Get the pictures of the facebook profile album

Question

thank you for your time and help.

I am trying to get all the profile pictures of the current user , but I am getting a weird answer :

{Response: responseCode:200, graphObject: GraphObject{graphObjectClass=GraphObject, state={"data":[]}}, error: null, isFromCache: false}

I have already made the authentification and loaded some other informations successfully.

I have already checked some other similar questions/answers and I didn't find anyone working with fql and the new API of facebook.

The permissions are defined like this:

/**
 * the list of permissions of facebook
 * */
private static final List<String> FACEBOOK_PERMISSION_LIST = Arrays.asList(
        "user_photos", "email", "user_birthday", "basic_info");

The code

String fqlQuery = "SELECT src_big FROM photo WHERE album_object_id IN (SELECT object_id  FROM album WHERE owner = me() AND name='Profile Pictrue' AND type='profile' )";
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("q", fqlQuery);

Session session = Session.getActiveSession();
Request request = new Request(session, "/fql",
                        params, HttpMethod.GET,
                        new Request.Callback() {
                                public void onCompleted(
                                    Response response) {
                                        Log.i(TAG, "Got results: "
                                                + response.toString());
                                    }
                                });
                        Request.executeBatchAsync(request);

I hope you can help me, every suggestion is welcome.

Answer 1

There's a typo in name='Profile Pictrue'; it's name='Profile Pictures'

(But the thing is that you dont need to check for this name, type=profile is just enough.)

So your final query should be:

SELECT src_big
FROM photo
WHERE album_object_id IN (
    SELECT object_id 
    FROM album
    WHERE owner = me() 
    AND type='profile'
)

or better (because it was not possible to query by type for me):

String fqlQuery = "SELECT src_big FROM photo WHERE album_object_id IN (SELECT object_id  FROM album WHERE owner = me()  AND (type='profile' OR name='Profile Pictures'))";

And adding some parameters to the request, which will look like this:

Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("q", fqlQuery);
params.putString("format", "json");
params.putString("query", fqlQuery);
params.putString("access_token", fbAccessToken);
Session session = Session.getActiveSession();
Request request = new Request(session, "/fql", params, HttpMethod.GET, new Request.Callback() {
    public void onCompleted(Response response) {
        Log.i(TAG, "Got results: " + response.toString());
    }
});
Request.executeBatchAsync(request);
