Manifest.permission.READ_PROFILE not found

问题:

While working on an Android application I am required to grant permission for reading/writing for contacts and profile. I found Android manifest file have possible permissions like,

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PROFILE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_PROFILE"/>

And I am able to show request runtime permission for Contacts i.e.,

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
        new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS},
        MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS);

However when I put below code, It says READ_PROFILE is not found.

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
        new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_PROFILE},
        MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_PROFILE);

How can I request runtime permission for reading/writing profile. I am using,

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT, ContactsContract.Profile.CONTENT_URI);
MainActivity.this.startActivity(intent);

But after editing profile info, when I save it does not update the profile rather shows a toast like,

Nothing to save. Contact discarded

Is it a permission issue? How can I update profile info successfully?

READ_PROFILE permission was removed on API 23 as stated here:

Use GET_ACCOUNTS instead.
