@mild cipher (sorry for the tag) on the alpha gaming recent event rotator, how would I go about adding a custom font ?
shadow urchin
So the question is this. I've tried importing my alerts from SL, someone here suggested maybe the files were too big, and I know the custom fields I had from SL didn't transfer.
So the bigger question is, what's the limitation on file sizes for alerts?
And how would I know if that was the actual cause of the import failing?
honest meteor
@indigo flume sorry to bother. 😅 Any chance you may have seen an example for Node anywhere?
I currently have:
const { _id } = await getChannelInfo(channelID);
const userAPI = `https://api.streamelements.com/kappa/v2/points/${channelID}/${user}/${amount}`;
const response = await axios.put(userAPI, {
headers: {
Authorization: config.oAuth,
},
});
But I'm still getting a 401 response back. 😦
Am I doing the header part correctly for the JWT token?
indigo flume
shouldn't it be config.jwt?
honest meteor
That's just what I call the key in my config file; you can ignore that. 🙂
It's literally just a key name.
indigo flume
where is the "PUT" method?
honest meteor
config.oAuth is the JWT token I got from the SE dashboard.
indigo flume
or what is the PUT method, because I think the endpoint you are trying to call is a PUT method
honest meteor
It's in the axios call.
indigo flume
oh
honest meteor
axios.put...
indigo flume
then no - I'm not familiar with Node unfortunately.
honest meteor
Hmmm, okay. I'll play around with it. I've just gotta hit the right header key that it's expecting I guess. Is there a specific dev that may know?
honest meteor
@indigo flume solved it! Maybe you wanna add this to the docs or something? 😅
For Node, you can use Axios, and set a default config for all requests with:
axios.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = `Bearer ${config.token}`;
That way your bearer token is on all outgoing requests, regardless of method.
indigo flume
If you can DM me a full example code on how to connect via Node to JWT, I will add it as a guide
On another note, if you are willing to also do it with websockets(or if this works with websockets), I can add an entire node section
honest meteor
The response:
{ channel: '5bafdbc460c4a91c24d29d35',
2019-12-19T14:11:49: username: 'deadmanodoescode',
2019-12-19T14:11:49: amount: 1,
2019-12-19T14:11:49: newAmount: 2,
2019-12-19T14:11:49: message: 'Added 1 points to user deadmanodoescode' }
I haven't had to use WebSockets at all, literally just a clean instance of Node using the TMI.js module and Axios to handle the API requests, though you could use Fetch or any other method like XHR.
indigo flume
just toss me a clean-ish Node code example and I can work it out as a guide 😉
honest meteor
I used this tutorial to get TMI running: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/irc/
Which has the base.
const tmi = require('tmi.js');
const axios = require('axios');
const config = require('./config/bot.json');
// Define configuration options.
const opts = {
identity: {
username: config.username,
password: config.oAuth,
},
channels: config.channels,
};
// Add the authorization token to every Axios request.
axios.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = `Bearer ${config.token}`;
And then the rest as per the guide.
The Axios header is what solved the authorization issue, and is so painless. Literally a single line, and every future request, be it PUT or POST etc. will be authorised.
I have a file as per the require with two keys, oAuth being the one you get from https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ and token being the JWT token from the SE dashboard.
That's about it. 😄
indigo flume
As I said, DM me the code and also DM me the structure of the confing/bot.json so that I don't forget them
as I don't think I'll be able to structure the guide for today
honest meteor
For sure, will do that now. 😄

Hi! So im having a bit of an issue w/ OBS Studio in regards to what i BELIEVE is my Transition interfering w/ my Stream elements overlay from refreshing appropriately. This is kind of tough to explain, so if anybody could help id REALLY appreciate it, cuz im sure this not common lol
stark heath
Noticed we are get the default SE avatar on subs, bits, donations, raid and hosts. Follows seem to work fine, as shown. Did something change?
fierce gazelle
how do I put a SE overlay in ops studio, and when will SE make a abs suitable for Mac?
obs*
sharp island
@shadow urchin I don't recall the limitation offhand, but I believe the overlay JSON needs to be <1 MB or <10 MB or something around there. This mostly happens if you've got custom fields with embedded byte64 images or fonts or huge js libraries. In all of those cases, it's suggested that you replace them with links.
@honest meteor we actually use axios ourselves on our node.js servers, and do something similar.
lusty portal
For some reason, when people follow or sub when the stream is offline, this code doesn't activate. Will I get a flood of hits when I start streaming again or is something wrong? The test alerts go through fine.
window.addEventListener('onEventReceived', function (obj)
{
if (!obj.detail.event) {return;}
if (typeof obj.detail.event.itemId !== "undefined")
{obj.detail.listener = "redemption-latest"}
const listener = obj.detail.listener.split("-")[0];
const event = obj.detail.event;
if (listener === 'follower') {addFollowEvent(event.name);};
if (listener === 'redemption') {addRedemptionEvent(event.name);};
if (listener === 'subscriber') {addSubscriberEvent(event.tier, event.amount, event.name);};
if (listener === 'host') {addHostEvent(event.name);};
if (listener === 'cheer') {addCheerEvent(event.name);};
if (listener === 'tip') {addTipEvent(event.name);};
if (listener === 'raid') {addRaidEvent(event.name);};
}
);
function addSubscriberEvent(eventtier, eventamount, username)
{
var xhttp;
xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.open("GET", "https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/http://www.1.com/index.cfm?Hours=0&action=Event&Username="+username+"&Type=Subscriber&Message="+eventtier+"&Amount="+eventamount,true);
xhttp.send();
};
this code should work IF the widget is loaded, meaning the overlay is loaded somewhere.
If its not loaded anywhere, then no you won't be flooded with events.
unless you pause the alerts and unpause when you go live.
lusty portal
Ok.. So pausing will "quee" them up?
indigo flume
yes
lusty portal
Where would I pause them?
lusty portal
Ah.. Thank you. 🙂
If I pause now, then reload the alerts... Will that put the ones since my last stream in quee?
Also, is there a direct URL I can go to to pause/resume the setting?
Because my streamdeck can go to a url in the background.. But there is no function to toggle the pausing.
indigo flume
I'm not sure I understand the 1st question properly, but the answer should be - no? any alerts that have played in the background prior to pausing will not show up again
unless you replay the alert from the activity feed
In streamdeck
lusty portal
The replay alerts don't quee back up? Even if it is paused?
indigo flume
They should queue up if paused and then replayed
lusty portal
and streamdeck, you need to be running SE OBS Live to use it. I put in a ticket for that.
Cool. Thanks. 🙂
I was just hoping for a stop gap measure until they put it in like they have for streamlabs.

