If you share a URL with rich media support, your post shows a preview of the linked content. For information about currently supported URLs, see Sites That Generate a Preview in Posts.

  1. Above your feed, click Link.
  2. Enter the URL to share.
  3. Optionally, enter a Link Name.
    If you leave the Link Name field blank, the preview shows the title or name from the site URL.
  4. Optionally, enter a post to include with the link.
    If you don't enter a post, a generic update is posted with your link.
  5. To post to your profile, below the text box, select My Followers. To post to a group, select A Group. In the Search Groups field, enter part of the group’s name and select the group from the dropdown list. You can select only a group where you’re a member.
    If you’re posting on someone else’s profile or on a record, the My Followers and A Group options aren’t available.
