Short answer

How can I update user profiles with my AI?

You tell your agent which user to find and what information to change. It handles the database lookups and property updates for you. You'll see how the data moves from your chat to your database below.

Database outcomes

Where your data changes land.

Your AI handles the heavy lifting of finding and modifying user data.

SEARCH

Find specific users

The AI scans your database to identify the people you're talking about. You get a filtered list or a specific profile instantly.

UPDATE

Modify custom properties

Once the user is identified, the AI writes the new data to their profile. This keeps your custom fields current without opening a dashboard.

VERIFY

Confirm data changes

The AI checks the updated profile to ensure the new values are saved correctly. You can ask for a summary of what changed.

REVIEW

Human oversight

You decide which updates are valid before the AI executes them. The AI presents the intended change for your approval first.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for a profile update.

The AI moves through a sequence of lookups and writes to ensure the right data hits the right person.

  1. Identify the target

    The AI looks through your user list to find the person you mentioned by name or email.

    list_users

  2. Pull current data

    It grabs the full profile of that user to see their existing custom properties.

    get_user_details

  3. Apply changes

    The AI pushes the new information into the specific custom fields you requested.

    set_user_props

  4. Validate the update

    It performs a final check to confirm the user's properties match your command.

    get_user_details
