API Support for Tracking Invitation Links Used by Members

[AshotZaqoyan]

Summary:
We propose adding a feature to the Discord API that allows bots to identify which invitation link a user used to join a server. This functionality would significantly enhance community management and automation capabilities.

Use Case:
Our NGO, "Children of Regions," actively uses Discord to manage a community of over 500 active users and 35+ team-based sub-servers. Tracking invitation links would allow us to synchronize our databases, automate onboarding processes, and provide tailored access based on user origins. This feature would also benefit other organizations and developers using Discord for community management.

Proposed Solution:
Add an API endpoint or event that provides the invitation link used by a member upon joining the server. This data could be included in the GUILD_MEMBER_ADD event or similar.

Benefits:

Streamlined user management for large communities.
Improved automation capabilities for onboarding and access control.
Enhanced insights into invitation link usage and effectiveness.
We believe this feature will not only support our work but also provide value to many other organizations and developers.

Thank you for considering this request! We’re happy to provide more details if needed.
