POST relation in strapi

I have a strapi project and A single users have relation a single profile. For example if we using postman to get a single user it have response

[
{
    "id": 45,
    "username": "test",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "provider": "local",
    "confirmed": true,
    "blocked": false,
    "createdAt": "2022-07-18T08:50:43.642Z",
    "updatedAt": "2022-07-18T08:50:43.642Z",
    "profile": null
}

] As you can see a user have a profile but have a null value. So when I tried to post a profile in strapi api http://localhost:1337/api/profiles?populate=* with body of json like this

{
"data" : {
"name": "fgh",
"address": "jksdjkdjs",
"phone": "345345",
"email" : "[email protected]" /// I tried to add this but the response is 500 internal server error
}}

It worked and status 200 ok but it didn't get the relation of the email from user

{
"data": {
    "id": 12,
    "attributes": {
        "name": "fghdff",
        "address": "jksdjkdjs",
        "phone": 34534235,
        "createdAt": "2022-08-05T13:48:29.548Z",
        "updatedAt": "2022-08-05T13:48:29.548Z",
        "publishedAt": "2022-08-05T13:48:29.547Z",
        "email": {
            "data": null
        }
    }
},
"meta": {}}

Any Idea how to post a relation in strapi? I tried to read docs or strapi forum but no one counter this problem

For someone facing how to POST relation in strapi we can use the ID of the User. For example to post and connect in my question is

{   
"data" : {
    "name": "dayee",
    "address": "jksdjkdjs",
    "phone": "34534235",
    "email" : 77 // Post relation using ID
}}
