Get user photo using Office365 REST API

I am using the Office365 REST API to get my contact information , but I noticed that there is no user profile picture information in the response.
I suppose I need to find another way, but I couldn't figure out how. Any suggestion?

The REST API does not currently support contact photos or user profile photos. We are working to add this shortly. Follow our blog or follow me at @JasonJohMSFT) for announcements on new features.



UPDATE: The UI UI is now in preview: https://msdn.microsoft.com/office/office365/APi/photo-rest-operations

Thank you for your interest in the Office 365 API! We do not support fetching a user image yet, but it is in the works. Stay tuned for updates from http://blogs.office.com/dev/ when this feature is ready.

In the meantime, you can use our Exchange Web Services SOAP API to get a user image. See here for details . Let me know if you have questions or need more information.



Thank,

Venkat

I think you will waste your time because there is no image property returned by the bu graph api. I have already checked it.

Update 2017: There is now a REST way to get both of these photos:

Contact: https://msdn.microsoft.com/office/office365/api/contacts-rest-operations#get-contact-photo-and-metadata

User: https://msdn.microsoft.com/office/office365/APi/photo-rest-operations#get-photo
