Approve pending join requests (not implemented in v2)
**Not implemented in v2.** Approving people waiting to join a group is not part of v2's live WhatsApp surface, so this endpoint **always responds 501 `not_implemented`** regardless of the request body. The route and `participants` body shape are reserved for a future release. **Capability:** requires `send` (checked before the 501 is returned).
Send Authorization: Bearer <token>. The router accepts two kinds of token and tries each in turn: a frontend-minted login JWT (verified against the frontend JWKS; the person's org + role are read from it), or an api-key for a script/service (carrying a fixed set of gateway permissions). The bearerFormat: JWT label describes the person-login case.

Path Parameters

Request Body
application/json
TypeScript Definitions
Use the request body type in TypeScript.
User JIDs of pending join requests to approve. Not implemented in v2 (always 501); this field is accepted but never acted on.
Response Body
application/json
curl -X POST "https://example.com/api/v1/sessions/01HZ0SESSION0000000000000/groups/120363041234567890@g.us/members:approve" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{}'{ "error": { "code": "not_found", "details": { "property1": null, "property2": null }, "message": "session not found" }}Promote a member to admin POST
Makes the member named by `jid` a group **admin**. **Capability:** requires `send`. **Precondition (live action):** the session must be **connected** and its account must already be a group **admin**. If the session is not connected the gateway responds **501 `not_implemented`**. **Success:** **204 No Content**. Promoting someone who is already an admin is a no-op. **Errors:** - **404 `not_found`** — the session, group, or member does not exist (or is not yours). - **403 `forbidden`** — the session's account is not an admin of this group. - **501 `not_implemented`** — the session is not connected.
Leave a group POST
Removes the session's **own** account from the group. **Capability:** requires `send`. **Precondition (live action):** the session must be **connected**. If it is not the gateway responds **501 `not_implemented`**. **Success:** **204 No Content**. After leaving, this session can no longer act on the group; reading still works only on whatever stored data remains. **Errors:** - **404 `not_found`** — the session or group does not exist (or is not yours). - **501 `not_implemented`** — the session is not connected.
