getInvitationLinkByEmployeeType

InvitationLinkWrapper getInvitationLinkByEmployeeType(employeeType)

GET /api/2.0/portal/users/invitationlink/{employeeType}

Get an invitation link by role

Returns the portal's invitation link for one role - the URL to share, how long it lasts and how often it has already been used. Inviting members has to be enabled for the portal (GET api/2.0/settings/invitationsettings) and employeeType has to be DocSpaceAdmin, RoomAdmin or User; the caller needs the right to add users of that role, only the portal owner may read the DocSpace administrator link, and for a paying role (DocSpaceAdmin or RoomAdmin) the call is refused while the portal payment is overdue or the portal quota has no free paid seat left. The call is read-only and idempotent, but the url it returns is signed for the calling account, so two administrators are handed two different URLs for one and the same link. A role that has no link yet is answered with an empty body and 200 rather than a 404 - create the link with POST api/2.0/portal/users/invitationlink. expiration is in the portal time zone and empty for a link without a deadline, isExpired says whether that deadline has passed, and currentUseCount counts how many accounts have already joined through the link.
