There are two best Open Graph checker tools to validate your Open Graph tags:

1. OpenGraphDebug

OpenGraphDebug.com is the best Open Graph checker tool. It is a free online tool that allows you to validate your Open Graph tags and preview how social platforms will render your URL:

OpenGraphDebug.com

It also has a favicon checker to validate your favicon and app icons are set up the right way and a lot of resources about Open Graph tags and how to optimize them for social media.

2. OG Validator by OpenGraphExamples

OpenGraphExamples is the best OG example image library on the Internet.

It also has a simple OG tags validator:

OpenGraphExamples Debugger

3. Meta (Facebook) Sharing Debugger

Meta (Facebook) Sharing Debugger is an official Open Graph inspector tool by Meta (Facebook). It shows exactly what Facebook sees when it scrapes your page and lets you force a re-scrape when things go wrong.

Meta (Facebook) Sharing Debugger

Best for: Facebook preview accuracy

What it does well

  • Shows exactly what Facebook scrapes
  • Lets you force a re-scrape (critical)
  • Surfaces image size and accessibility errors

Limitations

  • Facebook-only
  • Aggressive caching can still mislead you
  • No cross-platform view

Use it when Facebook previews are broken or images refuse to update. For cross-platform validation, use our OG tags validator.

4. X/Twitter Card Validator

X doesn't support the ability to preview social media cards anymore. However, you can X Post Composer to preview your X/Twitter Cards:

X Post Composer

But if it doesn't display your card correctly, it doesn't show reasons and all the reasons why your card is not displayed correctly.

Prefer to use our OG tags checker instead if you want to validate/preview your your X/Twitter Cards.
