Guidance needed for setting user profile picture

Hey there, I could use a hand with something in the app I'm working on. Here, users can upload profile pictures, and I've set up a database ('userDatabase') to store userId ($id) and profileId (id of profile picture). The actual images are in a bucket called 'userBucket.'

The process to fetch the image feels a bit convoluted. We first get the profile picture ID from 'userDatabase' and then fetch the image. Also, .getFilePreview sometimes returns a URL even if the file doesn't exist, which messes things up.

Any ideas on simplifying this process or fixing the .getFilePreview issue? Thanks in advance!

TL;DR

Developers need help simplifying the process of setting user profile pictures as the current method involves fetching the image using profile picture IDs stored in 'userDatabase' and encountering issues with .getFilePreview returning URLs even if the file doesn't exist. One suggestion is to use the get file API call to ensure the file exists. If users can change their profile pictures, the current approach seems appropriate.
