Facebook : How to force facebook to scrape latest URL link data?
Problem :
When you try to put URL link on a Facebook input boxes and Facebook will automatically scrape a "preview" data from the link.
However, there are times when you want Facebook to "refresh" the preview of the link due to some correction on your blog(the link to your blog) or somehow the first scraped version is not perfect.
So, how to force Facebook to update their cache data of your link by scraping the latest from your link?
Solution :
- Go to the Facebook URL Linter/ object debugger tool : https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/
Then copy-and-paste the link you want to force Facebook to refresh the cache data into the
Input URL
box.Press the "Fetch new scrape information" button.
