Figma link previews in Slack

For a long time, when pasting a Figma link in slack you would get a preview of the design project.

It wasn’t great because even if you pasted a link to a specific frame in Figma, the preview in Slack displayed a preview of the entire project. So usually I ended up deleting the preview, because it was messy and pointless.

Then! A miracle!

Just the other day (week?) Figma link previews in Slack worked better, and displayed a preview of the specific frame, which made it 1000% more useful.

Then! Tragedy.

As quickly as it appeared, the entire Figma link preview feature in Slack has gone away (for me at least). I don’t think there’s any integration on the Slack side that could be missing or misconfigured, so my guess is there’s something different about what Figma returns when Slack queries the link.

Are Slack link previews working for others?

Hi ​@Tom_Coggia 

 

Thanks for flagging this issue. Are you still experiencing it? I checked on my end, and the preview in Slack seems to be working fine. It appears to work in public channels but not in DMs. Could you confirm if you're sharing the link in a public channel or in a DM? I'm also checking with the team to see if this behavior is intended.

 

Thanks!

Toku