mild cipher
listen to onSessionUpdate which contains data for follower-latest and subscriber-latest (log the event object to console for more details). onWidgetLoad has this data too (for when the widget initialises)

Hey @mild cipher ,
window.addEventListener('onEventReceived', function (obj)
{
if (!obj.detail.event) {return;}
if (typeof obj.detail.event.itemId !== "undefined")
{obj.detail.listener = "redemption-latest"}
const listener = obj.detail.listener.split("-")[0];
const event = obj.detail.event;
if (listener === 'follower') {addFollowEvent(event.name);};
if (listener === 'redemption') {addRedemptionEvent(event.name);};
if (listener === 'subscriber') {addSubscriberEvent(event.tier, event.amount, event.name);};
Would this work better written like this??
window.addEventListener('onEventReceived', function (obj)
{
if (!obj.detail.event) {return;}
if (typeof obj.detail.event.itemId !== "undefined")
{obj.detail.listener = "redemption-latest"}
const listener = obj.detail.listener.split("-")[0];
const event = obj.detail.event;
if (listener === 'redemption') {addRedemptionEvent(event.name);};
if (typeof obj.detail.event.itemId !== "undefined")
{obj.detail.listener = "follower-latest"}
const listener = obj.detail.listener.split("-")[0];
const event = obj.detail.event;
if (listener === 'follower') {addFollowEvent(event.name);};
if (typeof obj.detail.event.itemId !== "undefined")

const listener = obj.detail.listener.split("-")[0];
const event = obj.detail.event;
if (listener === 'subscriber') {addSubscriberEvent(event.tier, event.amount, event.name);};
or am I over thinking things?
rich pine
Interesting question, on mixer custom event list. If someone uses a gif for example, it doesn't update. all other sparks are flowing in through
is that under a different listener?
mild cipher
@lusty portal favour the first one. best to keep code DRY where possible (don't repeat yourself), also the second will throw errors where you're attempting to define listener and event multiple times

@indigo flume I don't understand the article you have sent me in #helpdesk-twitch . In my alert there is a bar where the name of (for example) a sub stands, there is another bar where I want that (for example) the number of months must be shown. I think it's not that hard to fix that, but I just don't know how I can get this.

just margin position it around
primal wagon
Where do I need to put it in the CSS
primal wagon
Yes, how to make it. I'm not that good at such thing
indigo flume
ugh
primal wagon
@indigo flume So far I did this (without any CSS)
indigo flume
So you don't have custom css enabled. You can add <br> next to the {name}
and then add a few spaces and then {amount}
its going to look like this
primal wagon
that works, but can I make the font of the amount smaller too so it fits
indigo flume
do this basically:
{name}<br> <font size=16>{amount}</font>
primal wagon
And color?
indigo flume
wait testing it out
So you can set a different size for the amount, but not color
{name}<br> <font size=28px> {amount}</font>
this will work for size
but the default settings override the color
primal wagon
Ok, thank you man. I will test some things now for myself. Your info is very good.
primal wagon
@indigo flume the font size doesn't work by my alerts, the size doesn't change

Hey can anyone have any ideas on how I can change the odds of a contest with or without api?
For example currently if You have Fighter 1 vs Fighter 2!
and Fighter 1 is better everyone will vote for player 1 and it won't be fair so I want to change the odds to make it a fair bet! Please help!
viral patrol
Contests are fair in that case. As in your example there is Fighter 1 and Fighter 2. Fighter1 is way better than Fighter2, so Fighter 1 got 1000 points together from 10 users (each put 100) when Fighter 2 got 10 points from just two people (5 points each). Now if fighter 1 wins, there will be 10 users getting 101 points each (just 1% profit), but if Fighter 2 winds, those two users will get 505 points each.

Hey all. @mild cipher I got pointed in your direction regarding the emote counter widget? It would be great if we had an option to time out the chain, lets say for example chat hits a 3x chain on a single emote, could the counter reset after say 5 seconds if none of the same emote appear again? Also, if an emote did appear again, could that then add a 4x combo, and reset the chain cooldown to 5 seconds again? It appears as though it just sticks to one emote regardless of time. Thanks man awesome work.

The easiest way to include something totally external as webpage is to use Browser Source in OBS.
charred vigil
that defeats the purpose of using SE and combining everything into one browser source
viral patrol
It does not. Within StreamElements OBS.Live you can export whole OBS config too (that includes browser sources. But if you want to use external services - they need to provide some sort of API that could be used by JavaScript.

Hello there, I have checked this channel and I found my question asked but not answered as far as I could tell, is there an endpoint in the API to add loyalty points to all users in chat, i.e. equivalent to !addpoints all x?

That is indeed a command built into the bot.
Its a super-mod only command.

Make sure to enable it, I believe its disabled by default.

regal steppe
I am aware of the command

@regal steppe Unfortunately I am not aware of any endpoint that could add points to every chatter. It is possible to send an array of users to add points to them, but you would need to get current viewers list as well.
regal steppe
Oh yeah the bulk user update endpoint, I didn’t think of that
The other idea I had was just having my app post the !addpoints command in chat, especially if different usernames are being used
I mean that does require getting super mod permission, but it’s doable

hey yall, I output to multiple platforms at once, and was curious if there is a way to change the alerts so it shows platform in it, or does each alert needs it own overlay for that platform?
viral patrol
Each platform needs own overlay and they will overlap if two events happen on different services (for example twitch follow and youtube subscriber will not be queued one after another and will play right after they are received which may cause overlapping).
You can also listen to SE websockets and create your own queue and alert system to keep them together.

