Welcome!

  • Yes, I have searched for similar requests on GitHub and found none.

What type of feature?

Integration

What is the motivation for the request?

The /group/updateSetting/{instance} endpoint currently
supports 4 actions: announcement, not_announcement, locked,
unlocked.

There is no way to programmatically control the "Add other
members" group permission (memberAddMode), which WhatsApp
defaults to false when a group is created via Baileys.

Request: Add member_add_mode and not_member_add_mode (or a
boolean equivalent) as valid actions in GroupUpdateSettingDto
and the corresponding Baileys service call — similar to how
announcement/not_announcement is implemented.

Use case: Automated group creation workflows need to enable
this permission so all members (not just admins) can invite
others without manual intervention after creation.
