Referer support for URL Preview

[gilmanmax]

When I try to go on to a LinkedIn Profile with the URL Preview sometimes I get an "access denied" error. This is because I may get a "Logon" wall when directly trying to view the profile. This gets me a "999" status..

However, if I manually do a call to the site through an API tester and set the referer as a header on a tester such as google.com, then the call works as expected and I receive a "200". Is there a way and put referers or headers into the request? We tried changing the user agent to no avail.

The recently released UrlPreview 1.2.0 has an option to override the user agent; I guess we should add another property to override the referer field, too.

UrlPreview 1.3.0 has been released with a new UrlPreview.Referrer field that may be set to override the default HTTP referer.

The default referer value used when not overridden has also been tweaked and may be more compatible out-of-the-box.
