Remarks

CreateUser adds a new user to the data store and returns a MembershipUser object for the newly created user. If the user creation fails, a MembershipCreateUserException is thrown. You can retrieve a MembershipCreateStatus value from the StatusCode property of the MembershipCreateUserException that indicates why user creation failed.

Once a membership user has been created and you have a reference to a MembershipUser object for that user, you can modify the settings for that user with the MembershipUser public methods, such as ChangePasswordQuestionAndAnswer for applications where RequiresQuestionAndAnswer is true, or by setting the property values of the MembershipUser object and passing them to the UpdateUser method.

If a user already exists in the data source for the application, you can obtain a MembershipUser object for the existing user with the GetUser method.

The SqlMembershipProvider provides an option to require a unique email address for each user. If the RequiresUniqueEmail property is true, you will need to use one of the CreateUser overloads that allows you to specify an email address for the user being created. Otherwise, a MembershipCreateUserException will be thrown.

Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed from all parameter values.

Applies to

CreateUser(String, String, String)

Adds a new user with a specified email address to the data store.

Remarks

The CreateUser method will return null if password is an empty string or null, username is an empty string or null or contains a comma (,), passwordQuestion is not null and is an empty string, or passwordAnswer is not null and contains an empty string.

Once a membership user has been created and you have a reference to a MembershipUser object for that user, you can modify the settings for that user with the MembershipUser public methods and by setting the property values of the MembershipUser object and then passing the MembershipUser object to the UpdateUser method.

If a user already exists in the data source for the application, you can obtain a MembershipUser object for the existing user with the GetUser method.

Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed from all string parameter values.

Applies to

CreateUser(String, String, String, String, String, Boolean, Object, MembershipCreateStatus)

Adds a new user with specified property values and a unique identifier to the data store and returns a status parameter indicating that the user was successfully created or the reason the user creation failed.

You can specify a unique identifier for the user, such as a primary key value for a database, by using the providerUserKey parameter.

The CreateUser method will return null if password is an empty string or null, username is an empty string or null or contains a comma (,), passwordQuestion is not null and contains an empty string, or passwordAnswer is not null and contains an empty string.
