Allow participants to share call invitations with others using the share invite feature.

​
Share Invite Button

​
Show Share Invite Button

By default, the share invite button is hidden. To show it: 
const callSettings = {
  hideShareInviteButton: false,
  // ... other settings
};

​
Listen for Share Invite Button Clicks

Handle share invite button clicks to implement your sharing logic: 
CometChatCalls.addEventListener("onShareInviteButtonClicked", () => {
  console.log("Share invite button clicked");
  // Implement your sharing logic
  shareCallInvite();
});

​
Implementing Share Functionality

When the share invite button is clicked, you can implement various sharing methods:

​
Web Share API

Use the native Web Share API for mobile-friendly sharing: 
async function shareCallInvite() {
  const shareData = {
    title: "Join my call",
    text: "Click the link to join my video call",
    url: `https://yourapp.com/call/${sessionId}`
  };

  if (navigator.share) {
    try {
      await navigator.share(shareData);
      console.log("Shared successfully");
    } catch (error) {
      console.log("Share cancelled or failed");
    }
  } else {
    // Fallback for browsers that don't support Web Share API
    copyToClipboard(shareData.url);
  }
}

​
Copy to Clipboard

Provide a simple copy-to-clipboard option: 
function copyToClipboard(text) {
  navigator.clipboard.writeText(text).then(() => {
    console.log("Link copied to clipboard");
    // Show a toast notification
  }).catch(err => {
    console.error("Failed to copy:", err);
  });
}

​
Custom Share Dialog

Create a custom share dialog with multiple options: 
function showShareDialog() {
  const callLink = `https://yourapp.com/call/${sessionId}`;
  
  // Show your custom dialog with options like:
  // - Copy link
  // - Share via email
  // - Share via SMS
  // - Share to social media
}
