1.5 Prerequisites/Preconditions

This protocol operates against a site that is identified by a URL that is known by protocol clients. The protocol server endpoint is formed by appending "_vti_bin/userprofileservice.asmx" to the URL of the site, for example http://www.contoso.com/Repository/_vti_bin/userprofileservice.asmx.

This protocol assumes that authentication has been performed by the underlying protocols.
