This section explains the global variables, which are available to all third party scripts, regardless of the action which was performed.



With every action, the %PROFILE hash will be available to the third party script. This hash will contain the member's profile, which the action is being executed against. For example, if a member is being created or deleted, the hash will contain the profile of the member being created / deleted.

The only keys in the %PROFILE hash will be the fields of the member database, and the values being the member's personal profile. For example, if you wanted the member's username, you would use the $PROFILE{'username'} variable, or if you wanted the member's ID#, you would use the $PROFILE{'id'} variable.

Please note, all keys of the hash are in lower case, and all spaces in the database fields are replaced with underscores "_". For example, in order to retrieve the "First Name" of a member, you would use the $PROFILE{'first_name'} variable.



The %EXTRA hash will also be available to all third party scripts executed, regardless of the action. This hash contains additional information on the member, such as the status, member type, and default program structure. The below table describes all variables available within the %EXTRA hash.
