Invite into groups via links
If you're a group admin, you can invite people to join a group by sharing a link with them. The admin can always revoke the link to make the previous invite link invalid and create a new link.
- Open the WhatsApp group chat, then click the group subject.
- Click Members > Invite to group via link.
- Click Copy link.
- To revoke the current invite link and create a new invite link, click Revoke link > Revoke link. Once an invite link has been revoked, it's not possible to restore the previous invite link.
Note:
Any WhatsApp user you share an invite link with can join the group. Only use this feature with trusted individuals. It’s possible for someone to forward the link to other people, who could then join the group without additional approval from the group admin.
