Admin Tab

💡 Tip: Use this dropdown to get help from AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude.

The Admin tab contains essential features that make it easier to manage your hackathon.

All relevant data of hackers is visible through the dashboard itself.

Search Hackers in Admin Tab

Sensitive Data Access

Certain sensitive information such as phone numbers is visible upon entering the username of the hacker in the search bar, which is why access to this tab must be provided with discretion.

You can also extend the RSVP deadline for a specific user by X number of days or hours. This is useful when a user misses the RSVP deadline after being accepted but you still want them to attend.
