Update Account Details for Employees from Automation Hub

As companies are dynamic the details related to people’s departments, business units, other details change very fast. Keep these up to date in Automation Hub by using the /edituser API call.

The below example presents how to update the Business Unit and Department. To do this we'll need to identify the below 2 fields in the body of the request and add the new values corresponding to the user's current Business Unit and Department:

user_business_unit=newbuvalue
user_department=newdptvalue

Note:

The API base URL format varies by deployment environment. For the correct base URL for your environment, see Introduction to the Automation Hub API.
