Did you get a "Channel already claimed" message?
More than likely your accounts need to be merged! - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allow faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and fill out the form here: https://streamelements.com/contact with each token correctly labelled
boa tarde estou com um problema pois vinculei ao streamelements uma conta do youtube que não deveria e não consigo adicionar a correta tem como me ajuda?
Question for merging Twitch and YouTube accounts. Is there any possibility that any currently existing overlays would be removed or changed during the merging process? I'm, needing to add a YT account to my currently existing Twitch account, but want to make sure nothing will be removed before submitting the JWT's
Adding an yt-account won't change things on your twitch-account. Your just getting a separate account for YT. You wil see when your clicking your account right top an extra account with under your name youtube.
Awesome. Thank you for the info! I assume I will just need to submit a Contact Us form with the JWT tokens for each?
Lastly, we are apart of the community creators program, does this change anything or is it the same process?
I never needed an contact us form. Just go to https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels and at the bottom there stands add yt-channel.
Well the issue is that the youtube I need to merge is an already claimed channel. SO I don't have the option to just manually merge them like that
I had that issue also. Try logging of with your twitch account and than logging in with your yt account. Then go to the same site as i said before and go to security than close account. Your yt-account/channel will be closed then. Than log off and log in with twitch-account and try it again.
Just to clarify, are you getting delayed events, or none in general?
4 hours is a possibility, but you could very well not get live events based on how YouTube has designed their system
How long does live support take? I’ve been waiting for 3 days. Have I done something wrong or is this normal?
why can't I connect through YouTube?
why does it not show the option
@eager lily
Have you tried to log out and log in?
na
didn't know how to lmao
but I reinstalled streamelements
and it keeps on doing updates
like an infinite loop
can someone help me with this?
Hello I have a problem that I like to unlock tipply PSC function, but in streamlements when I click on the channel income and in SE. Pay to I don’t have a “Create Account” button and I have 100 followers on YT How can I change this? Help?
Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.

Hello again I would do to reset my Streamelemets account on the SE tab. Pay because I get a wrong email and don’t see Tab Tipply settings ;c
hello i am back to streaming and the feed is not show me new subscribers
Hello!
I need an info.
I've logged for first with my facebook page, and after I've added my YouTube account. Streamelements has created separate accounts, but when I'm on obs, seems se.live see only facebook account connected, so I have only alerts for it (not subscriber alerts) and if I click go live, it show only option for facebook. With a plugin seems I can do multi streaming at same time, but not sure if eventually alerts will show up....some help?
someone can subscribe to me so i can check if i fixed the problem?
Buenas no se si alguien me puede ayudar en español
greetings very good
I wanted a little help I'm new and I'm dealing with youtube and I wanted to have an idea of what stream elements things work on youtube currently
Posting this here looking for any insight.
I have all of my overlays working with YouTube while livestreaming. It procs alerts for subscribers and updates my latest subscriber box no problem.
However it does not show alerts for channel memberships or update my latest member whatsoever.
When I emulate it through streamelements, everything works. But it realtime the alerts and trackers seem to not work. Any ideas? ♥
Could I have a staff member DM me please? Having some trouble with my YT account & stream elements linking together correctly. In specific: Notifications for subscribers, tips, super chats, etc are not pulling and I can't get the chat bot to work either. Thank you.
Ive been working really hard recently to begin my journey in content creation. i am going to be streaming on youtube, but for some reason when I go live, none of my alert boxes work. however when i emulate in stream elements, they all work when im not live. im so confused on what to do. does anyone know what to do. thank you so much
Every staff should lose their role, wtf is this customer support.
No, just 4 days
I’ve asked so many times thinking they didn’t notice
dude im sorry
that really sucks
yea i love how simple stream elements is, but its upsetting that my widgets arent working when im alive despite them working in emulation
Due to changes by YouTube there can be a delay up to 4 hours with subscriber notifications. This is the new intended way for receiving events from YouTube by their design.
Are your alerts delayed more than 4 hours?
i got all of the audio notifications at once like an hour after they happened. however the gifs still do not pop up on stream or in obs.
OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
let me see if this works
wait why tf would they have a 4 hour delay that cannot be right lol
It's a YouTube decision; no idea why they did it.
have any big streamers brought it up yet? cause thats insane
I accidentally had both alerts on from stream elements and stream labs and noticed how elements would randomly start doing alerts an hour late while labs did it instantly. I honestly like elements more, only if it were as responsive.
