Thanks, Jason. Lets start over.

Just to confirm that we are using the right custom settings as there was some changes made after the initial request. user.data was changed to profile. (hinterlands.demo)

 

According to what we are aware, these are the settings that have been set up.

 
[hinterlands]    
data                                     :wc        string      0       64000
[profile]
user.data                             :wcu      string      0       64000
 
What is the difference between [hinterlands] and [profile]?
 
Given this is correct, we are able to print these settings out. We have set values previously as you can see below.

<response status="success">
<value type="string">my user data ONE</value>
</response>

 

 
The problem we are having is that we can no longer set these settings by using the code supplied in the original post.
Does this code work for you on your system?
btw, we have tried them in a custom component and tested them in a page.
It is critical for us to set these settings.

Hi Peter,

I honestly got no clue what's your use cases are nor what intentions were :smileyhappy:

Guessing  [profile] user.data is probably what you should be using.

 

I took a quick look at your env and i think i understand what's happening.

 

The profile settings were added to your env in revision 588289 (at least from the back-end I see)

when you revert to revision 453056 - the file that contains the profile setting gets deleted

 

Try reverting back to the 588289 revision, that should do the trick

    Thank you, Jason, it works now for admin.
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    profile.user.data = ${settings.name.get("profile.user.data")}
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    /restapi/vc/users/self/settings/name/profile.user.data/set

     

     

    But not for the normal user. Now i get error 303. Permission Denied.
