# Social sharing - Clear link preview cache

If you already update the Social sharing's preview information yet the description and images do not change accordingly, it is suggested to reset the cached images/data for your pages on the social networks.

This document will walk you through the steps on how to clear the link preview cache for Facebook and Linkedin. 

## Facebook 

1. First of all, please visit <https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/sharing/>
2. Enter your **URL** and click on **Debug**&#x20;

After debugging, it will show the details of what exactly Facebook sees for that URL - the title, description, link and post preview.&#x20;

3\. Click on **Scrape again** to force Facebook to update your new information&#x20;

4\. After that, Facebook will recrawl your page. Kindly try sharing your URL on Facebook again to see if the information is up-to-date now.&#x20;

## LinkedIn

Just for your information, Linkedin stores the cached data for 7 days after a post is shared. Therefore, please reset the cache using LinkedIn Post Inspector.&#x20;

1. Kindly visit <https://www.linkedin.com/post-inspector/inspect/>
2. Enter your **URL** and click on **Inspect**. You will then be able to see the updated preview image and information.&#x20;
