Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hi,

I created an application showing up the profile pic of employees.

The image property is the following:

If(Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata(ThisItem.Id).HasPhoto,Office365Users.UserPhoto(Id),profile)

For entries having a profile picture everything's fine. If a user has no photo the default image "profile" is being displayed.

However I see the little error mark saying:

When I view the app within the browser I don't see the red error bar on top.

But when launching the app on a mobile device/iPad I get an error for each user without a profile picture (but the placeholder picture is being displayed)

Hi @stefansc,

To display Office 365 profile pictures without throwing errors, you need to do several checks ahead of time.

Check to see if the user has an Id
Check to see if the user is an external user by inspecting the domain for their email account
Check to see if the user has a profile picture
If any of the checks fail, display a placeholder image
If all of the checks pass, call Office365Users.UserPhoto to return the photo and display it

Please use below formula instead:

If(
 IsBlank(ThisItem.Id),
 'profilepic-generic-user',
 If(
 Not(UserDomain.Text = MyDomain),
 'profilepic-generic-user',
 (
 If(
 Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata(ThisItem.Id).HasPhoto = true,
 Office365Users.UserPhoto(ThisItem.Id),
 'profilepic-generic-user')
 )
 )
 )
