How to Search On multiple Profile properties

  • Article

The following is a sample code on how to search for multiple profile properties. Note that the Profiles Search handles only And operator when joining search clauses. 

            // Declare return variable.            string returnValue = String.Empty;

            // Declare ProfileManagementContext.            ProfileManagementContext profile;

            // Instantiate ProfileManagementContext as an instance of the             // Profiles Web service.            profile = ProfileManagementContext.Create("https://localhost/ProfilesWebService/ProfilesWebService.asmx");

            // Declare and instantiate SearchClause and SearchOptions objects.            SearchClause searchClause = null;            SearchClause rightClause = null;            SearchOptions searchOptions = new SearchOptions();

            // Build dataset of searchable entities for a profile.            DataSet searchableEntities = profile.GetSearchableEntities();

            // Build search clause for the UserObject.            SearchClauseFactory factory = profile.GetSearchClauseFactory(searchableEntities, "Address");            searchClause = factory.CreateClause(ExplicitComparisonOperator.Equal, "address_line1", "One Microsoft Way");            rightClause = factory.CreateClause(ExplicitComparisonOperator.Equal, "address_line2", "One Microsoft Way");

            searchClause = factory.IntersectClauses(searchClause, rightClause);

            // Set number of records to return.            searchOptions.NumberOfRecordsToReturn = 10;

            // Specify profile properties to return in the search dataset.            searchOptions.PropertiesToReturn = "address_id, address_line1, address_line2";

            // Execute the search against the Profiles Web service.            DataSet searchResults = profile.ExecuteSearch("Address", searchClause, searchOptions);
