# Send scheduled invite

`POST /documentgroup/{document_group_id}/scheduled-invite/send`

This endpoint allows API users to send an active scheduled document group invite immediately, bypassing the originally scheduled time. After the invite is sent, the scheduled record is removed from the `active` status.

## Authorization

bearer

## Path Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `document_group_id` | string | Yes | ID of the document group whose scheduled invite is sent immediately. |

## Responses

### 200

Returned when the scheduled invite is sent successfully. The response shape depends on the invite type: field invite returns `id` and `pending_invite_link`; freeform invite returns a `data` object that contains `id`.

**Example** (`Field invite`)

```json
{
  "id": "cf167dedcbe2466287033ddffb32fb18c4ad5340",
  "pending_invite_link": null
}
```

**Example** (`Freeform invite`)

```json
{
  "data": {
    "id": "cf167dedcbe2466287033ddffb32fb18c4ad5346"
  }
}
```

### 400

Errors:

* The document group does not have an active scheduled invite.
* The user is not the document group owner.

**Example** (`User is not document group owner`)

```json
{
  "errors": [
    {
      "code": 65582,
      "message": "User is not document group owner"
    }
  ]
}
```

**Example** (`Active scheduled invite not found`)

```json
{
  "errors": [
    {
      "code": 65582,
      "message": "Active scheduled invite not found."
    }
  ]
}
```
