The TestFlight Public Link feature is not currently available. My understanding is that it will become available this summer along with the App Store Connect APIs. These features are listed as "Coming Soon" in the App Store Connect page of Apple's website.

To enable your link, you'll need an Admin or an App Manager role.

You must log in to AppStore Connect > My Apps > Your App. Then, go to the TestFlight Tab and create or select a Group.

Select the desired external tester group and click the button "Enable Public Link", where an unique URL is generated.

It is worth mentioning that you can:

  • Set a limit for the number of testers that can join a group through your public link;
  • Disable the link at anytime.

The Apple Developer Website states:

External Testers and Groups

Once you’re ready, you can invite up to 10,000 external testers who do not need to be part of your team. You can invite testers using their email address or enable a shareable public link, which creates an open invitation for anyone to test your app. You can organize external testers into custom groups and share different builds with each group, depending on which features you want them to test. Before external testing can begin, the beta must pass review to make sure it complies with the App Store Review Guidelines. Only the first build for the beta version requires a full review.

Which in other words mean, that in order to be able to publish an open beta (at least in the first go), the app needs to have already passed apple's review and have the status of "ready to submit" instead of "Waiting for review"
