How to Add Multiple Streamer Notifications on Discord Botrix
To add multiple streamer notifications on Discord Botrix, follow these steps:
Step 1: Create a New Botrix User
To start, you need to create a new Botrix user. Go to the Botrix website, click on the "Create a User" button, and fill out the required information. You can choose the type of user you want to create (in this case, "Twitch Streamer").
Step 2: Configure Your Twitch Account
Log in to your Twitch account and go to the "Account Settings" page. Under the "Stream" tab, click on "Settings" and then "Stream Key." Copy the stream key, as you will need it later.
Step 3: Configure Botrix
Go back to your Botrix user and click on the "Edit" button. In the "Twitch Settings" section, paste the stream key you copied earlier. Also, enter the Twitch username of the streamer you want to track. Repeat this process for each additional streamer you want to follow.
Note: Make sure to separate the streamers with commas (,). For example: "StreamerA, StreamerB, StreamerC"
Step 4: Set Up the Notification System
In the "Notification Settings" section of the Botrix user, you can choose what type of notifications you want to receive. You can choose from the following options:
- Online/Offline Status: Receive notifications when your streamer goes online or offline
- Stream Start/End: Receive notifications when your streamer starts or ends a stream
- New Streamer Refresh Period: Receive notifications when your streamer updates their stream schedule
Choose the notification options that fit your needs and save your settings.
Step 5: Customize Your Notification Messages (Optional)
Under the "Notification Settings" section, you can also customize your notification messages. You can set custom messages for each notification type or use the default ones provided by Botrix. You can also use Discord mentions (e.g., @username) to mention users in the notification messages.
Step 6: Save and Test Your Configuration
Once you’ve configured your notification settings, click on the "Save" button to save your changes. Test your configuration by checking your Discord server for the newly added notifications. If everything is set up correctly, you should start receiving notifications about your streamers’ online/offline status, stream starts, and stream ends.
Troubleshooting Tips and FAQs
- Error 401: Invalid Twitch Access Token: This error typically occurs when your Twitch access token is not valid. To fix this, make sure to log in to your Twitch account and ensure that your stream key is correct.
- Error 404: Streamer Not Found: This error occurs when Botrix can’t find the streamer you’re trying to track. Double-check the Twitch username and make sure it’s correct.
- What is a stream key? A stream key is a unique code provided by Twitch to authenticate your stream. It’s required for Botrix to connect to your Twitch account and track your streamers.
- Why am I not receiving notifications? Make sure that your Discord server has the necessary permissions to receive notifications, and that your Botrix user is configured correctly.
