How can I stop Jira from popping up in Teams

[Robert Webster]

I'm using Teams to communicate to people about Jira cards. EVERY TIME I include a link, I'm prompted to sign in to Jira. I don't want to sign in to Jira. Is there any way to stop this from popping up?

Do you mean the preview?

That isn't a setting that can be changed in Jira; if it's possible to turn off it would be on the Teams admin side. I get the same kind of alert when pasting a link to a google doc, a facebook post, or pretty much any other site.

To clarify, only a Teams admin can do that, and it would apply to the entire org, not just a single user who doesn't want previews.

The Jira Cloud App had 2 options previously, full rich card preview and a short URL preview.

And there was an option to remove, like the Cross button in @Esther Strom's screenshot.

Now, since last week, default is Full Card Preview and there's no Remove option or any options actually.

This is actually terrible. The Jira integration with new Teams seems to have been forgotten by Atlassian. It has many issues, and the inability to close these dumb cards (which do not even display properly) has driven us to just remove this app from Teams. Hopefully Atlassian fixes it so it this app is actually usable.
