# `bird whatsapp groups join-requests`

## Usage

```bash
bird whatsapp groups join-requests
```

## Description

A group set to approval mode raises a request for each person who opens its invite link.
Decisions are made in batches and are part-appliable: the response carries the requests
it decided and the ones it could not, each with its own reason.

Reads return JSON; list is paginated.