Hey does anyone know how to delay a stream label from updating in stream elements? I have an alert that plays ontop of it and i dont want it to update until the alert has finished
pulsar willow
idk if streamelements is allowed to but i suggest intergrating amazon music into the song request bot, have it so you can select what platform you want music to go through and if someone selects only amazon music this would get rid of 99% of song request trolls

Hi, I was hoping someone might have a way to get a list of users and the time the have spent in the channel for a specified period of time.

Hello. I'm having issues with customization of Donation {amount}. Let's assume I'm emulating a 1€ donation and I have {currency}{amount} in the alert message. If custom CCS is turned off, the amount displayed is €1. If I enable custom CSS (but don't change anything inside it), the amount displayed is now €1.00. Do you know why this happens and how could I recreate the "non-custom" behaviour?

i want to do my own custom api, where i can learn?

@exotic otter Hi! You can use JavaScript:
let amount=parseInt("{amount}");
$("#selector").html(amount)

Anyway. I don’t see it on my list of channels

tribal pilot
Thanks! I see it
exotic otter
@viral patrol Ty for your suggestion. I'm trying to paste the code in the JS section but the emulation of the donation gives a blank amount so I'm doing something wrong here (complete JS noob here)
viral patrol
You should have <span id="selector"></span> in HTML in place you want to display the amount
So code above (using #selector) can work
exotic otter
@viral patrol finally got to make it at least show a number with your instructions. unfortunately it is not the intended result I'm afraid (right now is rounding all monetary values to an integer). What I was looking was the stock behaviour, as in 1.00€ shows as 1€ but 1.50€ shows 1.50€. In other words, only show as integer when the amount is an integer. Sorry if I wasn't clear in my words.
viral patrol
Oh. I know that this solution doesn't look nice, but I think I would do something like:
let amount = parseFloat("{amount}");
let digits = 0;
if (amount % 1 !== 0) digits = 2;
amount = amount.toLocaleString(undefined, { minimumFractionDigits: digits });
$("#selector").html(amount);

Hello! I have custom alerts that I would like to implement into my stream, but unfortunately I am not able to resize the alert to the size I want. Is there any insight you might be able to share regarding this issue? I appreciate any assistance.

@random verge You can resize it via the web editor 🤔

@pseudo siren the animation is smaller than the text. so when I resize the animation, the text is still disproportionately larger than the animation if that makes sense

quartz yoke
Hi folks, i've been working on custom command ideas for a streamer i mod for. One command in particular I have already got part formed, but i was unable to find info from searching as to whether its possible or not to make a command pick from choices based from a previous random pick within the same command.
For example, something along these lines initially;
${user} beat ${random.chatter} but took ${random.pick '25' '50' '75' '100'} damage from their ${random.pick 'common' 'uncommon' 'rare' 'legendary'} ${random.pick 'shotgun' 'sniper' 'splodes' 'pickaxe' 'pistol' 'SMG' 'AR'} in the fight. ${user} drinks
would it be possible to have the command then pick a choice not randomly, but based off the random damage taken?
viral patrol
You would need an external HTTP API to do that
quartz yoke
ok, thanks. i'll see what i can find about it in this instance.
viral patrol
If you know any php/nodejs/python coder - that person could establish their website's endpoint for your bot call.
quartz yoke
not currently, im taking some C++ courses this year but thats prob not going to be helpful lol
do you know any good resources to read up on it more?
viral patrol
If you think about coding for our environment - take anything that is about JavaScript and CSS. Then you will find pinned messages useful. I am not aware of anything simple for serving HTTP via C++ directly
quartz yoke
ok thanks. i'll go through the pins to find whats needed for the command itself. As for the api it would call, i assume that's where it would need something i or a coder i know made to run and use the randompick to generate a choice?
viral patrol
Yup. The coder should write http api to create that game based on variables StreamElements bot can provide
quartz yoke
i like to jump in the deep end it seems. thanks for your help, i'll have to get to learning how thats done

To edit to only scroll one time, edit the HTML.

Have a potential question bout editing one of the custom widgets
NOt sure if its possible, but basically; i wanna edit part of the widget (its a rotating social media list) so one of the social medias has a custom/personal offset than the others, so it fits more symmetrically with placement with others.
Not sure if its feasible in the CSS or w/e, was advised to ask here 👀
Case in point
Im not 100% sure of what I'd be looking for to edit or judge if its plausible, as ive only ever really modified n edited HTML/Python/JS with my hobbled knowledge of the last 20 years lol

If someone needs a webhook for the channel points rewards, like I do they can temp. use this chrome plugin. Still wait for an alert-functionallity in streamelements.. the pubsub should be there. https://github.com/69/rewardhook

@wintry linden
You can edit this sort of line to the JS code where the two possibilities for the variable html elements are put together (default line 76 and 85):
${element.name == 'ABC' ? `<div style="margin-left: XYZpx">` : ''}
with ABC being the exatv value you entered in the Social X name field
and with XYC being the px amount you want it to be moved to the side (negative values possible).

