    Using the member webservice

    I have enabled the Umbraco built in webservices for members and can successfully retrieve a member from the web service (ie a memberCarrier). The next step is to update some of the fields, i am using the code below

    memberServiceSoapClient _memberService = new memberServiceSoapClient();
memberCarrier _memberCarrier = _memberService.readByLogin("[email protected]", "password", "UmbracoUser", "UmbracoUserPassword");
     
memberProperty myProperty= new memberProperty();
myProperty.Key = "myPropertyAlias";
myProperty.PropertyValue = "myPropertyValue";
     
_memberCarrier.MemberProperties.Add(myProperty);

_memberService.update(_memberCarrier, "UmbracoUser", "UmbracoUserPassword");

    The above is all working and the members property gets updated. The problem i am having is that this update method of the web service encrypts my already encrypted password. I have checked through the source code and it appears that the update method does re-encrypt the password, which makes this unusable.

    I would appreciate it if someone could confirm/deny this and if i am doing this incorrectly then advise me as to the correct way of doing this.

    Many thanks

    I would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction

    Is this a bug? am a using the webservice incorrectly? 

    From my understanding, this web service method to update member details is completly unuseable
