It will list all http request and json data so you can easily track down what is going on.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>In profile.js you will find that it calls slingshot/profile/uploadavatar webscript for the upload. That is serverside webscript, and their location is</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Navigate to slingshot/profile/ subdirectory, in there you will find uploadavatar.js, and in there you can probably find you answer.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Hope this helps, I know it was not to detailed in how to find what code runs what, but may be a starter.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Sat, 10 Apr 2010 14:23:51 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/how-to-update-profile-s-photo-through-api/m-p/240250#M193380 loftux 2010-04-10T14:23:51Z
