Аdding department export data from a survey list from user profile services in Sharepoint 2013.

When voting, survey Sharepoint 2013, there is a field created by whom. But the name is not enough. Necessary to add the department name of the profile data in the exported list excel.

Hi,
The OOTB feature “Export to Spreadsheet” won’t contain the department in the exported report, we will need to create a custom one programmatically.
We can use SharePoint Object Model to retrieve the data from the Survey and the User Profile Service, then generate an Excel Spreadsheet with the data we need.

Temp-Contract Worker User Profile Synchronization in SharePoint 2013

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone could provide some feedback on what is the best practice for configuring Temp or Contract worker user profile services in SharePoint 2013. We have had lot of issues within MySites when we make these types of workers AD account inactive
and then active again when they come back on projects. The user profile synchronization does not work correctly and MySites has issues loading the profile etc. Also in the same context are there best practices for Name/Title/Department changes as well.
thank you for your feedback!

Given what you describe I assume you've created a user profile Sync connection filter to remove disabled AD accounts from the user profile sync. That's why you are running into problems. When a user is missing from the import their profile is
deleted within an hour or so, but their MySite isn't deleted for 14 days (to allow time for a manager to clean it off). If the user is reactivated within the 14 day period their old mySite is still there, but is no longer referenced by the new profile
that is created. So When the user goes to their profile it tries to create a new mySite where one already exists. It can't do that.
The same thing will happen if you delete the contractor's user account, but then recreate them in AD when they return. The only way to fix it is to make sure both the profile and mySite site collection in /Personal/ have been deleted before re-adding
an old contractor.

Reorder User Profile properties in SharePoint 2013.

Hi, I have created custom user profile properties in SharePoint 2013 under User Profile Service Application, now I want to change the order of properties as well as also want to move OOTB properties and custom properties from one section to another section.
Is there any Power Shell command available to move properties between sections?
Regards,

Hi Prakash,
Use the script in this blog to retrive user profile properties from a certain section.
http://stevemannspath.blogspot.in/2013/05/sharepoint-20102013-using-powershell-to.html
# Dynamic Settings
$mySiteUrl = "http://mysite.company.net"
$findProperty = "PictureUrl"
Next, we needed to establish the server context:
# Obtain Context based on site
$mySiteHostSite = Get-SPSite $mySiteUrl
$mySiteHostWeb = $mySiteHostSite.OpenWeb()
$context = Get-SPServiceContext $mySiteHostSite
From the context we can instantiate a ProfileManager object and retrieve all of the SharePoint User Profiles:
# Obtain Profiles from the Profile Manager
$profileManager = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileManager($context)
$AllProfiles = $profileManager.GetEnumerator()
$outputCollection = @()
Next, we loop through the profiles and retrieve the account name (for identification purposes) and the property we are interested in finding:
# Loop through profiles and retrieve the desired property
foreach ($profile in $AllProfiles)
$output = New-Object System.Object
$output | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name AccountName -Value $profile["AccountName"].ToString()
$output | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name $findProperty -Value $profile[$findProperty]
$outputCollection += $output
Finally, we list out the collection items that do not have a value for the property (ie. null):
# List all Accounts that do not contain the property
$outputCollection | Where-Object {[bool]$_.($findProperty) -ne $true}
FULL SCRIPT
# Dynamic Settings
$mySiteUrl = "http://mysite.company.net"
$findProperty = "PictureUrl"

$profileManager = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileManager($context)
$AllProfiles = $profileManager.GetEnumerator()
$outputCollection = @()
# Loop through profiles and retrieve the desired property
foreach ($profile in $AllProfiles)
$output = New-Object System.Object
$output | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name AccountName -Value $profile["AccountName"].ToString()

$outputCollection += $output
# List all Accounts that do not contain the property

Place the above code in ContentPlaceholderMain.
// Run your custom code when the DOM is ready.
$(document).ready(function () {
// Specify the unique ID of the DOM element where the
// picker will render.
initializePeoplePicker('peoplePickerDiv');
// Render and initialize the client-side People Picker.
function initializePeoplePicker(peoplePickerElementId) {
// Create a schema to store picker properties, and set the properties.
var schema = {};
schema['PrincipalAccountType'] = 'User,DL,SecGroup,SPGroup';
schema['SearchPrincipalSource'] = 15;
schema['ResolvePrincipalSource'] = 15;
schema['AllowMultipleValues'] = true;
schema['MaximumEntitySuggestions'] = 50;
schema['Width'] = '280px';

User profile service office 365 and infopath

I'm having a very strange issue with the user profile service and InfoPath 2013 web form. I am using Office 365.
I created a data connection to pre-populate user information using the _vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx url.
I can get everything to work when I preview the form within the client, however when I publish the form to a form library I get this error.
"Warning
An error occurred
querying a data source.
Click OK to resume filling out the form.
You may want to check your form data for errors.
Hide error details
An error occurred while trying
to connect to a Web service.
An entry has been added to the Windows event log of the server.
Log ID:5566
Correlation
ID:c525519c-4385-e07f-85c1-fd6bd35a231f"
I have been researching the issue and have come across some cause because of looping or authentication? Is this a known issue? Fix?

I've been having the same issue .... and everything I've read seems to indicate this is currently NOT supported on SharePoint Online / O365 sadly.

