Does Live Bot work with YouTube?

• Technically, yes. While Live Bot is only intended for Twitch, monitoring a YouTube live stream is possible.

  • NOTE:­ This setup is not reliable and may result in duplicate notification posts if Twitch alerts are setup.

• How do I setup YouTube notifications?

  • Run the monitor role command, /monitor role role-to-monitor. Users with this set role will have their stream posted once their Discord status changes to "Streaming" (purple icon).

• How do I stop YouTube live posts?

  • Run the command, /monitor role stop-monitoring:True.

Can multiple roles be pinged?

• Yes! The {role} parameter represents all roles selected to mention: If your message is, {role} Hey, {name} is live! Check out the stream: {url} and you selected a 'role1' and 'role2', the bot will mention both roles next to each other where {role} is present.