Hi ive been recommended to come here. Is there a way with the streamelements bot to have it pull a url when someone follows my channel
hardy walrus
*streamelements 
feral eagle
is for a IFTTT webhook ive made so all i need it to do it fetch a url instead of typing a message in chat thankyou someone for following
assuming that wont work?
guessing that will just type the message in the chat
cyan shuttle
Hello... Im trying to use a custom overlay in OBS with StreamElements. What I need is how to find the source code for "latest subscriber" "latest tipper" "latest follower" and "top tipper". Im sure its an api somewhere, just dont know where to find it. Thanks
rugged rapids
Take a look at the documents at the head of this channel
cyan shuttle
Thanks Benno
Now if I can just figure out how to put it in, I know little about coding
viral patrol
@feral eagle Using variable like that should work, but instead of urlfetch use ${customapi.https://somewhere.com/test.xyz}
feral eagle
Ok ill give that a go now
{user} thankyou for following the channel ${customapi.https://somewhere.com/test.xyz}
so could i make like so
viral patrol
@cyan shuttle You can adjust that: https://github.com/StreamElements/widgets/tree/master/CustomLabels (create a custom widget and paste contents of each file to corresponding tab, json goes to fields tab)
feral eagle
but obviously replace the link
viral patrol
@feral eagle Also keep in mind that script will write output as message on channel.
Also you can make that via custom widget.
feral eagle
Ok so customapi still writes the same response
viral patrol
Just create a widget with JS only (remove html, fields, css):
window.addEventListener('onEventReceived', function (obj) {
if (typeof obj.detail.event.itemId !== "undefined") {
obj.detail.listener = "redemption-latest"
}
const listener = obj.detail.listener.split("-")[0];
if (listener==="follower"){
fetch("https://YourURL/follower.xyz");
} else if ( listener==="subscriber"){
fetch("https://YourURL/sub.xyz");
}
else if ( listener==="cheer"){
fetch("https://YourURL/cheer.xyz");
}
});
so im guessing it will just be because thats the response the webhook gives
viral patrol
It is because of that. With that snippet above response is ignored
feral eagle
id prefer the url is pulled but not posted in the chat if that makes sense
viral patrol
But this will work only when you have this widget running in OBS (so add it to your overlay)
feral eagle
legit have no idea how to do what ur suggesting 😦
viral patrol
One moment. I will give you a link in a second, to make it easier.
What platform are you using?
feral eagle
would it be adding a custom alert box and pasting that into the custom css?
viral patrol
Twitch/Mixer/YT/FB?
feral eagle
twitch
viral patrol
This widget will send a request to provided URL when event is happening. Keep it running in OBS (so add overlay to your OBS as Browser Source or copy this widget to your current overlays)
Also: It won't work if stream is offline
feral eagle
Ok ill give it a try now thankyou
Ok so ive tried it and doesnt seem to work
do i need to add my channel info anywhere for it?
feral eagle
Yes ive added as a browser source
however, althought in fields on the editor (ive put the webhook url there) if i go onto the editor and fields all is blank
should i add the url to the value on follower
viral patrol
Those are "default values" there, they can be blank
feral eagle
ok
this is what i have done
then saved that and added the widget as a browser source
viral patrol
Can you open that overlay in chrome, press f12, go to network tab and emulate event then?
viral patrol
feral eagle
sorry i suck at this lol
viral patrol
No problem at all!
feral eagle
🙂
viral patrol
I see lamp flashing!
viral patrol
No problem at all! Have a great time with StreamElements.
feral eagle
even better than it doesnt work when stream offline so that was the icing on the cake 🙂
viral patrol
Yup. I imagine disco on your ceiling when you try to sleep 😉
feral eagle
exactly lol
proof that you dont need an expensive phillips hue etc to create events
just someone like you who knows what they are doing haha
thanks again have a great day

I'm confused. I'm working on a custom widget. Trying to get total follower count on widget load. I've tried a couple different ways based on examples I found and it's not returning other than 0. What is the standard method of pulling information like that?
charred tundra
Can you share the code you used?
crisp holly
Here's one of the examples I tried
let apiKey = obj.detail.channel.apiToken;
let channel = obj.detail.channel.username;
fetch(`//api.streamelements.com/kappa/v2/channels/${channel}/`, {})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(function (channelData) {
let channelId = channelData._id;
fetch(`//api.streamelements.com/kappa/v2/bot/${channelId}/counters/${tests}`, {})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => botPoints = parseInt(data.value));
});
I would like to use SE API, but that didn't seem to much more either
This example isn't specifically follower count. This one is for a counter value, obviously. But the concept is the same
viral patrol
Oh. This example you have is for bot counter like !wins !kills and so on
If you want to display current follower count you can use this as base: https://github.com/StreamElements/widgets/tree/master/CustomLabels
celest bluff
So I'm a novice when it comes to coding. I want to do something very specific and I believe it is easy to do if I have the right list of commands. Is there such a list? I see the API documentation above but after reading through it I don't see what I need.
I want to program the widget to read twitch chat and when seeing a certain string of text to call up a video that plays in the browser source.
this is probably very easy but again im a super novice at programming languages
viral patrol
There is a Video on Command widget by Benno that should allow you to do that
celest bluff
ooh. thank you ill look into that
ah so it only reads typed messages in chat. was hoping it could read chat to capture the text message from custom channel point rewards without having to get a chrome extension
dreamy wasp
With the queue of thefyrewire, I see that you can draw a random name. What I’m not understanding is are you suppose to type the queue command in twitch chat and what should happen once you do?
rugged rapids
You type the command in your twitch chat, after you set it up and it will give you the random user or users you want in chat.
dreamy wasp
I typed the random user command and nothing happened. Where should the name appear?
rugged rapids
The name sould appear posted by the chatbot in your twitch chat.
dreamy wasp
@rugged rapids Nothing appeared in chat when I typed !queue next random
rugged rapids
Is somethign appoearing in chat when you type !quee next ?
Is even someone in the queue?
dreamy wasp
Yeah I added myself to the queue.

When I type "!queue next" nothing happens

I am writing a tool for someone that lets them allow access to a minecraft server through watchtime logged with streamelements. Right now I am using All time points, but I have noticed a difference between what the streamelements Twitchbot says and what points a user has. Say in twitch I have 2.5 days of watch time, and for all time points I have 57900 points (at 100 points every 10 minutes), this would equal 4.02 days. I wondering if the twitch bot, or the points, is reporting the incorrect amount of time, and if there is anyway for me to get the watchtime of a user directly, outside of twitch chat.
snow summit
Does anyone know how to take the custom widget and have it point to a website and pull text from it?
The situation is this, I have a php script that reads my stream's title, game, and game box art and pulls them up. I normally call this info Snaz (RIP) by calling this site: "somesite.com/twitch/twitchinfo.php?a=title" and that page would return the stream title in the API. Is there a way this can be pulled via one of hte custom widgets?
crude crest
@silk radish Are they getting points for offline time? You could check the watchtime from streamelements instead of using the points maybe?
@snow summit If you make a php endpoint on your site that returns that information you could use a javascript http request to get it from a widget.

