Parameters to the UpdateUserProfile() function.

Friend classes

Public functions

Anonymous

bool Anonymous() const 

Returns true if user signed in anonymously.

Delete

Future< void > Delete()

Deletes the user account.

DeleteLastResult

Future< void > DeleteLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to Delete.

DisplayName

virtual std::string DisplayName() const 

Gets the display name associated with the user, if any.

Email

virtual std::string Email() const 

Gets email associated with the user, if any.

EmailVerified

bool EmailVerified() const 

Returns true if the email address associated with this user has been verified.

LinkWithCredential

Future< User * > LinkWithCredential(
  const Credential & credential
)

Links the user with the given 3rd party credentials.

For example, a Facebook login access token, a Twitter token/token-secret pair. Status will be an error if the token is invalid, expired, or otherwise not accepted by the server as well as if the given 3rd party user id is already linked with another user account or if the current user is already linked with another id from the same provider.

LinkWithCredentialLastResult

Future< User * > LinkWithCredentialLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to LinkWithCredential.

PhotoUrl

virtual std::string PhotoUrl() const 

Gets the photo url associated with the user, if any.

ProviderData

const std::vector< UserInfoInterface * > & ProviderData() const 

Gets the third party profile data associated with this user returned by the authentication server, if any.

ProviderId

virtual std::string ProviderId() const 

Gets the provider ID for the user (For example, "Facebook").

Reauthenticate

Future< void > Reauthenticate(
  const Credential & credential
)

Reauthenticate using a credential.

Some APIs (for example, UpdatePassword, Delete) require that the token used to invoke them be from a recent login attempt. This API takes an existing credential for the user and retrieves fresh tokens, ensuring that the operation can proceed. Developers can call this method prior to calling UpdatePassword() to ensure success.

Returns an error if the existing credential is not for this user or if sign-in with that credential failed. The user should remain signed in even if this method failed. If the developer had held a reference to that user, the reference will continue to be valid after this operation.

ReauthenticateLastResult

Future< void > ReauthenticateLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to UpdatePassword.

RefreshToken

std::string RefreshToken() const 

Gets the raw refresh token (only for use in advanced scenarios where manually refresh of tokens is required).

Reload

Future< void > Reload()

Refreshes the data for this user.

For example, the attached providers, email address, display name, etc.

ReloadLastResult

Future< void > ReloadLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to Reload.

SendEmailVerification

Future< void > SendEmailVerification()

Initiates email verification for the user.

SendEmailVerificationLastResult

Future< void > SendEmailVerificationLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to SendEmailVerification.

Token

Future< std::string > Token(
  bool force_refresh
)

The Java Web Token (JWT) that can be used to identify the user to the backend.

If a current ID token is still believed to be valid (i.e. it has not yet expired), that token will be returned immediately. A developer may set the optional forceRefresh flag to get a new ID token, whether or not the existing token has expired. For example, a developer may use this when they have discovered that the token is invalid for some other reason.

TokenLastResult

Future< std::string > TokenLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to Token.

UID

virtual std::string UID() const 

Gets the unique user ID for the user.

Note:The user's ID, unique to the Firebase project. Do NOT use this value to authenticate with your backend server, if you have one. Use User::Token() instead.

Unlink

Future< User * > Unlink(
  const char *provider
)

Unlinks the current user from the provider specified.

Status will be an error if the user is not linked to the given provider.

UnlinkLastResult

Future< User * > UnlinkLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to Unlink.

UpdateEmail

Future< void > UpdateEmail(
  const char *email
)

Sets the email address for the user.

May fail if there is already an email/password-based account for the same email address.

UpdateEmailLastResult

Future< void > UpdateEmailLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to UpdateEmail.

UpdatePassword

Future< void > UpdatePassword(
  const char *password
)

Attempts to change the password for the current user.

For an account linked to an Identity Provider (IDP) with no password, this will result in the account becoming an email/password-based account while maintaining the IDP link. May fail if the password is invalid, if there is a conflicting email/password-based account, or if the token has expired. To retrieve fresh tokens, call Reauthenticate.

UpdatePasswordLastResult

Future< void > UpdatePasswordLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to UpdatePassword.

UpdateUserProfile

Future< void > UpdateUserProfile(
  const UserProfile & profile
)

Updates a subset of user profile information.

UpdateUserProfileLastResult

Future< void > UpdateUserProfileLastResult() const 

Get results of the most recent call to UpdateUserProfile.
