One of the novelties brought by the latest updates of Whatsapp,is the possibility of sharing group links. This means that we can make a group known to people outside our contacts.
This is ideal, for example, when setting up an event. You can pass a group link to your contacts so they can share it with their friends, family and acquaintances. This will make that group accessible to everyone who is interested.
For example. I want to throw a party for my brother and I want to gather all his friends.Obviously I don't have the number of all of them, but I do have the number of some. To those friends I can pass the link of a group created for the occasion. They will be in charge of sending said link to the other friends who want to participate in the surprise and enter the group created by me.
A less aggressive and simple way to create groups with people you don't have in your contacts.
Also, the links of these public groups can be shared in forums and websites to create thematic groups. This will cause your number to be shared with the people who enter it. We do not recommend this practice. How Whatsapp alerts « share the link only with your trusted contacts. "
HOW TO CREATE PUBLIC GROUP LINKS:
This action can only be done by the group administrator:
We have to choose the way to share the link.
If you choose to copy the link, then you can paste it into any Whatsapp chat. It would appear like this, to the contact, or group, with which you share it
The person who receives it will click on the invitation and before accepting to join the group, information about it will appear. We will be able to see the people who are in it. This will help us to enter, or not, the same.
An interesting function to create public groups. But be careful with sharing the links with people outside your contacts and that you don't know.
