createInvitation()
Creates a new invitation for the given email address and sends the invitation email.
If an email address has already been invited or already exists in your application, trying to create a new invitation will return an error. To bypass this error and create a new invitation anyways, set ignoreExisting to true.
const invitation = await clerkClient.invitations.createInvitation({
emailAddress: 'invite@example.com',
redirectUrl: 'https://optionally-redirect-here',
