How to disable link preview in Slack messages for JIRA issue URL's with JIRA Cloud installed?

[Mark Dauscher]

I want to disable link preview in Slack messages for JIRA issue URL's.

Before JIRA Cloud, JIRA Issue URLs did not unfurl when pasted into a Slack message.

With JIRA Cloud, unfurling now happens in all of our Slack channels when pasting a URL into a Slack message.

Is it possible to disable unfurling JIRA Issue URL's only with JIRA Cloud installed?

Hey @Mark Dauscher 

You can disable previews when you're sending a URL by using the command "/jira previews".

You can disable all URL previews across Slack and all apps in the Slack client settings.

Hope that helps!

Much appreciated Tony! Thank you

Hi @Tony Knopp, this does not work for Private Slack Channels & Group Conversations. I am running into "Unexpected error. Please try again". Any advice here? Thanks

To solve this I had to add the Jira app to the channel and then I could access the `/jira previews` command
