I can't load images from Graph Facebook

Question

url: https://graph.facebook.com/100779423975829/picture?type=large;

other url with type normal: https://graph.facebook.com/100779423975829/picture?type=normal

Answer 1

Yes, the redirections from http:// to https:// protocols hinders the downloading using Picasso,Glide ets. You may go ahead with following two approaches:

1. SimpleDraweeView from Facebook Sdk. It handles the redirection internally.

2. Make a graph request to fetch the re-directed url like below and use that url in picasso.

   new GraphRequest(AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(), "/"+fbUserId+"/picture?width="+width+"&height="+height+"&redirect=false", null, HttpMethod.GET, new GraphRequest.Callback() { public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {

                       try {
                           String url = response.getJSONObject().getJSONObject("data").getString("url");
                           loadFacebookProfilePicInImageView(url);
                       } catch (Exception e) {
                           e.printStackTrace();
                       }
   
                   }
               }
       ).executeAsync();
