sharepoint user profile properties Client Web Part

Question

im trying to get user profile picture in my Cilent Web Part but I get a error massage (_spPageContextInfo is undefined).

I'm useing REST API

jQuery(document).ready(function () {
            GetCurrentUser();

            function GetCurrentUser() {
                $.ajax({
                    url: _spPageContextInfo.siteAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager/GetMyProperties?$select=PictureUrl",
                    type: "GET",
                    headers: {
                        "accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
                    },
                    success: function (data) {
                        var userName = data.d.DisplayName;
                        var picUrl = data.d.PictureUrl;
                        $('#bild').attr('src', picUrl);
                    },
                    error: function (error) {
                        alert(JSON.stringify(error));
                    }
                });
            }
        });

are there other ways to solve it ? would be appreciated if you could help me solve it

Answer 1

Surround GetCurrentUser call with ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded to ensure _spPageContextInfo exists before you use it. You should be able to have the actual function code outside ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded for clarity.

ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(function ()
{
    GetCurrentUser();
}, "sp.js");
