Get a link by code

GET /v1/chats/sharing-links/:code

Returns a link by its code — a chat link or a guest link. Use it to find out, from the code in a link URL, which chat the link leads to and what kind of link it is.

Parameters

Parameter Type Required Description
code (path) string yes The link code — the code field of the link object or the IM_CODE parameter of its address. From 1 to 64 printable characters without spaces

The request takes no query parameters: they are rejected with 400 INVALID_PARAMS.

Errors

400 INVALID_PARAMS code does not look like a link code, or a query parameter was passed. Checked before any call to Bitrix24
422 BITRIX_ERROR Bitrix24 returned an error; the portal code is in error.b24Code. SHARING_LINK_NOT_FOUND — no link with this code exists
404 ENTITY_NOT_FOUND Bitrix24 answered with an unspecified "not found" code; the portal code is in error.b24Code
403 SCOPE_DENIED The API key does not have the im scope
401 TOKEN_MISSING The API key has no Bitrix24 tokens configured

Known specifics

A revoked link is read the same way as a valid one. The response has no revocation flag: the only thing that distinguishes a revoked link is that joining by code with it is rejected with SHARING_LINK_REVOKED in error.b24Code.

Reading does not require chat membership. The call does not take a chat and does not make you its member, so it works with a read-only key. Chat permissions are not checked on reading: any user of the Bitrix24 account who knows the code can read the link.

A guest invitation discloses the address. For a personal invitation by email or SMS, the name field holds the address or number of a person outside the Bitrix24 account — forward the response only to people allowed to see that contact.
