UserProfile
Retrieve a user's profile information, including their custom status. This table supports only Select and Update operations.
Select
The connector will use the Slack API to process search criteria that refer to the UserId column. This column support server-side processing for the =,IN operator. The connector processes other filters client-side within the connector.
For example, the following queries are processed server side by the Slack APIs:
SELECT * FROM UserProfile WHERE UserId='W1234567890'; SELECT * FROM UserProfile WHERE UserId in ('W1234567890','W1234567891','W1234567892');
Insert
Slack does not support inserting new users.
Update
There are a number of requirements for updating the user profile:
- Workspace must be on a paid plan to update the profile value for other users.
- Must select “API” as the “Data source” within the Configure Profiles admin tool.
- This operation requires to use a user access token (Not a bot token) that is users.profile:write.
- Org users cannot change their own profile details.
- You cannot change the profile details for another user unless you use a token that was generated by an Owner or Admin.
- You also can only change the profile details for a user if your role level is higher than theirs.
You can update a user profile by providing the Id of the user. For example:
UPDATE UserProfile SET DisplayName = 'Steve', RealName='Steve Smith' , customfields='{"Xf0111111": {"value": "Engineer","alt": ""},"Xf0222222":{"value": "2022-04-11","alt": ""}}', StatusText='riding a train', StatusEmoji=':train:' WHERE userId = 'W1234567890';
