New page

{{Protocols/MSNP/MSNP13 Navigation}}

= Overview =
The new protocol handles almost everything through SOAP requests, including changing your nickname or a contact's nickname, or any other details. This section handles those changes.

= Changing Your/A Contact's Nickname =
== SOAP Request ==
To change your nickname, you need to use this method along with PRP, if you only use PRP, your nickname will disappear the next time you sign in. A simple SOAP request to "https://contacts.msn.com/abservice/abservice.asmx" with the action "http://www.msn.com/webservices/AddressBook/ABContactUpdate" will do it:

POST /abservice/abservice.asmx HTTP/1.1
SOAPAction: http://www.msn.com/webservices/AddressBook/ABContactUpdate

''displayName'' is the field where you should place your nickname or your contact's nickname. You can also change other fields but for now, I will only handle display names. ''contactType'' is ''Me'' because you're changing your own display name. The rest has been discussed before.

== SOAP Reply ==
Here's a snippet of the reply you should get from the server.
