How to enable link unfurling for custom URL's in the ServiceNow for Slack app

Hi all, 

I've connected the slack marketplace app "ServiceNow for Slack" and connected it to our instance, which we use a custom URL for. 

If I connect the app to our service-now.com domain, link unfurling works when you paste a service-now.com URL into a slack chat (say an incident or task). 

If I connect the app to our custom url, the link unfurling doesn't work when someone pastes a custom URL ticket link. Looking online this seems to be a limitation as obviously servicenow can only allow the service-now.com domain on their slack marketplace app. Wondered if anyone has worked around this somehow? 

Feels like the only solution is to have a custom slack app, and then have to build a scripted REST API that can receive the slack events and send back the ticket preview to slack. 

Appreciate the help as always
