Why arent my links pulling through to Preview Generator?

RhiannonDavies

Usually when I insert a link it comes up with an image, title and snippet, but since yesterday afternoon it is only coming up with Check out this link,  with none of the above information. This is also happening for a colleague on the same account. Why is this? I cant post anything out when its like this

Same thing is happening to me as well and another person I know. It's been going on for several days now. It happens to almost every link I try to share and is affecting my business greatly.

Same thing is happening to me as well.  Even though the links were not pulling through properly it was still posting them correctly but now it wont post them properly either.  It has no picture attached to the post anymore and just says check out this link.

I began having the exact same problem yesterday. All links for all social networks are resulting in "check out this link" when I try to publish through Hootsuite. I need this corrected ASAP. We are a marketing agency that manages the social media for multiple clients.

Having the same issue started yesterday.

Add me to the list of Hootsuite users with this problem. Hootsuite is basically useless right now, which is unfortunate given I rely on it to maintain all social media for my business.

same problem, please help!
