Hi @Sumaira :

Do you want to use the canvas app to update the profile of the currently logged in user?
I originally wanted to recommend "Office365Users.UpdateMyProfile" to you, but it looks like you have solved this problem yourself.

Please consider accept your solution as solution so that more people can see it.

Hi @Sumaira :
Please try this code:

Office365Users.UpdateMyProfile({schools:Table({Value:TextInput3.Text})})

It should be noted that the data type of each parameter is different.

Hi @Sumaira :

All I did was to reconstruct the value of TextInput3 into the form of a table so that it conformed to the format required by the school parameters.

You can all use "ClearCollect(ss,Office365Users.MyProfileV2())" to save personal information to the collection ss, and then refer to the data structure of the collection.

Hi @Sumaira :

Do you want to add projuct instead of replacing the original projuct?

Please try this code:

Office365Users.UpdateMyProfile(
    {
        pastProjects: RenameColumns(
            Split(
                Concatenate(
                    TextInput5.Text,
                    "###",
                    Concat(
                        Office365Users.MyProfileV2().pastProjects,
                        Value,
                        "###"
                    )
                ),
                "###"
            ),
            "Result",
            "Value"
        )
    }
)

Hi @Sumaira :

Sorry I didn't understand what you mean, can you describe your needs in detail?

If you encounter any problems in practice, you can directly attach the code and errors, so that I can understand your meaning more easily.

Hi @Sumaira

You can use a power automate to achieve this so you can trigger the Flow from your powerapps.

I have made a similar flow that runs but on Model Driven App User record change it updates the user Info in AD

Please check my blog post.
