I am using Microsoft Graph API to get data and also using "https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/me/" API to get further data. But is there anyway I can fetch user's profile picture from any endpoint?

    Yes, you can fetch it via the Graph API? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/profilephoto-get?view=graph-rest-1.0

    Also via PowerShell and the Get-AzureADUserThumbnailPhoto cmdlet, or Get-UserPhoto if you are using Exchange Online.

    @Narayan, Sachindra , you can use the following Graph API to pull the profile picture for yourself or for any other user:

    For any User: GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/photo

    For the user account under whose context they have fetched the token: GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/photo/$value

    Please refer to the screenshot below:

    You might would like to take a look at the following Graph API documentation which might solve the purpose: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/profilephoto-get?view=graph-rest-1.0

    Hope this helps.
