Hi,

i couldn't wait no more, so i developed my own Web-Service which updates against the Object-Model of the UserProfileStore.

This works great. Feel free to use this...

Create a WebService-Project
Add a Reference to Microsoft.Office.Server and to Microsoft.SharePoint and Microsoft.SharePoint.Security;
Add the using you need: using Microsoft.Office.Server;using Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles;using Microsoft.SharePoint;using Microsoft.SharePoint.Security;using Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration;using System.Security.Permissions;

Give your MOSS-Contributer the permissions to manage user profiles (http://moss:40000/ssp/admin/_layouts/ManageServicePermissions.aspx)
Add this attribute to the class: [SharePointPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, ObjectModel = true)]
Declare private UserProfileManager UPM = null;
May you want to log... : Declare internal string LogPath = SPDiagnosticsService.Local.LogLocation + "/UPS.utilities.log"; internal StreamWriter logger = null;
Add a logging method, e.g.: private void Write(string message) { SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate() { logger = new StreamWriter(LogPath, true); logger.WriteLine(System.DateTime.Now.ToString() + " - " + message); logger.Flush(); logger.Close(); logger.Dispose(); }); }
In your webmethod create a instance of UserProfileManager : using (SPSite site = new SPSite(http://intranet)) {ServerContext context = ServerContext.GetContext(site);UPM = new UserProfileManager(context);}
Determine the UserProfile of a user: UserProfile profile = UPM.GetUserProfile(UserName); UserName should be a parameter of the webmethod (domain\user).
To update a property set the value: profile["Porpertyname"].Value = newValue.ToString();
Commit the change: profile.Commit();
Sign the assembly and install it to the GAC.
Publish the WebService e.g. as a virtual directory under your Moss-Site
In the InfoPath-Form add Fields you need to set as the WebService-Parameter. Set the values e.g. in the Formoptions (Open/Rules) or somewhere else where it meets your requirements.
Create a DataConnection (send data; WebService) and choose your WebService.
Choose the Fields to set as the parameter.
Call the WebService from e.g. a rule of a command-button

This works fine in my Kerberos-Environment

Good luck

Ronny

Hi Experts,

can not find a Documentation (just specification) on how to pass the ArrayOfPropertyData-parameter for the

WebMethod ModifyUserPropertyByAccountName of SharePoint-WebService _vti_bin/userprofileservice.asmx

when adding a Data Connection to my browser-enabled Form. I want to update a specific property in the UserProfileStore.

In the Data Connection Wizard the parameter is:

Parameter	Typ	Element
s0:newData	ArrayOfPropertyData (complex type)	/my:Group/my:Field

In the parameter option section i can choose a field or group. BUT: how do i tell infopath which property to update with the selected value ???

Do i have to insert the complete xml of the complex type regarding the property and the value i want to update?

like this?

<PropertyData>
          <IsPrivacyChanged>false</IsPrivacyChanged>
          <IsValueChanged>true</IsValueChanged>
          <Name>UserProfilePropertyName</Name>
          <Privacy></Privacy>
          <Values>
            <ValueData xsi:nil="true" ></my:Group/my:Field></ValueData>
            <ValueData xsi:nil="true" />
          </Values>
</PropertyData>

Should be different? Right?

Any help out there....

Thanks Ronny
