Yes. I did that via a plugin that I wrote. All is working fine and I am able to access the attribute via the /users/{username}.json endpoint.

I do not know on how to begin writing the endpoint to modify that attribute.  
Do I need to add a new route and a controller for that route ?

Will this do it ?

Or is there something that I am missing ?