Hi all! What's the easiest way to share overlays with others?

Get Editor access to their account and copy the overlay to their account.

@rugged rapids through https://api.streamelements.com/kappa/v2/overlays/channel/action/action ?

Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and select Settings
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted

I know that Patreon isn't a native widget on StreamElements, but if anyone knows of a starter code snippet to listen to the Patreon API though, that would be swell! I've been searching around briefly for something to help me kickstart the idea, but no luck so far (for use in a custom widget)
indigo flume
@broken jackal How are you connecting to the websocket? with the JWT token? I hope that is enclosed in the overlay it self.
broken jackal
connecting via node script using socket.io, not overlay stuff
authentication is successful, havent changed any code regarding it, it just stopped workking about 24 hours ago suddenly mid-stream
getting all events except item redemptions
indigo flume
are you authenticating with the JWT token?
broken jackal
yes
indigo flume
Logout from our dashboard, login again and retreive the JWT token again
Just know that its not the safest way to connect to our API
if the JWT token is leaked
broken jackal
what other ways are there to access the redemption events in realtime?
other than parsing the chat alerts
indigo flume
Its better via the oauth2 in general as its more secure, but I'm not sure if the redemptions events is an open scope. @static wigeon can confirm that.
ooh i'm stupid, it should be part of the activities:read scope for the oauth2
broken jackal
ah ok, I'll look in to that later. no way to fix the redemption event not triggering in the websocket for now?

Try with a fresh JWT token

This has nothing to do with the channel, but the answer is usually 2-3 business days.

Unfortunately this is not going to happen due to security issues that could happen. I advise using XHR calls to external services if you want to use them.

question do i need to fill the form out if i am only using api end points that connects to the helix api on twitch, since i really only need data to flow into my db for my moderators to use not the general public this is built on a laravel platform
or do i only need the JWT token

@dusk cargo just put the links in the custom commands

yes mainly tips really
as i have a phantombot server ws intergration but all i really need is tips
indigo flume
The wisest thing to do is to apply for the Oauth2

ok i will then, i havnt made a success enpoint yet
indigo flume
as its more secure, then having to build around trying to obscure the JWT token
indigo flume
"i havent made a sucess endpoint" - i'm not sure what you mean by this
fathom token
well it says in the form that a success redirect uri
so im just guessing a page that says yay

ah right, well you need to have your own website

yes i do
laravel
but only staff can access it not the general public yet
in the api docs is the channel reference twitch channel id

@indigo flume continuing from my issue yesterday (not receiving item redemption events via SE websocket), resetting the JWT token didnt solve the issue and I've noticed that Ground Control and also the activity feed on the main webpage are not receiving live redemption events until I reload the webpage/app (as in, redemptions that occur after I load the app/webpage do not show up in the feed until I reload)
broken jackal
was the websocket protocol changed? I'm sniffing the overlays connection to the websocket and it seems there is no event named "event" being emitted anymore, its just directly emitting as "redemption" (instead of "event" -> event.type = redemption)
indigo flume

Hi there, not sure this is the right place... I am using the custom widget Recent Events Rotator... and was trying to add all time gifted subs to it.

This is an index for top gifter.
data["subscriber-alltime-gifter"] an array of

You can use it within onSessionUpdate and onWidgetLoad

Its his thing but i thought there would be something online somewhere. Overheard elements in the stream once so im assuming he may be using it. Hopong a guru might just know of the method of such alert work
broken coyote
I highly doubt he is using SE for that effect. I haven’t seen any mixer chat widgets yet
pulsar willow
😟 oh well il just have to wstch his stream and be jealous lol thanks @broken coyote
steady iron
@whole cliff that sounds like a problem related to Windows configuration, go to the System properties > performance settings, make sure the option for Animations and JavaScript (there first 3 ones if I recall correctly) are checked
If you still have issues, drop a private message
Also, check if the overlay actually shows up correctly in OBS, it should

hey, I'm just starting out with creating a custom widget. Is there any way to listen to a specific twitch channel points event? Like someone used a specific amount of points in chat
velvet cave
atm I think the Twitch channel points API is still closed
stable creek
It doesnt seem closed. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/pubsub/#example-channel-points-event-message
I'm just not sure how to get the point redemption data via Stream Elements widget
viral patrol
@pulsar willow You can obtain user avatar and use it within your alert when you call this endpoint: https://docs.decapi.me/twitch?endpoint=avatar%2F%3Auser
Return of that is URL of avatar, you can use it then as image anywhere
broken coyote
@viral patrol he was referring to mixer
broken coyote
Excuse me while I fire up google translate lol
viral patrol
I found this one only: https://dev.mixer.com/rest/index.html#users__user__avatar_get
But it requires userid instead of username
broken coyote
alot of the mixer stuff is bots that you download
im a noob. i havent had any luck with working with the mixer api
velvet cave
I think Fyre has some but not sure
pulsar willow
i appreciate all the input guys really do thank you. I just want a gif of a dancing penguin and to pull the user logo onto the head of it as an alert for follow. It sounds simplistic but I havnt any idea how any of that would work if anyone thinks they could roll with me on discord and figure it out together msg me asap lol currently working on my overlays etc now
broken coyote
@pulsar willow i can tell you he is using streamlabs for alerts

hey guys, a girl in #🇮🇹︱italiano asked if it-s possible to use a custom CSS for the chat in overlay
can someone help me so i can explain to her?
viral patrol
Sure. It is possible when you use custom chat widget.
Just create custom widget and paste contents of each file from here https://github.com/StreamElements/widgets/tree/master/CustomChat to corresponding tabs in Custom Code Editor. JSON file goes to FIELDS tab.
charred vigil
is anyone around?
I'm thinking of using a custom api, not sure if SE can output specific json responses that I could specify in the command?
rugged rapids
For the bot there is an API variable you can use to output the whole resoponse of a website.
charred vigil
yes
but I don't want to do that
since a web request to that API gives me a JSON
I would very much like to use the command to be like "hey, I want only that specifc part of the output, bring that here"
rugged rapids
To post something in chat with a custom widget you would need a server to process the request the widget sends to this server. As you have to check the JWT token and you do not want to put that in the overlay widget in plain.
charred vigil
nothing about a widget
rugged rapids
the bot cannot "cut" answers form an api. You would need to create a custom widget.
charred vigil
$(readApi[URL]clip_url)
so for example, this is what another bot does. it looks at JSON that the API at the URL outputs and only takes the "clip_url" part of the output
I was wondering if SE's bot could do that
okay, I'll take that as "no, it can't"
thanks 🙂

