Developer Promotion

Developer Promotion lets you upgrade your own account to developer status using a one-time password (OTP). This is a self-service page — you request the upgrade for yourself; you cannot promote or demote other people from here.

Overview

A developer account unlocks additional features and tools intended for testing and development. Because of this, promotion is protected by a one-time password that is sent to an administrator-monitored Telegram channel and requires administrator approval.

This page has two states:

  • Promotion flow — shown when your account is not yet a developer. You request and verify an OTP to upgrade.
  • Developer Account Active — shown when your account already has developer privileges. It displays your account status instead of the promotion form.

Page Layout

Open the page from Settings → Developer Promotion.

The page header reads Developer Promotion with the subtitle "Upgrade your account to developer status."

If you are not yet a developer

A single card titled Developer Account Promotion with:

  • A short explanation that you must verify your identity using an OTP sent to the Telegram channel.
  • A Request OTP button (this is the only control shown at first).
  • After you request an OTP, an Enter OTP field (6-digit), a Verify OTP button, and a Request New OTP button.
  • An information note explaining that developer access provides additional features for testing and development, and that the action requires administrator approval via Telegram.

If you are already a developer

A single card titled Developer Account Active showing a read-only status summary:

  • Account — your full name (or username)
  • Email — your account email
  • Role — your assigned role
  • Developer Status — shown as Active with a check badge

A note explains that as a developer you have access to the Developer Portal, API documentation, and advanced system tools.

Common Tasks

Promoting Your Account to Developer

  1. Go to SettingsDeveloper Promotion.
  2. Click Request OTP. While the request is in progress the button shows "Requesting OTP...".
  3. A confirmation appears: "OTP has been sent to our Telegram channel." The OTP is delivered to the administrator-monitored Telegram channel, not to your email or phone.
  4. Obtain the 6-digit code from the administrator who monitors that channel.
  5. In the Enter OTP field, type the 6-digit code.
  6. Click Verify OTP. While verifying, the button shows "Verifying...".
  7. On success you see "Account successfully promoted to developer!" and the page reloads to reflect your new developer status.

Requesting a New OTP

If your code did not arrive or has expired:

  1. On the OTP entry screen, click Request New OTP.
  2. A fresh code is sent to the Telegram channel.
  3. Enter the new code and click Verify OTP.

Checking Your Developer Status

  1. Open SettingsDeveloper Promotion.
  2. If your account is already a developer, the Developer Account Active card is shown automatically.
  3. Review your Account, Email, Role, and Developer Status (Active).

Troubleshooting

  • "Please enter the OTP code" — the OTP field was empty when you clicked Verify OTP. Enter the 6-digit code first.
  • "Invalid or expired OTP. Please try again." — the code was wrong or has expired. Click Request New OTP and try again with the fresh code.
  • "Failed to request OTP. Please try again." — the OTP request did not go through. Wait a moment and click Request OTP again.

Tips

  • The OTP is 6 digits and is sent to a Telegram channel monitored by administrators — you may need to coordinate with an administrator to receive it.
  • Promotion applies to your own account only; there is no list of other users and no demote action on this page.
  • Each OTP can expire, so verify it promptly after requesting.

💡 Note: Developer access is intended for testing and development purposes and requires administrator approval via Telegram.
