Group Invite

The problem

When I try to add a phone number that I manage via signal-cli-rest-api to a group from an external device, the message "XXX cannot be automatically added to this group by you.

The invitation for the group does not appear under "/v1/groups/+xxxx". What could be the reason for this?

The phone number has a profile username and avatar

It should work like this:

• Create a group and add the number that you use for the Signal REST API as a group member
• the /groups endpoint should show that there is a pending invitation
• join the group with the /join endpoint
