Rate limiting actually has nothing to do with this. The error is a red herring. Inviting groups doesn’t work (and never did). I thought that @techAPJ was going to remove groups from the invite drop-down to remove the ambiguity.

Note: I would still dearly love this to work. I frequently have the need to use it and it seems fairly fundamental.
