URL link not clickable

I have connected Facebook to Teams so that when a new post is added to Facebook it is Zapped to a Teams Channel so members of that Channel can share the post. However, the link sent to the Channel is not clickable and need to be copied to share. Is there a way to make it appear on the Teams Channel so it just needs clicking? Also the post image does not show.

Any ideas please?

 

Thank you

Hi @Migsy, try formatting your message via Markdown: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/use-markdown-formatting-in-teams-4d10bd65-55e2-4b2d-a1f3-2bebdcd2c772

Within Channel Messages, this should work

Hi @Migsy 

Markdown can be used for images as well: https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#images

@Migsy, I believe what you mean is the “preview”, right? I don’t know about a way to force enable that from the integration but I would just like @Troy Tessalone suggest you look up the main picture of the Facebook post and include that in the Markdown.
