I'm not sure what you refer to when writing "activation email" and 
"creating entities"?

If you mean email verification email then you can only disable sending 
of confirmations.

However there is another mechanism which can help: invitations. By using 
invitations you can control sending of email (including manual sending 
of such email, or activated by REST API). As invitation is received by 
email, and contains unique one time code you can use it as a proof that 
the user controls the account. And so you can auto-accept an invited 
person without any further actions.

Cheers
