Update user

Simple HTTP PUT request to Users API and you can update standard attributes for a user within few seconds!

To update a user with JSON type content set header 'content-type: application/json'. And the data used to update is simply the view (attributes) of user model.

Allowed attributes: assigned_to, city, company_id, country, email, facebook_url, first_name, gender, google_url, gravatar_url, last_name, linkedin_url, notifications, phone_number, region, score, status, timezone, twitter_url, unsubscribed, user_id.

You can also set up any custom attribute of your choice. If specified custom attribute doesn't exist yet it will be created.

If you want to also add tags to the user just pass them as a list of strings. If given tag doesn't exists it will be created. It only adds tags. If the user has a tag not specified it will not be removed.
