How can I create an auto promotion bot api?

First up, there's multiple ways to do this. You need to have PHP knowledge or JSON knowledge. You can do it with either one, although in my opinion I recommend using JavaScript + JSON. Here's where I recommend you start:
That link will send you to a GitHub post by sentanos a.k.a. Froast. He created that api, and it's highly useful and works like a charm. It's simple to setup. If you want to create your own, here's the steps you should take:
- Learn some PHP or JSON (and JS obviously).
- Create a bot account, and rank it as high as possible in your group.
- Save the password and username of the bot on a piece of paper or on a document so you don't forget it.
- Use HTTPService to send requests to a server (I recommend using Heroku, as it's free).
- The server will recognize the request and use your PHP/JSON code to log into your bot account and do whatever you decide (pass arguments to choose).
- That's it! Hope I helped! :)
