Local user
Using the mePerson object
The MePerson object is retrieved through the application.personsAndGroupsManager.mePerson property. For example, the following JavaScript code sample sets the availability of the signed in user to online.
// tell the mePerson to change the availability state
app.personsAndGroupsManager.mePerson.status.set('Online').then(function () {
alert('The status of mePerson has been changed');
}).then(null, function (error) {
// and if could not be changed, report the failure
alert(error || 'The server has rejected this availability state.');
});
MePerson properties which can be set
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| location | Gets or sets the location of the signed in user. |
| note.text | Gets or sets the personal note of the signed in user. |
| status | Gets or sets the availability of the signed in user. |
Note
When the above values contain special characters such as <, >, and they will be padded with zero width whitespace. This can cause equality operations to fail unexpectedly. One option for handling this situation is to filter out these special values so they are not used.
