Twitch & YouTube
Twitch and YouTube can be configured independently of the Simple/Advanced TikTok connection. They use the same request rules and engine capacity.
Twitch
In Connections → Other chat platforms, enter:
- Twitch channel to listen to.
- Twitch bot username for the reply account.
- Twitch OAuth token belonging to that account.
All three are required when Twitch is enabled. Select Save & reconnect, then deliberately enable requests. PearConnect can send command results to Twitch chat through this adapter.
Leaving the token blank preserves the saved credential. Clearing the channel disables Twitch. Desktop credentials are encrypted using the OS facilities.
CLI keys:
dotenv
TWITCH_CHANNEL=
TWITCH_USERNAME=
TWITCH_OAUTH=YouTube Live
Enter YouTube channel ID under Other chat platforms and save. Use the exact channel ID, not a display name. Clear it to disable the adapter.
dotenv
YOUTUBE_CHANNEL_ID=YouTube input uses an unofficial, read-only chat adapter. Command results remain in PearConnect's activity or terminal; it does not send YouTube chat replies. Compatibility with the live platform can change.
Permissions
Use twitch:login and youtube:exact_channel_ID in your request and skip allowlists. Do not substitute a YouTube display name for a channel ID.
Dry-run behavior
Dry-run disables Twitch and YouTube connections. It does not test their live delivery. Simple TikFinity input remains readable in dry-run.
