Answer 1

The graph api returns response which includes images and webp_images and it has image links in all available resolutions.

As per the latest version: v2.12

For profile photo:

/me?fields=photos{picture,images,webp_images}

For specific album:

'album-id'?fields=photos{picture,images,webp_images}

Field details:

photos: array of available photos, this will return json like below:

{
    data: [],
    pagin: []
}

In data object we'll get below fields:

picture: link for a low resolution image might be for the use of thumbnails

images: array of objects for picture image with the different different resolutions in raster format

webp_images: array of objects for picture image with the different different resolutions in webp format

images and web_images object will have data like:

{
    height: number, // 400
    source: 'link for the image with the resolution of height and width specified', //https:....
    width: number //496
}
