Delve show profile img bt PictureUrl property is Null? Why?

Aakash Maurya

I have to display all SharePoint Online user's profile information including profile picture on a page in SharePoint Online.

Here profile pictures are added in Azure Active Directory.

As mentioned http://blog.atwork.at/post/2014/06/14/SharePoint-Online-UserProfiles-and-the-story-about-synchronizing-with-Azure-Active-Directory, `PictureUrl` property does not synchronize with Azure Active Directory.

But, When I open up the delv of user, the profile picture shown there, but when I try to fetch the user profile using REST API, `PictureUrl` propery is always null?

PictureUrl property:

Any reason behind this?

Delve takes some time to display updated data, was it the case that you just uploaded profile picture and were looking for it immediately?

can you say which API endpoint were you using?

FYI, everything is now available thru the MS Graph API, please have a look at it here:
