Need to get the name and the Site ID of a specific user using SharePoint Webservices

Question

Hi,
I need to get the User's name by passing the Login Name using SharePoint OOB Web Services.
I need to pass DOMAIN\\Login ID and get the User's Info i.e. Name and the ID of a particular site.
I'm trying to use GetuserInfo:
$(document).ready(function () {
var soapEnv = "<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">"+
"<soap:Body>"+
"<GetUserInfo xmlns=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/directory/\">"+
"<userLoginName>DOMAIN\\Login ID</userLoginName>"+
"</GetUserInfo>"+
"</soap:Body>"+
"</soap:Envelope>";
$.ajax({
url: "<http://SiteURL>/_vti_bin/usergroup.asmx",
beforeSend: function (xhr) {
xhr.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction",
"http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/directory/GetUserInfo");
type: "POST",
dataType: "xml",
data: soapEnv,
complete: processResult,
contentType: "text/xml; charset=\"utf-8\""
function processResult(xData, status) {
alert("Status : " + status);
alert(xData.responseText);
console.log(xData.responseText);
But i get error stating that User does not exist.
Appreciate all your help.

Sachin

Hi Sachin,
The following code for your reference:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
var url ="http://sharepoint/_api/SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager/GetPropertiesFor(accountName=@v)?@v='contoso\\administrator'";
$.ajax({
url: url,
method: "GET",
headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" },
success: function (data) {
var results=data.d.UserProfileProperties.results;
error: function (data) {
</script>
