Question

LinkedIn error: The "Preview URL" field can't be blank if the Image, Title, or Description fields have a value.

I have a problem with an integration from Facebook page to LinkedIn page. The error I get is:

 

Step 2. Create Company Update in LinkedIn

This LinkedIn step hit an error.

Error message: The "Preview - URL" field cannot be blank if the Image, Title, or Description fields have a value. Please enter a value for the "Preview - URL" field.

This is what I have for the mappings… I am not sure what I am doing wrong here. Help is appreciated.

Hi @tknman0700 

Are you getting that error when testing the Zap step manually while you are configuring the Zap OR when the Zap is on in a Zap Run?

I get the error when I run it either by hand or when it runs automated.

The trigger is new post by you in facebook page

The error is: 

Error message: The "Preview - URL" field cannot be blank if the Image, Title, or Description fields have a value. Please enter a value for the "Preview - URL" field.

Im not sure how to fix this - I have it mapped to the FB Link. My intent is to take the user to the post on Facebook, but in this case it failed for some reason and I have no idea why.