Hi, it’s been now more than 2 weeks I’ve been facing issues with the streamelements bot responding to the commands
Whenever i’m live (public live) the timer commands work, but the trigger commands don’t, not responsive at all for few hours / an entire stream
In another scenario : the timer works still but there is a huge latence when triggering commands (60 secs or so)
3rd scenario : The bot has logged in the chat but not responsive neither for the timer commands / nor the trigger commands
I’ve been linking / unliking streamelements to my YouTube channel multiple times, nothing makes it better
It still stops responding randomly in the middle of the stream / at the beginning
Would love to get more support about this issue, I saw it affects some other content creators too
I see that sponsorships and partnerships was removed for youtube streamers. will it ever return?
just noticed this last week.
I'm trying to test the youtube chat on the overlay while offline, but it doesn't show anything from chat, how do I fix this?
Go live with public stream.
ok so no chance I can test the chat offline, isn't it?
nope
ok
hello i need help
is there just a simple and clean label option in StreamElements to show Superchat Amount and Tip amount per sessions? Seems silly Twitch has more label options than YouTube
had no issues doing that with Twitch settings. But sad to see no option for it on YouTube's end
I am having an issue with Stream Elements goal tracker counting gifted memberships twice... once for the gift being purchased by the viewer, then again when it gets assigned to a viewer
@meager summit ⤵️
Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
@silk nebula ⤵️
Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
Not sure how I would take a screenshot of this particular issue.
If the members (think you guys have it listed as sponsors for some reason) goal is currently at say 10/50... and someone gifts 5 memberships. Upon receiving the gift, the member count will go to 15/50... then YouTube will apply those gifts to 5 different viewers... taking the member count to 20/50... meaning stream elements has counted the memberships twice
For the variations, when doing "memberships joined for" is the "amount" how many months they've been a member for? like twitch's re-subs? or is "amount" how many memberships that were sent?
anyone know if the chat bot has a variable for YouTube User ID?
Can I do a private stream to test it?
Hi guys, i'm having trouble with the chat box overlay (streaming with obs to youtube). The overlay does appear, but the chat messages are not showing up. Can somebody help? By the way, the chat messages work fine within the simluation in the overlay editor, just the overlay in obs somehow doesn't receive the chat messages.
amount in months
blessed, thank you
hello I have succesfullyadded a chat box but When Ever a chat goes on it doesnt appear
please help
Checking back in with the double counting of members on YouTube issue. I'm doing a memberthon in a few days, and having to constantly manually go in, and subtract out half the members is going to be a huge drag
@daring seal ^^^
My withdrawals from SE Pay are still failing and no answer to my customer support email... Man it would be nice to pay rent lol
hi
my mercury updating youtube channel banner isnt turning up and i tried pressing stop then pressing revert to original youtube banner then it still shows the option to stop even when i have pressed to revert it but my main issue is that the banner isnt coming up rip help pls
This seems like it should be more simple than it is but my new sub alert allows me to change font/color of everything but the sub's name. I assumed it would be the secondary text, but changing that color does not seem to matter. Any help here is appreciated.
i have over 100 subscribers and i can't use se.pay tab, :/
@misty mist ⤵️
SE.PAY is available for streamers who are at least 18 years old, with bank account under their name in one of the following countries, and have at least 101 followers (Twitch/Trovo/Facebook) / 101 subscribers (YouTube):
Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States.
If you meet these criteria and don’t see SE.Pay, let us know.
For information on SE.Pay payment methods, their fees, and settlement times see https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/fees
Is there a way to have your alrert video be square? I made it as a square, yet it's coming in with black sides to make it 16:9 dimensions. Anyone an expert on this?
I have the exact same problem (see above). Somebody please assist, this doesn't seem like a user error, but a bug in the communication between streamelements and youtube
Streamelements is not capturing any of YT memberships, they show in youtube studio, but not getting pulled over to SE.
No alerts or tracking for them on stream either. Is this a known issue currently? Just wondering so I can change my tracker to superchats instead.
why isnt my most recent subscriber label updating?
Hi is there any way to activate se pay on my account?
The !watchtime command is directly tied to the Loyalty system. The Loyalty system must be enabled for viewers' watchtime to count up.
To enable Loyalty, please go to the Loyalty section of your account: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
Watchtime counts up every 10 minutes alongside Loyalty points, and only while the stream is live. Reruns will not be counted.
Please note that watchtime is not tracked by Twitch and there is no way to retroactively apply past watchtime to viewers.
Hi there I don’t know what’s going on but I’ve been trying to stream using OBS studios With stream elements I changed it over before because I thought maybe I might stream on twitch and I decide I may sort it out different dates so I switch back to my YouTube and today I go to lifestream and it won’t connect to the server I’ve tried everything I’ve deleted OBS studios re-downloaded it and it still won’t work I don’t know what to do
Hello
Obs settings > advanced > Bind to IP > set to default
Thank you so much you don’t know how much this problem is been driving me up the wall for the last past hour and a half
Same problem here
Can I get support on this issue?