Alright, go to your alert, and click 'enable custom css' and then 'open css editor'
Send your HTML and then CSS pages there.
polar hollow
shell tree
Lines 2 to 4, delete in HTML
shell tree
In CSS change your lines 7 to 10 to this: .awsome-text-container { font-size: 42px; animation-duration: 1s; font-weight: bold; }
and for animation-duration: 1s; change "1s" to whatever delay you want it to be.
polar hollow
is that everything?
shell tree
What delay are you setting it to?
polar hollow
ill set it around 1.7. ill have to mess around a bit
shell tree
If you look at lines 21 to 49
you see animation-delay:0s
then .1 .2 .3 and .4?
In CSS
Whatever value you set your first animation-duration to, add to those values.
If you add 1s to it
Change it to look like so:

ah alright
its changed the colours, style and everything but i should beable to just edit it to my liking

Do not know enough about CSS to fix that, I apologize.

I was putting setTimeout's function only on function stringToAnimatedHTML instead of the entire thing

If you know coding check the channel description for the custom code widget variables and what not.

Okay, that sounds like exactly what I'm looking for, but where is the channel description exactly? I'm very new to streamelements

@viral patrol is the version 1 of your "Wheel of Fortune alertbox" https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/457957557470887947/463072521177006080 editable in anyway?
i'm looking though the js code and it looks to be compacted and extremely hard to interpret.
viral patrol
@carmine atlas Hi! This widget was created loong time ago when I thought that obfuscating code will be a good idea (especially if your backup is gone). However we have a way better widget that you can use - https://github.com/StreamElements/widgets/tree/master/WheelOfFortune
It uses external library (WinWheel.js) that has a lot of options.
carmine atlas
i saw that one, i'm trying to get it to work like the first version (as a sub alert)
viral patrol
I just pushed an update there that allows it to spin on tip/cheer events. If you want to use subscriber, you can go to FIELDS and add subscriber-latest to "listener" field:
Keep in mind that it will run then on every sub event - for example, community gift of 5 will make it run 6 times (1 initial event (X gave 5 subs for community) and 5 times (Y got a sub from X))

I've been trying to understand how the custom widget works and I don't understand where all the widget programming is.
When I click "open editor", I get 4 tabs: "HTML", "CSS", "JS", and "FIELDS". And the HTML tab only has two lines:
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat:400,700" rel="stylesheet">
<div class="main-container"></div>
and the "main-container" class isn't referenced anywhere in the CSS or JS sections.
Also, in the API reference sheet, it's all in cURL
Nevermind for the second message, I clicked on the wrong reference sheet.
indigo flume
The CSS tab is loaded internally, so you just need to style your widget in the CSS tab
you don't need to reference anything, unless a font or something else external not hosted by us
copper spire
Is the JS file automatically called at the beginning of the HTML file?
indigo flume
yes

Is there a way that you can affect a widget using a chat command? Specifically resetting a counter (not a bot counter, but a counter built into the widget)
viral patrol
Sure! You can listen to chat
let fieldData;
const checkPrivileges = (data) => {
let required=fieldData.privileges;
let userState = {
'mod': parseInt(data.tags.mod),
'sub': parseInt(data.tags.subscriber),
'vip': (data.tags.badges.indexOf("vip") !== -1),
'badges': {
'broadcaster': (data.userId === data.tags['room-id']),
}
};
if (userState.badges.broadcaster) return true;
else if (required === "mods" && userState.mod) return true;
else if (required === "vips" && (userState.mod || userState.vip)) return true;
else if (required === "subs" && (userState.mod || userState.vip || userState.sub)) return true;
else if (required === "everybody") return true;
else return false;
};
window.addEventListener('onEventReceived', function (obj) {
if (obj.detail.listener !== "message") return;
const data = obj.detail.event.data;
if (!checkPrivileges(data)) {
return;
}
if (data.text==="!resetcounter") {
resetCounter();
}
});
window.addEventListener('onWidgetLoad', function (obj) {
fieldData = obj['detail']['fieldData'];
});
Something like that
where resetCounter(); is a function that resets your counter
And fieldData.privileges is a field in FIELDS tab:
"privileges": {
"type": "dropdown",
"label": "Who can participate:",
"value": "everybody",
"options": {
"everybody": "Everybody",
"subs": "Subs",
"vips": "VIPS",
"mods": "Mods",
"broadcaster":"Broadcaster"
}
}
is there anyway to simulate a 10+ sub gift?

