Remove link-shortening function from our social posts

SOLVE

Hi,

 

We publish our LinkedIn posts via Hubspot.  In our posts, we write content and will refer to some of our blog posts by adding the links to these articles but the links are always shorted to /hubs.li/.  Can this function be removed as we would like to promote our blog by mentioning its full link (with our brand name and the sunject of the article) instead of a shortened URL. 

 

Thank you.

Hi @KathyL,

 

As far as I know this can only be achieved by connecting a Bitly account: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/social/connect-your-bitly-account-to-hubspot

 

"By default, HubSpot's social tool will shorten links in your social post to a hubs.ly link. If you own a branded short domain on Bitly, you can connect your Bitly account to HubSpot."

Hi @KathyL,

 

No, unfortunately, as far as I know, it is not.

Hi Karsten,

 

Thank you for your reply.  However, what we would like is to make the auto link-shortening function optional instead of using a Bitly link.  Is it possible?  Thank you.

 

Regards,

Kathy Lee
