PUT Update a Consumer Profile
POST /consumer/v2/profiles/{profileId}
Development Guide
The consumer profile update API modifies the address and mobile phone information of a consumer's profile.
1. Prepare headers & authentication:
The application must call the Update Consumer Profile endpoint with a GET HTTP method, providing the OAuth access_token
in the header and all other required header values.
NOTE: MoneyGram uses the OAuth 2.0 framework. The application must use their OAuth client credentials to generate an
accessToken
by calling the Get access token endpoint. The token is valid for 1 hour and must be passed as a header value in all subsequent API HTTP calls. Learn More

2. Provide profileId
as a path parameter:
profileId
as a path parameter:The application must provide all theprofileId
as a path parameter.

3. Provide request body:
The application must provide the following required fields in the request body: profileDetails.address.line1
, profileDetails.address.city
, profileDetails.address.countrySubdivisionCode
, profileDetails.address.countryCode
, profileDetails.address.postalCode
, profileDetails.mobilePhone.number
, profileDetails.mobilePhone.countryDialCode

4. Make the request and handle the response:
The application will call the 'Update a Consumer Profile' endpoint with a PUT HTTP method. The application must build to handle the following response scenarios.
- Success | Parse the Response | 200 OK HTTP Status
When the update a consumer profile endpoint responds with a 200 HTTP Status, the response will return theupdateSuccess: true
, and the consumerprofileId
that was updated.
- Failed | Handle the Error | 400 Bad Request HTTP Status
When the Update a consumer profile endpoint responds with 400 HTTP Status, specific error code/s will be returned with an array of offending fields. The application will need to resolve these errors and resubmit the update request