How can i start a new user profile service in ordre to replace an old one ?

hi
i create a new user profile service in ordre to replace an old one
when i use : Get-SPServiceApplication i can see that hi is created but
when i use Get-SPServiceInstance i can see it i can see only the old one

Hi,
The Get-SPServiceInstance returns the services instance for a specific server or the entire farm. The service instance GUID is unique to every farm and cannot be changed.
For starting a fresh with the User Profile Service configuration, you can unprovision and re-provision the User Profile Service:

Attempting to Manage User Profile service results in error messages

Hello folks. I've been working on this issue for a bit now, and have searched a number of different ways. Everything I find as a result says "do an iisreset" as the only solution - I've done multiple iisresets and rebooted the server at least twice.
I've been working on setting up the User Profile service and User Profile Synchronization service. After a good bit of troubleshooting, I got the Sync service started successfully; I then decided to attempt to get to the user profile service settings
to begin setting it up for mysites. When selecting the service to manage it, I get the generic error in the browser, with the correlation ID which points me to these errors in my logs (as provided by ulsviewer, love that app)

So far, I'm finding nothing that points to any further troubleshooting past "do an iisreset" or "check that the FIM services are running". I've done plenty of iisresets and the FIM services are running.
Are there any suggestions for this that aren't just doing an iisreset, because that has not fixed it for me...

Ok so I was able to fix the issue.
I installed the latest CU package (currently April 2012) available here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/ff800847
after it installed, I rebooted the SP server, then ran the SP Products Configuration Wizard, then rebooted again.
Next, I removed the User Profile service I had previously created, then recreated everything following the instructions here:
http://sharepointgeorge.com/2010/configuring-the-user-profile-service-in-sharepoint-2010/ to the letter (Gotta make sure you do iisresets at the right places!).
After all this, my issues went away and I was able to proceed with setting up MySites.

How to check user profile service working in sharepoint 2013?

HI All,
How to check user profile service working or not in sharepoint 2013? Thanks.

Hi,
Select which OU's you want to synchronize, then check if all users in those OU's have a user profile in the user profile service application.

Initiall SharePoint Server 2013 setup -- unable to manage new User Profile Service Application

During initial farm setup, creating an initial User Profile Service Application works fine. However, once it's created, I cannot 'manage' it through the Manage Service Applications page in central
admin.
I get a generic error (Sorry, something went wrong / unexpected error) with a correlation ID that doesn't seem to match any ULS log entries. (Yes, I merged logs from all machines in the farm.)
A Windows event log entry says:
A failure was reported when trying to invoke a service application: Endpoint Failure
Also frequent errors in ULS logs: (see below)
UserProfileApplicationNotAvailableException
User Profile Application      Proxy failed to retrieve partitions from User Profile Application: Micro…
SPDistributedCache DataCacheException
I did notice that the file 'ProfileService.svc does not exist in SharePoint's web services app at the URL you see in the error. (below)
I also found it interesting that the event log error shows 1 active endpoint and 3 failed endpoints. I have 2 WFEs and 2 app servers. But I'm only trying to get the user profile service app running on the application
servers. I have deleted and recreated this service app several times under various names (deleted/recreated its app pool as well) and wonder if these other failed endpoints could be orphans from previous instances...
Any thoughts on how I might successfully create this service application? I've already been Binging my head against a wall long enough that I would have been better off reinstalling the entire farm... I may still
do that.
FYI, my farm came from a slipstreamed SP1 install package, and received the July CU after several other things were already configured, including the already-failed UP service application.

Thanks for the suggestion. I performed the service restarts, and then an iisreset an the two web servers, and the application server that does not run the services. Finally, I ran iisreset on the application server that does run the services.
After performing those steps, I still cannot manage the user profile service application.
ULS log at the time of the attempt contains User Profile Application Proxy errors (in my original post) and am also noticing the following error:

Some links and social network features not active in user profile service for some users in sharepoint 2013

Hi everyone,
I installed user profile service and synchronize. When I go to my site by administrator user every things is OK.
But when I login by another user the my site is look like this
Please guide me to resolve this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Can you please check and share mysite setting details. Check for below:
Create a site collection at the root using the My Site Host template
Assuming you want users’ MySites to be created at
http://mySiteHost/personal/[John_Smith], create a Managed Path for the web app. The path should be personal, and the type should be
Wildcard Inclusion.
In User Profile Service Application, set My Site Host location to
http://mySiteHost, and
Personal Site Location to personal.
Enable Self-Service Site Creation for the web app
Check when the timerjob was mysite last executed. Try to manually run them
Check ULS Log for possible error and share error details with us
If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered

but will that replace the use of using up data? (wifi & 3G)
It sounds as if you don't really understand what "using data" means. Data is not something different from WiFi and 3G, it's something sent over WiFi and 3G. Think of data as water and WiFi and 3G as types of pipes. Some apps need to send and receive data to work. That data can be sent or received in different ways. It can be sent over WiFi or 3G. Both official iPhone carriers in the U.S. have metered data plans. It's sounds as if you're talking about AT&T's 200 mb data plan. WiFi is not provided by your cellular carrier. You can have WiFi from your Internet Service Provider at home or you can access free WiFi at places like McDonalds or Starbucks or paid WiFi at places like airports.
If you have WiFi turned on on your phone and WiFi is available, the phone will default to WiFi. WiFi is faster than 3G and generally not metered, and is sometimes even free. If you are out of range of WiFi, you would be using 3G to send and receive your data. With a metered plan, you need to keep an eye on how much you are using because if you go over your allowance, you will be charged additional fees.

User Profile Services start in all sharepoint servers in farm

Hi,
Do we need to start the below services in all sharepoint servers in farm?
1) User Profile Service
2) User Profile Synchronization Service
Thanks....

Hi,
The Web Front end Server is the server that is hosting IIS and serves the websites.
An Application Server has services on it, for example, like Excel services, Project server, etc..
A database server simply hosts the SharePoint core db's and the other Content databases.. It just has SQL Server installation on it.
You only need to start the User Profile Service and User Profile Synchronization Service in the Application Server in farm.