yo bajs i have a question. Is it possible to update command on channel where im Supervisor (without owner's jwt token) by api?
tepid elbow
can any one help me with this, would be greatly appriciated 🙂
i need a Variable that can edit another command. so i can make a lastkill command with a !editlastkill, so !lastkill will post a link (clip) and with !editlastkill (postet new clip) goes in and replaces link in the !lastkill command
upper bough
weird question.. how can i develop a new widget and test it out on the progress?
nevermind i just find "Custom widget"
steady iron
@upper bough from the overlay itself, you can create an overlay on My Overlays section, inside the overlay add a Custom Widget, and there you can play around with the HTML, CSS, JS and Fields
upper bough
yeah yeah yeah Rene.. hey Rene i saw you on Youtube!
steady iron
I was young and I needed money, I swear
upper bough
LUL
steady iron
wait, what video did you see?
upper bough
i will send you my paypal acc with the link
steady iron
I'm not young anymore... but I still need money, so sure
@tepid elbow you will need a custom development for that, not a simple thing
upper bough
i was asking to play around with the widgets
im a web developer so i think i have the skills 🙂
steady iron
@empty cairn if you're an editor, yes, you can manage the custom commands for that channel
empty cairn
steady iron
But you need to be granted editor permisions on StreamElements, being a mod on Twitch (or streaming platform) does not give you automatic benefits on StreamElements
empty cairn
@steady iron i understand but im asking about api. keep getting 403 code
steady iron
I haven't tried that, what endpoint are you using?
403 is Forbidden, so it does sound like you would need elevated permissions
empty cairn
@steady iron because im using my auth token and send data to another channel (where i have editor permissions)
upper bough
Rene, silly question.. add Custom Widget and then OPEN EDITOR right?
steady iron
yep @upper bough , correct
remember to click on the custom widget first, to get the option
upper bough
uhmm i modify everything.. html, css, js and json and nothing happen
steady iron
what are you trying to achieve?
upper bough
test the github ones
steady iron
First of all, by nothing do you mean the widget is now just a transparent rectangle? What is the trigger?
A good start would be to press F12 to open the dev tools and verify if there are any errors
on the Console tab
upper bough
no fields show 😦
steady iron
usually that means something is breaking it
oldest tactic: from less to more, shave everything out, only leave { } and then add one field
empty cairn
so its impossible to send data without owners jwt i guess 
steady iron
some API accept the overlay token, but what you want to do goes out of an overlay, so I don't think it will work using Overlay token
empty cairn
thanks for answer
steady iron
I would say to try a different approach, whats stopping you from having the widget in the channel where the change will happen?
empty cairn
im lazy

Hello! I need some help
I want to setup a !trivia command that pull a random question that I have added into a query that the viewers on my channel can answer for loyalty points. They are given 2 minutes to answer and then the answer will be displayed
Ex:
!trivia
Streamelements: Trivia has been started. You have 2 minutes to answer! Round 1: What goes up and never comes down?
then they input like !triviaAnswer A Balloon
Streamelements: @wise vaultever viewer You are incorrect. 45 seconds remain for Round 1
Streamelements: No one answered the question correctly. 0 loyalty points have been rewarded.
then moves onto round 2
and the trivia can be stopped by a command like !triviastop or something
Streamelements: Round 2: What has a head and a tail but no body?
Viewer comments a coin or coin or the tags I set as correct
Streamelements: @wise vaultever viewer is CORRECT! 50 loyalty points have been awarded!
Streamelements: Round 3: etc
etc
etc
You get the gist
tepid elbow
@steady iron oh okay. well then i guess ill have to go with nightbot. but thanks
upper bough
@pulsar willow is very heavy task that you wanna archive.. hope anyone can help you out
pulsar willow
I have a decent understanding of programming, just need help starting out and getting all the variables listed and such
viral patrol
I think that this would be possible, but it would require external resources to connect to SE API (to handle points and send messages as bot)
To keep logic together (besides those two mentioned above, but connecting to them via XHR) you could use custom widget
You could do something else as well - you can use IRC trivia scripts (for eggdrop, mIRC, BitchX, irssi and so on), convert them a bit (to send !addpoints xyz 50 before announcement message) and connect them to Twitch directly.
pulsar willow
What would be the most beneficial way? Through IRC trivia scripts or custom widget?
viral patrol
The easiest way - I think IRC scripts as whole logic is already there. Custom widget would require writing whole logic from the scratch + writing man in the middle script as well, to communicate over API with StreamElements to add points or send messages as bot.
pulsar willow
Makes sense
crude crest
is there a common at the end of your value one?
Also you have no "" around your identifiers so "type": "Sound-Input" etc
"audio": {
"type": "sound-input",
"label": "alert sound",
"value": "url"
}
}
you're right @crude crest

@pulsar willow
I am not sure if you figured it out, but if you have experience with streamlabs chatbot scripting previously I might have a useful resource for you. Made a similar lightweight scripting environment for streamelements which runs on your local computer. Still in early development but works well, especially if you wish to integrate the StreamElements API within your application
It is built with Python 3.7 instead of Python 2.7 though
Compressed a python environment into a .exe so no actual install is needed as long as you are using supported packages
pulsar willow
I have a little experience with chatbot, I just don't like their software for it compared to SE
viral patrol
@upper bough just lx seems to be me 😉
upper bough
Its your widget the "AlertOnProgress" right?
viral patrol
It is
upper bough
will you guide me trought it?
viral patrol
Sure thing! Once it loads it gets current state of tracked counter (for example follower counter), to not display alerts for previous milestones met
(so lets assume your counter is at 50, and your milestones are 10,20,30,40,50,60,70)
On loads it disables everything up to 50
And once 60 or 60 is reached it plays alert.
It can play custom code alert. The code on github contains default alertbox
upper bough
i write a idea post to add a preview of the widget on github, so everyone can see what it doesn't and dont say this is BS, cause i can't make it work.. so i have like a reference to see .. "ooh that was suppose to happen" u know what i mean?
viral patrol
Github is a place for widgets that are for people with coding knowledge, some of them make it to the #widget-share (for less tech people), then if there are no problems and they are easy to setup they make it to the Widget gallery.
So if you made widget from github work for you, you are definitely a tech person 😉
upper bough
yeah yeah i know.. but i was thinking "its this right?" "what its the right behavior"

lofty wigeon
I have a script set to run using the customapi command...everything is working fine... I'll do a print message so the response goes to the user as a whisper/reply...
One issue we're finding is that twitch's reply windows don't automatically update with the new information being sent to the user. They have to close the pop-up DM box completely and re-open it from the top of the screen.
Is there a endpoint in the API that would allow us to message a person as a whisper via the bot like we can send messages to our general chat?
... and would that even solve the whisper problem? I'm guessing no... but... have to ask.

