Summary

Update a Microsoft Entra user by sending selected profile and account changes to Microsoft Graph. Choose the user from the searchable list or enter its ID, then add the fields to update; the operation can make separate PATCH requests for certain profile fields.

Inputs

  • User to Update (required) — Select a user from the searchable list or provide the user’s ID.
  • Update Fields — Optionally set account status, names, contact and address details, employment information, password settings, user type, and other available profile fields. Date fields are converted to UTC; Business Phone is sent as a one-item list (or an empty list). About Me, Birthday, Interests, My Site, Past Projects, Responsibilities, Schools Attended, and Skills are sent in a separate PATCH request from other selected fields.

Output shape

A single item containing an updated: true object on the normal successful response path.

If no update fields are set, the empty-payload error is ignored and the operation returns the success marker. A missing user produces an error. The separate profile-field PATCH requests do not merge their values into the output item.
