First. The resource

variable names!
The resource should be
"http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/XWiki/pages/user01/objects/XWikiUsers/0/properties/first_name"
The value will be given through the PUT request body, that you didn't
initialize in your code.
Using curl, for example you would have done something like this:
$ curl -v -u Admin:admin -X PUT -H "Content-type: text/plain"
--data-ascii "Real User01 Name"
http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/XWiki/pages/user01/obje…
To see how this is translated in Java you can hava a look at the
functional tests for the REST Api. You can find them here:
http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/enterprise/trunk/distribution-test/rest-…
And in particular, for objects and properties you can have a look at:
http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/enterprise/trunk/distribution-test/rest-…
Hope it helps,

All this personal information is stored in the XWiki.XWikiUsers object.
Go to your profile page, edit with the object editor and expand the
XWiki.XWikiUsers object. You'll see a lot of properties. I'm sure there
is a way to set those properties using the REST Api.
Hope this helps,

Hi Marius,
Thanks for the reply.
I checked it out and I can saw those properties. I too believe there is a
way to set those properties. I went through the Restful API documentation at
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI
and tried to set the property like below
.....
PutMethod putMethod = new
PutMethod("http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/XWiki/pages/user01/objects/XWikiUsers/0/properties/first_name=MyName");
putMethod.addRequestHeader("Accept",
MediaType.APPLICATION_XML.toString());
httpClient.executeMethod(putMethod);
......
Can somebody find anything wrong here? Am I missing some point?