Hey! so when I test my alerts in stream elements they work fine but when I stream they never show up when someone subscribers does anyone know how to help?
Hello everyone , I can 't connect the bot in any way , I added it to the moderators , I looked at the letter in the mail and there is no reaction from him in the chat , twitch everything is OK , for example , help solve the problem ?
Hi guys, anyone here who use StreamElements Loyalty System for Youtube Live?
Not possible. twitch only.
omg :(... tried Streamlabs earlier for youtube and its working, but now its not 😦
then my Loyalty Tab on StreamElements gone i connect my youtube channel.
It's never there.
i mean the contests.
Tied to loyalty.
An error occurred.
Could not fetch contest data
ohhh shit i saw it. should switch back to twitch tab lol.

god damn it, it been like 5 hours searching for youtube live loyalty system ahaha
I have a question about the chat bot. Does the !queue work on youtube? It would be nice to have a list of people that joins the queue
Unfortunately no as it's tied to a twitch only feature atm.
Hey! New to StreamElements. Quick question about it. Went live on YouTube for the first time last night, but when I check the StreamElements dashboard, there's no stream info. Also, none of my alerts popped up for subscribers during the stream. Any way to fix this?
need help
Hi quick question! Is there anyway that i can set up a widget or browser source on obs studio and have it only display a certain element of a website or a way to make everything else transparent? Any help would be great! Thank you
how do i get the commands to work on youtube they seem to work but not really like uptime it says up for then its blank
how do i change the thumbnails of my overlays ?? here plz help me
I'm logged in to SE using my twitch credentials. When I try and connect my YT account it says it's been claimed already. How is this possible? How do I get it on my own SE account?
I have the same, I think is beause we "create" or login with YT account AND twitch account, but we did not connected the YT account FROM the Twicth account
Hi @eager lily , I had one issue with the youtube Chat bot , when i typed any comand is not working, do i need to give moderator rights? how to give the moderator rights? or how to connect the chat bot?
I had this same issue. You must have logged in with YouTube in the past. Log in with your Youtube account, close that SE account (make sure you back up any overlays you might want to keep). Then, log in with Twitch and connect your YouTube
Hi @ruby lion , could you please tell me hot to close the SE account?
@cunning rampart ⤵️
Did you get a "Channel already claimed" message?

Ah, apparently the bot has an even better idea @cunning rampart ! 😅
yeah!! haha i was about to close the account (Already found it) hahaha that is nice!, hey another question, do you know why the *** my chatbot is not working on youtube?
Did you add it as a moderator on your channel?
Noup, i think no, how can I add SE as mod @ruby lion ??
Head to Youtube Studio, go to settings on the left. Select the community tab and add Streamlabs YouTube channel as moderator (I can't post the link here)
awesome let me try , thank you so much bro!
Is working now!! thank you so much @ruby lion !!! hey last question, sorry for bother you, but has a tiny delay right? is any way to reduce it?
Not that I know of. It makes sense for there to be a delay though between when you enter a command in chat and when the bot replies (from a dev perspective at least)
I think you are right, anyway, thank you so much man!
help me with this, why there are so many same favorite overlays of same custom overlay, its not only 6, they're 9 of them and all are same, but the URL of overlay is different of all why ?? HELPPPPPP
If they're all different URL, then they're seen as "different" overlays. It looks to me like you just duplicated it 8 times. Were you trying to move or rename it at all, or accidentally click duplicate?
nope not at all, i have tried redoing it, like i removed them from favorites, like all of them, then i started to favorite them one by one , but still the copies of overlay increases as i scroll
Hmm, happens on my end too. Definitely seems like a bug with the "Favorites" tab. Doesn't happen in "All Overlays", but Favorites duplicates a lot
yeah, then what should i do about this bug ??
i thought this is happening with me only
I think your best bet would be to report it on the StreamElements Community Board, under the Problems tab. You can find the link to it in #💭︱feedback-and-ideas
I hope I am in the right spot. If not please send me. I am using stream elements for my alerts and all is set fantastic except the SuperChat text is not showing. Is there a [code] that will call the actual superchat text?
I will check back and hope someone can tell me if I am in the wrong spot for support. I see {name} {amount} {currency} {sender} {tier} but I need to know if I can call for the text with {text} or something
nevermind went with a different alert
Hello, I created an account for youtube before realizing I could merge my current account to include youtube. Is there a way to unlink the first account so I can claim the channel on my main SE account?

