# com.bea.p13n.usermgmt.profile.taglib
GetPropertyTag Class

public class GetPropertyTag
extends `PropertyTag`

Corresponds to `<profile:getProperty>`.

The `<profile:getProperty>` tag retrieves the property value for a specified property set-property name pair. The tag has no enclosed body. The value returned is a `java.lang.Object`. In typical cases, this tag is used after the `GetProfileTag``` tag is invoked to retrieve a profile for session use. The property to be retrieved is retrieved from the session profile. If the `GetProfileTag``` tag has not been used upon invoking the `<profile:getProperty>` tag, the specified property value is retrieved from the Anonymous User Profile. See the User Management documentation for more information.

Tag Attribute | Required | Type | Description
propertySet | no | String | The Property Set from which the property's value is to be retrieved. Example: "Demo Portal" Note: If no property set is provided, the property is retrieved from the profile's default (unscoped) properties.
propertyName | yes | String | The name of the property to be retrieved. Example: "background_color"
id | no | String | If the `id` attribute is supplied, the value of the retrieved property will be available in the variable name to which id is assigned. Otherwise, the value of the property is inlined into the JSP page.
