Facebook Pages - create post defaulting to "get messages" call to action rather than included URL

Need help
1

I have two basic flows:

  • One creates a Facebook Pages post for my page when I publish a new video on YouTube
  • One creates a Facebook Pages post with data from email, which also includes a link to a page on my website

The similarity for both instances is that both flows include a link - both of which work correctly when I am viewing my Facebook page as that specific page itself.

For anyone else, when they click on the post link preview, it opens a new chat window with my Page rather than visiting the URL.

I have searched Facebook / Meta help on globally disabling this feature because I can’t imagine I’d ever use that feature instead of clicking the URL shared, but have had 0 luck.

One option is to disable messaging for the entire page, but I want to be able to receive messages (just not on URL posts), and disabling messages “hides” every single post ever made that has this feature.

I’m very new to Activepieces - I’m trying to figure out if this is either a problem with the way the piece itself works, or if I have my API configured incorrectly, or if it’s something else. As far as I can tell, the Facebook Pages piece has no such options anywhere like adding the “get messages” call to action to a post.

I’ve included the JSON below with the API ID and access token redacted.

Thank you in advance.
