REST API: PUT profile subprofiles

Warning: You are viewing the documentation for the old REST API. We recommend using version 2 of the REST API.

To update or add subprofiles to a profile an HTTP PUT request can be sent to the following URL:

https://api.copernica.com/v1/subprofile/$id/fields?access_token=xxxx

The $id should be replaced with the ID of the subprofile you want to update or add information to.

Available data

The new field values need to be added to the body of the message. This data simply consists of the existing field names on the sub profile you want to change and their new values. If you send your data in JSON format, you’ll need to create an object with field names as keys and field values as values. If, however, you’re using a traditional x-www-form-urlencoded format, the variables should contain the names of the fields you want to change, and the values should be the new field values.

PHP example

The following PHP script demonstrates how the API method can be called.

// dependencies
require_once('copernica_rest_api.php');

// change this into your access token
$api = new CopernicaRestApi("your-access-token");

// declare the id of the profile and sub profile that you want to edit
$profile = 1;
$subprofile = 1

// data to pass to the call, the new interests
$data = array(
    'firstname' =>  'John',
    'lastname'  =>  'Doe',
    'email'     =>  'johndoe@example.com'
);

// do the call
$api->put("subprofile/{$id}/fields", $data);

The example above requires the [CopernicaRestApi class](rest-php).
