Invite into groups via links

  1. Open the WhatsApp group chat, then click the group subject.
    • Alternatively, click

    • If sending through WhatsApp, search for or select contacts, then click Send.
    • To reset the link, click Reset link > RESET 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.
