Hi we use Google Hangouts Chat at work. We like seeing link previews, but if we link to an internal resource protected by gsuite autherization, the link preview is just a box telling the bot to sign in. Is there a way of avoiding this?

  • So you are trying to share a file that can only be access by people in your organisation with a bot? – jds1993 Oct 11 '19 at 13:36

    I am sharing a link that is protected by login. So I don't want the login challenge to be displayed. Most links are like this. It just clutters the interface. I want it to show nothing. Just leave the URL in text form and don't try to preview anything. It's a Google login challenge, so surely chat can figure out a way of detecting it and make a decision based on it. – Tom Larkworthy Oct 12 '19 at 16:21

    I would just like a simple "Link Previews" on/off switch in settings. I don't need to see any link previews. Another annoying side effect of link previews is the screen jumps as the preview is fetch and makes continuity while scrolling impossible. – Be Kind To New Users Jul 06 '21 at 12:33
