Issues with shared assets in messenger's browser
Hey. Today i took some photos with my friends and wanted to share it for them. It shared just fine and enabled the option to download by public user. However one of my friends wanted to download it by just clicking the link in our Meta's messenger group so Immich would open in messenger's built-in browser.
When he clicked the download button and it actually completed the packing of the assets, it wrote "The page could not be loaded" error toast at the bottom of the screen. Note that the toast was displayed by messenger itself.
I also got the error message in Immich server container:
It was displayed as soon as i opened the link in my phone from that messenger group.

Hm I think this is a bug as we haven't made it to work with downloading from the mobile browser as zip file
but did he able to download the file though?
No. I tried the same and went through the exactly same error. Of course, nothing downloaded. That's probably because of redirecting to direct download link that messenger can't process
Should i make a bug report on github? @Alex
If you download from the browser that is not embedded from another app. Like Chrome, does it work?
It downloaded just fine on chrome
so it's the issue with embeded browsers
most probably
I don't think we have control over this
alright. Could it eventuelly be done one day or it's only up to that embeded browser?
sounds like up to that embedded browser's engine
Alright, thank you, may i close this thread?
