Automatic participant update
Automatic participant update keeps your groups’ filled-slots field updated without requiring you to count members manually.
How it works
Section titled “How it works”The system checks your groups at the selected interval and updates the Filled slots field. This helps the redirector send new people to groups with available space.
Updates depend on information received from WhatsApp and are not guaranteed to be real time.
Check intervals
Section titled “Check intervals”You can choose how often checks run:
| Interval | Best for |
|---|---|
| Every 3 hours | Active launches with high traffic volume |
| Every 6 hours | Standard use |
| Every 12 hours | More stable operations |
The default interval is 6 hours.
