You can use the Profile extension to store attributes about your user on the client. This information can be used later to target and personalize messages during online or offline scenarios, without having to connect to a server for optimal performance. The Profile extension manages the Client-Side Operation Profile (CSOP) and provides a way to react to APIs, updates user profile attributes, and shares the user profile attributes with the rest of the system as a generated event.

The Profile data is used by other extensions to perform profile-related actions. An example is the Rules Engine extension that consumes the profile data and runs rules based on the profile data.

Important: The Profile extension does not require any configuration.

To get started with the Profile extension:

  1. Configure the Profile Extension in Launch.

  2. Add the Profile extension to your app.

  3. Implement Profile APIs to:

    • Update user attributes.

    • Remove user attributes.

Add Profile to your App

To add the Profile extension to your app:


  1. Add the UserProfile library to your project using the app's gradle file.

  2. Import the UserProfile library and any other SDK library in your application's main activity.



  1. Add the UserProfile library to your project via your Podfile by adding pod 'ACPUserProfile'.

  2. Import the UserProfile and Identity library.

#import "ACPCore.h"
#import "ACPUserProfile.h"


import ACPCore
import ACPUserProfile

Register the Profile extension



Required: The setApplication() method must be called once in the onCreate() method of your main activity.

  1. The UserProfile extension must be registered with Mobile Core before calling an UserProfile API.

    This can be done after calling setApplication() in the onCreate() method. Here is a code sample, which calls these set up methods:

public class MobileApp extends Application {
public void onCreate() {
try {
} catch (Exception e) {
//Log the exception


Required: You must complete the following steps in the app before calling other UserProfile APIs.

  1. In your app's didFinishLaunchingWithOptions function register the UserProfile extension.

[ACPUserProfile registerExtension];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
return YES;
