SUMMARY
***
According to https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/konsole/konsole/scripting.html, we should be able to manage some aspects of konsole from the commandline. One thing I've been trying to accomplish is profile switching. Say I have a profile named Foobar.profile, I can't switch the current session profile using:

```
qdbus $KONSOLE_DBUS_SERVICE $KONSOLE_DBUS_SESSION org.kde.konsole.Session.setProfile Foobar
```

The only thing the above does is to changes the profile for yakuake.
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a profile in konsole called Foobar
2. Type the command qdbus $KONSOLE_DBUS_SERVICE $KONSOLE_DBUS_SESSION org.kde.konsole.Session.setProfile Foobar
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
No changes in the current konsole session

EXPECTED RESULT
Konsole session should switch to the new profile

It seems you're right. I can confirm it's working for me as well.

I tested on 24.02.0

Is this still an issue?  If so, can you verify that your new profile shows up in 'qdbus $KONSOLE_DBUS_SERVICE /Windows/1 profileList' ?  

also you can shorten the command to 'qdbus $KONSOLE_DBUS_SERVICE $KONSOLE_DBUS_SESSION setProfile Base'
