Thanks for reaching out to us with this issue.

I did a test with my own freemium tenet and I was able to post a link and a preview was included, so it is meant to be working.

Hello Jason,

do you have an explanation why the URL preview sometimes isn't working?
I have a channel where we post links to TED Talks on a weekly basis. We either insert it directly at the end of our post or sometimes "hide" the link behind a text. Neither option is working right now. I also tried to insert the speech using a YouTube link. There's simply no preview in Teams although it worked a hundred times before. Any ideas what causes this problem?
