Question

Hi I know how to fetch an string from jsonobject, but my question is how to fetch an image from Rest api and display it. The image is stored as profile_image in jsonobject

If your image data in "profile_image" is Base64 encoded string then you can convert to bitmap by following.

if(object.has("profile_image")) 
{
     byte[] decodedString = Base64.decode(object.getString("profile_image", Base64.DEFAULT);
     Bitmap decodedByte = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(decodedString, 0, decodedString.length); 
}
