Using SharePoint REST API can we create a share link for specific users without sending invitation

Inside the SharePoint Online UI >> we can create a sharing link using "People you choose" + define View permission, as follow:-

 

 

 

Where we define the user/s and the UI will send an immediate invitation email.

 

Now i am developing a REST API call using Power Automate >> which should mimic the above Sharing link, but without sending an invitation email.. so can anyone advice on the SharePoint end point that i can use for this? as i did not find any official documentation about this.

 

Thanks

      but i did not find any documentation from Microsoft regarding this end point and the parameters we can pass.. so can i guarantee that my above requests will work in the future?
