Overview

The X-Profile module provides high performance search queries for customer and company data.

Key Features

Through X-Profile, you can perform create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations with users, companies, and contacts. All such operations can be completed with various queries, which are listed and detailed in the sections below.

How It Works

Just like other xAPI modules, X-Profile resides on a website's or application's back end and is managed with queries. It enables efficiently creating, updating, and deleting various entity profiles. The chart below shows how X-Profile works in case of creating a new user (customer):

      "password": "password",
      "email": "[email protected]" 
    }
  }
}

The mutation registers a company when all argumets have been provided, and registers a customer only when the company value is null. If a company is created, the customer becomes its member and owner. In this case customer gets the Organization maintainer role whose name or ID must be provided in appsettings.json.

The user that creates a company and/or customer is always displayed as frontend.

The company status is determined by the Company default status store setting, while contact and account statuses come from the Contact default status setting. Both settings must be provided in advance.

Example of the role name settings provided below.

{
...
    "FrontendSecurity": {
            "OrganizationMaintainerRole": "Organization maintainer"
        },
...
}

SendVerifyEmail

Send email verification email. If userId is specified, the email property will be ignored. If a user is authorized then userId and email will be taken from the current profile.

Query:

mutation($command: InputSendVerifyEmailType!) {
  sendVerifyEmail(command: $command) 
}

Variables:

{
  "command": {
     "storeId": "B2B-store", 
     "languageCode": "EN-US",
     "userId": "4162ff51-c880-4e42-bc4b-4bfd120a0bdf"
