I think I answered my own question - I'm retrieving a result set with .gql - to update an entity I need to specifically grab it with get_by_id() or get_by_key()...
so for example: profileToUpdate = PROFILES.gql("WHERE user = :1", user) updatedProfile = profileToUpdate[0].key().id() uProfile = PROFILES.get_by_id(updatedProfile) uProfile.name = self.request.get('name2') db.put(uProfile) On Sep 12, 6:53 pm, Larkin2 <michael.mer...@gmail.com> wrote: > uProfile = PROFILES.gql("WHERE user = :1", user) > uProfile[0].name = self.request.get('name2') > db.put(uProfile) > > I've been racking my brain for several hours on this - is there > anything in the code above that would prevent this particular entity > in PROFILES from not being updated?
