If i created a character on my own, outside of our campaign, how can i add it to the campaign my friend is running? Or do I need to recreate it within the campaign?
Ask you friend to send you the invite link. Click on the link. You will be able to choose the character you have created.
I am imagining the user story written at their scrum session didn't get enough scrutiny or review. It should be a one-click operation to add any of my own characters to any of my own campaigns. There are a lot of bad assumptions about use cases in this tool.
It's common to want to add NPCs to a party, so there should be a way to do that without monkeying with an invite link. I should also be able to put a monster stat block onto the player's side of the combat, so it doesn't corrupt the CR calculator, for summons, pets, allied monsters, etc.
If you're the DM or already in the campaign, the invite link is at the top right of the screen when you're viewing the campaign. Under it are the words "Send players this invite link to have them join your campaign."

How do you get to the invite link
If you're the DM or already in the campaign, the invite link is at the top right of the screen when you're viewing the campaign. Under it are the words "Send players this invite link to have them join your campaign."
If you want to join a campaign, ask the DM to send you the link.
