I created a template using templatedata and used it in my user profile page, unfortunately the page i created doesnt show the values I used for the template.

I'm afraid there is not much we can do without knowing anything. Which wiki? Which profile page? Which template? I can only suspect that the template doesn't actually accept the parameters, despite the TemplateData documentation saying otherwise.
ok in my Template:Infobox person:
<templatedata>
{
"description": "A template to gather user information for user profile page",
"params": {
"User": {
"label": "Full Name",
"description": "User first and last name",
"type": "string",
"required": true
},
"Department": {
"label": "Department",
"description": "The department in which user currently work",
"type": "string",
"required": true
},
"Unit": {
"label": "Unit",
"description": "The unit in which a user is attached to",
"type": "string",
"required": true
}
}
}
</templatedata> and in my User:Admin I am calling the template Infobox person and specified the values. but the same chart that generated from the template data is generating on the Admin page.

As said, I don't really know how I can help. Who is "User:Admin"? What "chart"? What is "generated", and where? Which wiki is this about?
TemplateData doesn't "generate" anything. It's just documentation. A template that contains nothing but documentation doesn't do anything.
