Profile refers to the user's metadata handled by the system. Profile data is attached to the
Member
object, which is part of any Relationship.
A user's profile name is their set name within the service. There are two ways a user can set their username:
  1. Users can set (or get) their names using the player names service.
  2. Users can get an automatically-generated username. You can set this up by using the player names service when retrieving relationship lists (such as the friend list). For example, you might want to set a generated username if the user doesn't set one.
