)

[C++]
public: void Update(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  UserId,

);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvWriteUser privilege and access rights on the object to be updated. See CUserAuth.

UserId

Specifies the ID of the user to be updated. This ID is specified by the platform and obtained at creation time.

UserXML

Specifies an XML string containing user information. The XML schema is described by systemuser.xsd.

Return Value

No return value.

Remarks

The following fields cannot be updated using the Update method: BusinessUnitId, ParentSystemUserId, and IsDisabled. Use the SetBusiness, SetParent, and Disable methods to update these fields.

If there is an error, SOAP throws an exception and the error message is reported in System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException.Detail.OuterXml.

All IDs passed to the platform are GUIDs wrapped in braces. For example: {6522D89A-A752-4455-A2B0-51494C6957C3}
