Dev channel update to 87.0.644.4 is live
Michael Jones does pasting them anywhere else exhibit the same behavior, or is it just Slack that's not getting them pasted correctly? Also, is it only that source, or can you also get other links to paste incorrectly into Slack? Figuring out how widespread this is would really help.
josh_bodnerAt this point I'm only seeing it when pasting URL's from JIRA or Confluence into Slack. If I paste the same URL into say a Word document or an Outlook e-mail I don't seem to have an issue. Other URL's don't seem to have the same problem in Slack that I can tell, but that may also be related to Slack's 'preview' feature where they are pulling the highlights of the link. I submitted a bug report on the previous beta for this one. Haven't repeated it for this version. Let me know if doing so would help.
Michael Jones Your existing bug should be fine. We've previously made a fix specifically for Slack not treating these links properly, but it looks like we only fixed some of the causes, so I'll let the people who fixed it know.
josh_bodner Thanks. In the current build, it appears to be corrected for at least the Atlassian ones I paste into Slack a lot. I saw it on a few others but it was pretty random. Will shout if I run into it again someplace noteworthy.
Michael Jones Well, that didn't take long. 🙂 Atlassian stuff is working on the paste into Slack, but I ran into some other internal sites at work that didn't paste correctly either.
