Birthday field not showing in GMail Contact details

[Apps Guru]

I am using Python 2.0.4 for support for profiles.

I am trying to add birthday field (and other fields) for existing
users in my domain using profile API in python

I was able to add birthday field using following syntax:
entry.birthday = gdata.contacts.Birthday(when='2009-04-09')

I am able to retrieve the value by doing in my app:
birthday = entry.birthday.when

but when I search for this contact in GMail UI (in Contacts tab), I
see all other fields added/updated but not birthday field

I have additional_headers = {'GData-Version': 3} so version should not
be an issue.

Interestingly, when I add the birthday field for external contacts
using Contacts API, I am able to see the birthday field updated in
GMail UI.

Is there an issue with Profile API updating the birthday field for
GMail?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

Apparently this issue is not related to just Python, I can see the
profile information with the birthday in the feed but as you mention
the UI is not showing it.

Please file a bug at:

Thanks,
Julian

Julian,

    On a related note, when I try to use Profiles feed functionality in python 2.0.4,

I am able to get 60 results by calling GetProfilesFeed()

After that when I call GetProfilesFeed(next.href) - it does not work, it keeps giving me first sixty results. I have checked the href value, it looks fine.

I tried getting the profiles via query parameter - it seems q.start_index is not supported for profiles, it always starts from 1 irrespective of its value.

Can you please look into this. I need to page through the various profiles of 250 domain users.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!!
