This outlines how I usually implement external service calls on the frontend. We use classes and leverage advantages to craft a compact and easily portable way to make API calls. Note that this could absolutely be done with functions, but I created this gist out of demand.

GitHub gist is just annoying and doesn't line up the files as you create them. Instead it orders it alphabetically. When I have time, I'll fix it. For now, manage it as it is.

Note: Treat hyphen (-) in file names as a directory slash (/).

This is a robust implementation that is extensible for anything that requires the use of OTP. Want to use OTP to verify
a user? Check! Want to use OTP to validate an order? CHeck! Want to use OTP to reset a password? CHEck! Want to use
OTP to verify a device? CHECk! Want to use OTP to fight people? CHECK!

I used: Django (framework), Django Rest Framework (a plugin for REST API), PostgreSQL (database)
and email (for sending the otp). You can substitute any of these for whatever you want, like using Redis instead of Postgres.
While this solution is built to be used for Django, I have added comments to explain the process for developers using
other frameworks.
