Getting Player's Thumbnail

Hello,

Currently, I am experimenting a bit and I am working with something where I generate random users (by UserId) and displaying them as a thumbnail using Players:GetUserThumbnailAsync().

My concern is that sometimes, on particular users, the thumbnail displayed is one like the one shown below:
image
or sometimes a generic Roblox Thumbnail…

Please note that while generating the users, I am filtering them using APIs in order to prevent generating terminated or inactive users.

Solutions I have tried were making use of the returned Boolean shown on the DevAPI which returns whether the image is ready to be used or not, however this is returned as ‘true’ even when the thumbnail is as shown above.

Anyone can come up with another solution or is this something from Roblox’s side which I cannot prevent?

This is from Roblox’s end. There’s nothing you can do.
