1. Parse your json and get the url. 2. Download the image and set the image to imageview — Raghunandan

First you need to parse the JSON.

JSONObject jsonObject = <your-object>;
String image = jsonObject.getString("image");

Now you have the image url as a string in the string object 'image'. You have to load the image in this url to the target imageview. For that you can use Picasso. A clear description of how to use that is mentioned there. You can directly use this string for that purpose as shown below.

Picasso.with(context).load(image).into(imageView);

Parse the image url from json and get the image as bitmap:

URL url = new URL("http://....");
Bitmap image = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(url.openConnection().getInputStream());

Then set the image in imageview as:

imageview.setImageBitmap(image);

Note:use a asynctask to download the image from the url.

Parse your json to get image url. To show image from url best way is to use Picasso library In which you can directly put your image Url and it also help to cache the image.

Read this Documentation for picasso.

Other helpful libraries are:

1) Android-Universal-Image-Loader

2) ion

Or if you want to get bitmap from url then see here
