How do I edit profile info

[TxzK]

How do edit profile information such as username or fields and such? I might be just stupid but I can't seem to find anything. Or is that not possible for some reason?

Hi @alzawad26, thank you for posting a question. You can edit a profile for an authorised user by rest.v1.accounts.updateCredentials (Indeed it has a little bit tricky name).

You can use it as follows:

import { createRestAPIClient } from "masto";

const client = createRestAPIClient({ ... });

await client.v1.accounts.updateCredentials({
  displayName: "My new name",
  fieldsAttributes: [
    {
      name: "my title",
      value: "my value",
    },
  ],
});

You can see other available parameters on the official documentation. I hope this helps
