If you're a group owner or if you have permission to manage members, you can add people to your group in three ways:
Invite someone via email
Add someone directly
Approve people who applied to join
Note: Invitations expire after 7 days, but requests to join a group never expire.
Limitations on adding people to groups
Maximum group members - A group can have unlimited members, so there’s no limit to the number of people you can invite, add directly, or approve to join a group.
Child accounts - You can’t add a user with a child Google Account to a group through any method.
