Update the email address in the meteor user profile

I have created a user profile using simple schema and collection2. If the name or email address is updated I want to update the meteor user profile. When I try to set the email address in the meteor user profile it won't update. This is the offending line:

Meteor.users.update(Meteor.userId(), {$set: {emails[0].address: pDetails.contactDetails.email}});

Can anyone show me how to update the meteor user profile?

Thank you.

You need to select the array element based on the previous email address value in your selector.

Meteor.users.update({ _id: Meteor.userId(), 'emails.address': oldAddress },
 { $set: { 'emails.0.address': newAddress }});

You may have to set the verified field to false at the same time if the new email address is not verified. Then send the email verification email.

This also worked:

Meteor.users.update(Meteor.userId(), {$set: {'emails.0.address': pDetails.contactDetails.email, 'profile.name': pDetails.contactDetails.firstName}});
