How to get only real contact photos from the Google People API? In general, there are photos for all contact, but many only with a colorized character. Real photos are for me the ones from user profiles or which I added manually in Google contacts.
Only use photos with person.photos.default == false. See https://developers.google.com/people/api/rest/v1/people#photo

I want to write an app that fetches a random photo from my Google Photos set of photos using the Google Photos API. This is the new Google Photos, not the old one that was linked to a Google Drive.
In my review of the API Docs, it seems that you can list albums, and perhaps list what the albums contain, but it's not obvious to me how to download a photo itself. Can anyone figure it out?
Try with this API: https://developers.google.com/photos/library/reference/rest/v1/mediaItems/list
It lets you list the photos from your library and returns two parameters, productUrl and baseUrl, that you could use to get the photo.
We can choose cat photos taken in a location in the google photos app, but I wonder if there is any API for that?
I did some search and people suggested we can use the old google+ API for upload, but I'm looking into getting a list of photos that match the search.
Or, perhaps to get a list of photos in a given public photo albums?
I'm in the draft stage of designing a charity site for a friend of mine, and we'd like to be able to display photos of people who donate (they would have the choice of turning their photo on or off).
I'm used to logging people into another app of mine via Facebook, and retrieving their basic data.
What I'm wondering is - since the person viewing the site would be the only one logged into it, is it even possible to display photos of Facebook users who have donated ie can you retrieve a FB user photo if they aren't logged in?
If not, are you allowed, with the user's permission, to store their Facebook photo?
Thanks for your time and help.
Have a look at
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.2/user/picture/
It's stating
Because profile pictures are always public on Facebook, this call does not require any access token.
This means as long as you requested the public_profile permission upon Facebook Login, and stored the app-scoped user_id in your database somewhere, you can use this app-scoped user_id to generate the profile picture image sources as follows:
<img src="https://graph.facebook.com/{app_scoped_user_id}/picture?type=large&redirect=true"/>
and replace {app_scoped_user_id} by the real app-scoped user_ids in some kind of loop.
I can't find out how to get the content displayed on a users profile from the Facebook API. It's easy to get all statuses or so but then the photos isn't included...
I simply want to get all posts (including photos, check-ins etc.) that is shown on a user's profile on facebook.com and I want them in the same order.
I assume this is possible to do through the API, would seem strange to me otherwise, so I'm wondering; how is this done?
i've noticed that there are some photos that doesn't appear in any albums. This photos are published by fan on a facebook page.
Is there any way to get this photos by the API ?
The API call /feed returns all the posts of the wall, but many of this photo that i seen in the wall on browser doesn't appear in the response of the API.
Any idea ?
Try using below
https://graph.facebook.com/<YOUR_PAGE_NAME>/picture
Hope this help

I use
graph.facebook.com/PAGEID/photos
Permissions Needed: user_photo_video_tags or friends_photo_video_tags.
refer to: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/user/ user photos
http://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/?method=GET&path=me%2Fphotos
I have a live example of this usage is you wish to test. it is an iframe plugin that feeds the photos for a page. "is not set up for users".
Just replace "anotherfeed" page user name with any page.
