@sivapuvvada I dont think there is a way other than the regular Menu. Even the REST API for User Preferences/Settings has only GET not POST.

Since this modifies user-prefs.conf file under $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/{userRole}/user-prefs/local, there may be a way though for you to code update to configuration by logged in user (however, would look like a lot of code and security flaw to me). So in case you do find out a way to do this securely, update it here.
