Hi Ben,
Can you try dumping the error that is returned by the request? Try doing
something like this:
function loadFriend(friendId) {
var req = opensocial.newDataRequest();
req.add(req.newFetchPersonAppDataRequest(friendId), 'friend');
req.send(respondToFriend);
};
function respondToFriend(data) {
if (data.get('friend').hadError()) {
alert(data.get('friend').getErrorMessage());
}
var friend = data.get('friend').getData();
var thumb = friend.getField(opensocial.Person.Field.THUMBNAIL_URL);
html = new Array();
html.push('<img src="' + thumb + '" />');
_gel('friend_profile').innerHTML = html;
};
loadFriend("101671739618776309584");
Note that the ID has to be a string, not a number. When I run the above
code, I get the message: "unsupported id: 101671739618776309584"
