What an account line looks like
You get one line per account, with fields separated by |. Here's an example (this token is fake — yours will be much longer):
[email protected]|8kd2mapq7x|M.C506_BL2.0.U.MsaArtifacts.-AbCdeFg…(one very long string, 300+ chars)…XyZ9$|9e5f94bc-e8a4-4e73-b8be-63364c29d753
email — the mailbox address you'll read.
type — an internal tag from the seller. Not used; leave it as-is.
refresh_token — the long key (usually starts with M.). This is what lets GetOTP.my open the mailbox without a password. Keep it secret.
client_id — the app id used to talk to Microsoft (a UUID, like above).
recovery_code — optional 5th field; some lines have it, some don't. Not needed to read mail.
Paste the whole line — no spaces, no line breaks — into Quick read and tap Read inbox. Only the email, token and client_id are needed to read mail.
FAQ
What does GetOTP.my do?
It reads the inbox and one-time codes (OTP) of Outlook / Hotmail accounts that sign in with an OAuth refresh token — no password needed.
Is my data stored?
Quick read stores nothing. For saved accounts, refresh tokens are encrypted at rest and only used to read your mail.
It says "No code found" — why?
Not every email contains a code. GetOTP.my only shows a code when the email clearly labels it (e.g. "your code is…"), so notification emails aren't mistaken for codes.
What does "Clear inbox" do?
It moves all Inbox emails to Deleted Items (recoverable — not permanent) and leaves Sent/Drafts alone. It needs a token with write permission; otherwise it shows an error.
An account stopped loading or shows a token error.
The refresh token in that line has expired or been revoked — most often because the account's password was changed. Get a fresh account line from where you got it, then paste it again (in My accounts, saving the same email updates it).
What is client_id?
It's the ID of the app used to talk to Microsoft. It already comes in your account line — just paste the whole line as you received it.
Light or dark theme?
Use the 🌙 / ☀️ button at the top right. The default is dark; your choice is remembered on this device.
