Remarks

Constants for the user's profile data, which is represented as a single contact on the device that represents the user. The profile contact is not aggregated together automatically in the same way that normal contacts are; instead, each account (including data set, if applicable) on the device may contribute a single raw contact representing the user's personal profile data from that source.

Access to the profile entry through these URIs (or incidental access to parts of the profile if retrieved directly via ID) requires additional permissions beyond the read/write contact permissions required by the provider. Querying for profile data requires android.permission.READ_PROFILE permission, and inserting or updating profile data requires android.permission.WRITE_PROFILE permission.

<h3>Operations</h3> <dl> <dt><b>Insert</b></dt> <dd>The user's profile entry cannot be created explicitly (attempting to do so will throw an exception). When a raw contact is inserted into the profile, the provider will check for the existence of a profile on the device. If one is found, the raw contact's RawContacts#CONTACT_ID column gets the _ID of the profile Contact. If no match is found, the profile Contact is created and its _ID is put into the RawContacts#CONTACT_ID column of the newly inserted raw contact.</dd> <dt><b>Update</b></dt> <dd>The profile Contact has the same update restrictions as Contacts in general, but requires the android.permission.WRITE_PROFILE permission.</dd> <dt><b>Delete</b></dt> <dd>The profile Contact cannot be explicitly deleted. It will be removed automatically if all of its constituent raw contact entries are deleted.</dd> <dt><b>Query</b></dt> <dd> <ul> <li>The #CONTENT_URI for profiles behaves in much the same way as retrieving a contact by ID, except that it will only ever return the user's profile contact. </li> <li> The profile contact supports all of the same sub-paths as an individual contact does - the content of the profile contact can be retrieved as entities or data rows. Similarly, specific raw contact entries can be retrieved by appending the desired raw contact ID within the profile. </li> </ul> </dd> </dl>
