Using $core_v2_user to Update users profile

I am using the following code to create the user, however when I go into the users Settings>Email the options to turn off "Enable Status Message & Comment Email Notifications" is still on. Is this the right field to update (bolded below) to turn these off?

#set($userResponse = $core_v2_user.Create($username, $password, $email, $options))

#set($userResonse.EnableCommentNotifications = false)

#set($userResponse = $core_v2_user.Update())

Hi Gerard,

I would like to suggest taking a look at the "Edit User" widget in Widget Studio. To get the results you are looking for you may need to use the REST endpoint "api.ashx/v2/users/{UserId}.json".

In the "Edit User" widget select the ui.js tab and look at line 171: var data = { ... } down to line 229: $.telligent.evolution.put({ ... }); you'll notice that the EnableCommentNotifications is updated in this call.

Thanks,

Rudy Sandoval

So are you saying rather than have the Velocity script handle the "create/save" new user, I should use the REST API to send a POST to the User endpoint to handle the create user process?

So the problem here is that the objects you get back from nvelocity are immutable.  To update a property of an object, you need to pass the properties into a separate update method e.g.

$core_v2_users.Update("%{Id=2100,property=value,property=value,...}")

The Velocity APIs do not expose EnableCommentNotifications property, so you'll need to set this via the REST endpoint.
