This is the reply I received from Linkedin after I questioned them on the need to encode the url:
In order to pull that image and place it in the preview window when your URL is shared on LinkedIn, we need to encode that URL using a media service called Vector. We do this for every image and there is no way around this process. When we encode your URL, this is what we receive - https://images.prismic.io/something/1b15a138-d650-44dc-96d4-b4f7e173fd18_Best%2BTools.png?auto=compress,format
This is not a bug, this is the same process we use for every URL that is shared with an image. The member's URL is not encoding properly and is providing us with the wrong encoded URL and we receive an error - https://images.prismic.io/something/1b15a138-d650-44dc-96d4-b4f7e173fd18_Best%2BTools.png?auto=compress,format
You will need to speak with your web developer to have them take a look and see why your URL cannot be encoded properly. We are not able to fix that on our end. Unfortunately, we do not have any workarounds we can provide for you for this. So if you are not able to speak with your web developer to take a look and make changes, we just are not able to pull the image. We also cannot manually add an image to your post on your behalf.
