When retrieving the profile picture of a connected social media account via the API, the returned image URL appears to be a resized thumbnail (e.g., 206x206) instead of the highest available resolution provided by the platform.
For example, the URL returned includes parameters such as:
stp=dst-jpg_s206x206which indicates that the image has already been resized by the CDN.
However, when accessing the same profile manually through the platform (e.g., Instagram), the profile picture can be opened in a significantly higher resolution (typically around ~1024px or higher). This suggests that a higher-quality version of the image exists and is publicly accessible.
Since the account is already connected through the official API integration, it would be very useful if the API could return:
the highest available profile picture resolution, or
an additional field such as profilePictureHd / profilePictureOriginal
This would allow developers to store and use higher quality avatars without needing to perform additional scraping or manual extraction.
Providing the highest resolution available from the official API would improve use cases such as:
displaying profile avatars in dashboards
generating social media previews
storing high-quality user profile images
It would be great if this could be added as an optional field or configuration in the API response.
