I am trying to update a user's description in our ArcGIS Portal instance but the below code is giving me an HTTP 404 error:
from arcgis.gis import GIS
gis = GIS("my_portal_url", "my_user", "my_password")
user = gis.users.get(username="chris.buckmaster")
user.update(description="Chris's Bio")
The error I receive is as follows:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I can connect fine to the Portal and have been able to extract data out and produce reports etc so I am wondering why I might be receiving this error? I am using v1.6 of the ArcGIS Python API and Portal v10.6.
I am connecting as an administrator account so have full privileges.
Thanks
