Get user by any profile value? #65

Is there a way to get the user profile by a field other than the username?

I'm working on an interactive style floor map, and it would be helpful if I were able to get the user by their Office profile value.

There are three different operations in the UserProfile service to get a User Profile:

GetUserProfileByGuid
GetUserProfileByIndex
GetUserProfileByName

You might want to use the userID value with GetUserProfileByIndex. Alternatively, call $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser to get the field(s) you need.

Finally, if you are in SharePoint 2013+, use a REST call instead.
