I got a requirement to update the User Profile properties
for one of my client. We have only option to do that using SPServices because they
are not allowing any server side code. In SPServices we can directly update the user profile services using “ModifyUserPropertyByAccountName”
method. By passing current logged-in user account to the method we can update
the user profile properties using SPServices. I have found the following code
from here (http://azzu-sheikh.blogspot.in/2014/01/update-user-profile-property-through.html)to
update the user profile service.
function updateUserProfileProperty(currentLoggedInUser,
propertyName, propertyValue) {
var propertyData
= "<PropertyData>" +
"<IsPrivacyChanged>false</IsPrivacyChanged>" +
"<IsValueChanged>true</IsValueChanged>" +
"<Name>" +
propertyName + "</Name>" +
"<Privacy>NotSet</Privacy>" +
"<Values><ValueData><Value
xsi:type=\"xsd:string\">" + propertyValue + "</Value></ValueData></Values>" +
"</PropertyData>";
$().SPServices({
operation: "ModifyUserPropertyByAccountName",
async: false,
webURL: "/",
accountName: currentLoggedInUser,
newData: propertyData,
completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
var result
= $(xData.responseXML);
if (Status
== "success") {
//do update action
}
}
});
}
We can change the user property details by getting property
data in to the method and passing the current logged-in user account details as
shown the code above.
