Question by Hamza Lazaar · May 21, 2017 at 05:18 PM · apisPlayer DataAccount Management

AvatarUrl hidden limit: ImageUrl cannot exceed 200 characters

Today I decided to migrate from a workaround I was using to the AvatarUrl feature.

I stumbled upon this error/limitation of 200 characters per URL.

"UpdateAvatarUrl: error InvalidParams message Invalid input parameters details {ImageUrl:[ImageUrl cannot exceed 200 characters]}"

Please update the API doc page.

And can you make the limit more flexible, some facebook profile picture URLs are longer than 200 characters, I have at least one failing with 201 characters!

We've been reviewing the auto-generator for the docs, as we do need to ensure that we're pulling in the min/max lengths from there, across the board - we'll make sure that's in-scope for our updates to the docs.

We can look into the possibility of making it longer, but can you give me some example URLs? My own Facebook profile pic URL is only 60 characters long - and it's only that long because I have the "?type=large" specifier.