TLDR from my post above: Twitch whispers suck; is it better to have the SE.bot use a reply endpoint to make the whispers better or is that just a Twitch thing? Does a Reply/Whisper endpoint even exist in the API?
crude crest
Hmm odd. I've never had a problem with the /w command not working from the command line with the bot. 🤔
lofty wigeon
it's more like... the script will reply but the whisper box doesn't get refreshed with the new info unless the user completely closes the message box and open it from the list of incoming DMs.
I feel like this is a twitch UI thing (pretty sure of it).... but not sure if there is an existing endpoint to let me have the bot whisper the user and if that would even solve the problem.

Hey all, was told to ask here from #helpdesk-twitch. I'm currently using Alpha Gaming's sub/follow train and I'm looking for some help doing a bit of extra customization with it. I have some experience with Java from years ago but not enough to go about doing this myself
Quick vid of what I've got right now
What I'm looking to do is make it so that the white is on the left moving right as the train progresses as well as fine tune the actual bar so it's the same as the shield bar above it
Currently can't change the colour without removing the transparency of the train, and don't know how to fine tune the bar
If I could share my overlay with someone and they could help me out that would be amazing! @ me if you can help!
Main issue is that the "background line colour" is always in the background so I can't actually add a transparent background
As the line is meant to disappear, not appear
Actually, might have just found a workaround
Nope, nevermind

Guys, I'm reading some texts from an API on a custom command response, on the responses I put some streamelements 'Variables' but those variables doesn't trigger when my bot responds
is there a way to trigger those variables when they are on a text retrieved from an API?
mild cipher
@rose summit add &randnum=${random.1-50} to the end of the link in the command, and in the pastebin, use ${random.#}
But since you want two different ranges, it'll be easier to use args instead.
Link: &args=${random.1-50},${random.51-200}
Paste:
Test 1 ${args.1}
Test 2 ${args.2}
hmm got it @mild cipher , i have like 10args on this custom command, but I think I can do this way
tks for the help!
mild cipher
oh and btw the SE ${random...} variable is min inclusive, max exclusive. so those two ranges will return 1 to 49 (inclusive) and 51 to 199 (inclusive)
rose summit
ahhh ok! so I have to change to 1-51 and 51-201 right?
mild cipher
Yup!
rose summit
worked like a charm! tks man!
the only thing I had to change was the Link: &args=${random.1-50},${random.51-200}
it is Link: ?args=${random.1-50},${random.51-200}
if I put with the & it responds 'Paste not found'
mild cipher
Ah right yes, out of habit I just write & in case you were already attaching other variables lol
Everything else you can attach can be found here: https://thefyrewire.com/docs/api/twitch/pastebin/#parse-paste-with-variables

okay so i cant write to save my life but im lookin to have some kind of response to a .txt file for a counter. Ex i have a win counter on screen and would like to update it via a button push on my stream deck. how in the heck would i go about that?
crude crest
You can't directly do that through streamelements, but if you're using obs.live you can just make a button that calls the !count command that you made 🙂

I am trying to get started with custom widgets and have a few ideas. Can someone point me towards the documentation/any helpful resources for getting started?
rugged rapids
Check the channel header for documentation.
misty raft
roger that
rugged rapids
Also you can look at other peoples projects and see how they coded the widgets.
misty raft
okay

Hello SE Gods,
Is there a way to work with alerts API?
https://kvstore.streamelements.com/v1/channel/alerts
As far as I know it is using different authorization than user's JWT Token.

guys is there a way to autofill some args when doesn't put the arg on the command? ex.
!rank
${customapi.https://api.com/game/rank/ArsenioGG}
!rank snipereagle
${customapi.https://api.com/game/rank/${args.1}}
I want my chat to see my rank in game only typing !rank, but they can see their rank by typing !rank theirnickname

I decided to try my hand at altering a widget from the github repo (https://github.com/StreamElements/widgets/tree/master/CumulativeGoal) - long story short, my streamer wanted a donation (tip) bar that updated automatically each stream session (rather than manually refreshing the goal progress). I essentially just started pulling out all the variables that weren't relevant and frankensteining this: https://jsfiddle.net/turinqui/v60k75gb/7/
It works how I want it to, but I noticed that stripping out some of the variables in the fields .json it broke the settings completely - for example, if I removed the labelStroke variable the overlay editor went from this https://i.imgur.com/2JzpFxu.png to this: https://i.imgur.com/h72jGnZ.png.
Can anyone shed some light on what the interaction is here?

@mild cipher is there a addpoints variable? or just the default addpoints command?
on the pastebin api, you know a way to add random lines with different points value to give automatically to viewers??
Something like
Command: !begformoney
Paste:
A nice person passed by and gave u ${args.1} points.
OMG! You just received ${args.2} points from a rich old lady!
There's no one on the street right now =(
Where ${args.1} = ?args=${random.1-51} and ${args.2} = ${random.90-101}

Custom event list question: On the Twitch side, it always loads with prior activities but Mixer does not. Any ideas?
broken coyote
some the events arent loading correctly, causing it to not load
timber elbow
hey just curious, would the commands, alerts, and other functions on mixer for the SE bot not working be a dev api issue?

I'm trying to use @mild cipher train widget but running into an issue. If I have 3 Overlays start, game, end for example. Train starts on Start, when I move to Game...the train shows active but the timer looks to be way off.
example: game scene
immediately change to end scene:
It sits the correct amount of time but obviously way off in its location vs time.
mild cipher
Have you ensured that the overlay is set to not shutdown?
rich pine
yeah, just went through all them checking again
If I put them on the same scene both visible it is happy. If I make one non visible and trigger. does the same thing when i turn it back on
mild cipher
How do you mean by 'both'?
rich pine
so this is my layout:
if i take the Apex Overlay in Sources and move it into BRB. and both are visible in BRB
it does everything right. If I do the same thing, but make the Apex Overlay Source non-visible and do it again, I get the above. Same for just moving from Apex Legends Scene to BRB, location is off but timer working
if it would be easier i could share screen after dinner, wife is calling...don't want the wrath 🙂
