Code samples

const accessToken = 'YOUR_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN';
const orgId = 'YOUR_ORGANIZATION_ID';
const userId = 12345; // ID of the member to update
const apiUrl = `https://go.tallyfy.com/api/organizations/${orgId}/users/${userId}`;


const updateData = {
  last_name: "Smith-Jones",
  phone: "+1-555-123-4567",

headers.append('Authorization', `Bearer ${accessToken}`);
headers.append('Accept', 'application/json');
headers.append('X-Tallyfy-Client', 'APIClient');
headers.append('Content-Type', 'application/json');


fetch(apiUrl, {
    method: 'PUT',
    headers: headers,
    body: JSON.stringify(updateData)
})
.then(response => {
    return response.json().then(data => { // Attempt to parse JSON regardless of status
        if (!response.ok) {
            console.error(`Failed to update member ${userId}:`, data);
            throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
        }
        return data; // Pass successful data along
    });
})
.then(data => {
    console.log(`Successfully updated member ${userId}:`);
    console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
})
.catch(error => {
    console.error(`Error updating member ${userId}:`, error.message);
});

Response

A successful request returns a 200 OK status code and a JSON object containing the full profile of the member after the update.

{
  "data": {
    "id": 12345,
    "email": "specific.user@example.com",
    "first_name": "Alicia", // Updated value
    "last_name": "Smith-Jones", // Updated value
    "full_name": "Alicia Smith-Jones",
    "job_title": "Project Lead", // Updated value
    "phone": "+1-555-123-4567", // Updated value
    "timezone": "America/New_York", // Updated value
    // ... other user properties reflecting the current state ...
    "last_updated": "2024-05-21T12:00:00Z" // Timestamp reflects the update
  }
}

If the user ID is not found, you lack permission, or the request body is invalid, an appropriate error status code (404, 403, 400, 422) will be returned.
