I think previously self-inviting was done using this request https://vrchatapi.github.io/docs/api/#post-/instances/-worldId---instanceId-/invite which got broken in the security update.

Nowadays the same thing can be done with this endpoint instead https://vrchatapi.github.io/docs/api/#post-/invite/myself/to/-worldId---instanceId-

It would be nice if you could reimplement self-inviting within VRCX.

Example request:

POST /api/1/invite/myself/to/wrld_4432ea9b-729c-46e3-8eaf-846aa0a37fdd:37056~private(usr_353f05b1-3210-4640-b362-412e4f7c3743)~region(eu)~nonce(ED032C699F638DD986C659A4B18459F9E81E135D2688DDE9) HTTP/2

You can already do self-inviting with the help of VRCX but it requires a jump to the VRChat website. Let's say you have received in invitation to a private world.
