Change a Permanent User's Profile

• To change the Profile of a Permanent User we first have to determine the id of the Permanent User.
• A CRM system typically do not know the id of the Permanent User in RADIUSdesk.
• With the sample script we use two APIs
  • The one API is used get a list of Permanent Users to collect their ids.
  • The other API is used to change the Profile of the list of Permanent Users which was obtained.

• We are not limited to only one user but we can adjust the filter for instance to change the Profiles of all the users with a specific suffix e.g. @dev.
• For this we have to make the following adjustments:

$username   = '@dev';
 
// Filter settings
$filter     = 'username'; //field that filter should apply to
$operator   = 'like';  //Options '==','like' 
$value      = $username; //can also be set to boolean e.g. true or false to filter for instance on the 'active' field
$limit      = 1000;
