The User Profile Attribute Provider
The User Profile Attribute Provider has a rich set of user attributes that you can maintain regardless of which directory service the user is a member of. The attributes are stored in the My webMethods Server database. Once established for each user, the User Profile Attributes can be used with the global wiring feature described in Wiring a Principal Attribute to a Portlet Property.
A My webMethods Server Administrator, system administrator, or the individual user (if given permission) can edit the User Profile attributes. You need to enter the user profile attributes individually for each user, or allow the user to do so. You can use all of the attributes or a subset that is appropriate to your needs. To edit the User Profile attributes, see Editing Information for a User.
