Images uploaded on the User page don’t have a file ID and can’t be used as the fileId.\n\nTo upload a binary file as the user photo, you must send it in a multipart/form-data message. For information about how to create the multipart/form-data message, see Uploading Binary Files.\n\nTo display user profile photos in a feed, cache the user photos. Then use the photoVersionId property of the Photo response body to determine when you need to update a photo. This technique helps you avoid running over limits and may improve mobile client performance."
