entitlement Rest API but users still get notifications:

$method = 'POST'
$devopsuri = "https://vsaex.dev.azure.com/<Devops org name>/_apis/userentitlements?api-version=5.1-preview.1"
$pat = "<pat>"
$encodedPat = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes(":$pat"))
$header = @ {
  Authorization = "Basic $encodedPat"
}
$body = @ {
  "accessLevel" = @ {
    "accountLicenseType" = "stakeholder"
  }
  "user" = @ {
    "principalName" = "<UPN>"
    "subjectKind" = "user"
  }
} | ConvertTo - Json - Depth 5
$result = Invoke - RestMethod - Uri $devopsuri - Method $method - Headers $header - Body $body - UseBasicParsing - ContentType 'application/json'

When we don’t check Send email invites in UI, invitees will not receive notification. So we can grab this api by pressing f12 in the browser.

Rest api: need to add doNotSendInviteForNewUsers=true to the url and use PATCH method.

PATCH https://vsaex.dev.azure.com/{org}/_apis/UserEntitlements?doNotSendInviteForNewUsers=true&api-version=5.1-preview.1

Sample request body:

[{"from":"","op":0,"path":"","value":{"accessLevel":{"licensingSource":1,"accountLicenseType":2,"msdnLicenseType":0,"licenseDisplayName":"Basic","status":0,"statusMessage":"","assignmentSource":1},"user":{"principalName":"[email protected]","subjectKind":"user"}}}]

My test in Postman:
