Link Preview API causing temp error

Hi there,

I’m using Link Preview to display link image, title etc in a user’s post. I have a URL input that is used to generate the preview, and the user then clicks “Post” is execute the workflow to make a post. For some reason, if I leave the URL input blank, the workflow encounters a temporary bug. But when I remove the field from the workflow where I am capturing the API content, the workflow executes perfectly and the post is made.

Here’s what the workflow looks link:

Any ideas?

Thank you!