Awesome thank you @daring seal
hello my stream alerts not working and dashboard is blank activity feed is blank when i emulate alert my alert works but not when i stream
Having the same issue. I think it has to do with the awful way YouTube handles subscription notifications. If they have their subs set to private, there won't be an alert. Otherwise, I think there's like a 4 hour delay
YouTube does have a specific system set for the live events, which can result in events being delayed/not arriving to the feed
Hey! so when I test my alerts in stream elements they work fine but when I stream they never show up when someone subscribers does anyone know how to help?
Всем привет, кто подскажет, как настроить оповещения о донатах с выводом в приложение стрим чамп? И почему при подключении второго метода пополнения по карте сайт пишет что у меня меньше чем 100 подписчиков, хотя у меня больше.
hi, i came to here like 3 times and my activity feed is still not working
how can i fix this?
ok.. good luck to you
Is your streaming application having the alert source visible? For example in OBS if the eye is grayed out it won't display for anyone.
Yes it is
Hey
my stream elements activity feed in obs studio wont register as youtube
it only shows the twitch account
ahh i reloaded and it works now
how do I export my stream elements twitch commands to my stream elements youtube channel bot?
just realized we lost sponsorships, meaning the only things left for youtube is the tipping page, the bot, and merch. the routes still exists for it, it's just not public facing. is there actually any work being done to actually bring features for all the newer emerging YouTube streamers? I love yall's product, it's so much better than the competition all around, but the fact we're losing features makes me so sad.
I appreciate you and @cunning rampart
If I merge accounts (Twitch and YT), can i give someone editor access to each so they can help with alerts, etc? or should I not merge them?
I would definitely recommend merging. It'll make it a lot easier for you to share your overlays across both your channels.
Clicking your profile on the top right of streamelements web page, then clicking your channel name and selecting "Channel settings", you can invite managers with different levels of authorization. Not sure though if they're independant to each channel or shared across both
Ok, I just had them make alerts for both and they say different things for each platform. Wouldn't want them to have issues.
Is there way to have my chat show up sidewide across. The screen. Can this be used with YouTube?
how do i get my tips and gamescreen all on one
is streem roblox a task bar app how do i get overlays when im in that tab
Hi, I was trying to get my friend's alert box to work and we tested it with an alt that we subscribed to the channel in while a live stream was playing and it did not work. Please help. (Yes I've tested it on the website where you simulate it, and it works there)
Due to Youtube design, certain live events will be delayed/not appear
So all sub events will not occur? or...
how do i live stream freom this point on
Is the bot down for YouTube, it says it joined but it does not respond any commands?
@midnight vigil ⤵️
To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
Hi! My dashboard is telling me that I'm ineligible for SE.Pay but I'm in the U.S. and I have well over 100 followers. Is this a YouTube monetization issue, or am I missing something in the setup?
@slate badger ⤵️
Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
Can you provide your channel name also, no links.
Thanks so much! Setup is complete and it seems to be working now. 🙂
Hello, I need help with streamelements, I connect with my youtube account, but streamelements does not give any information about my direct, like the number of subscribers or the alertbox
How can I activate alerts on streamlabs obs from streamelements donations ? Please help

@cloud drift Hi! I think it's part of StreamElements Mercury - you can look on https://mercury.streamelements.com/dashboard/banner
And you can ask in #beta_mercury if you have issues :)
how do i add an se overlay to se live obs?
@finite dock ⤵️
To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website) and check Shutdown source when not visible as shown in this GIF: https://imgur.com/a/2JhJD0S
Someone just gifted memberships and I have alerts setup for it, but it did not appear on OBS
Due to changes by Youtube there can be a delay up to 4 hours with subscriber notifications. This is the new intended way for receiving events from Youtube by their design.
So it could take 4 hours to receive the notification?
That is correct
Is this is Youtube's decision, not StreamElements?
I have no idea how long it has been 😛
Can someone help me?
I was live yesterday?
I got this while I was live?
So I login to Stream Elements with YouTube and select the correct sub account
It is working for my twitch (I livestream on Twitch and YouTube at the same time)
Being able to get gifted notifications on stream via the overlay is great, but I’d love to have a count somewhere on my overlay showing who has gifted the most memberships. Is this possible? I can’t seem to find it when editing my template
Similar to how there is top superchatter
I might have a solution for the sub event. On youtube everyone has the possibility to subscribe to a channel. But for a sub event to happen, the subscriber must have his privacy setting off. In other words, everyone can see to what pages he subscribed. If he has this on private, so no one can see what channels he is subscribed to, there will be no sub event. You can change the settings here: Go to your youtube page > go to the right corner with your profile pic > Settings > Privacy > uncheck the option "keep all my subscriptions private". Then sub again, see if that helped.
How do I get my overlays to show in a tab Roblox or steam
Hello, anyone know why the streamelements activity feed module doesn't seem to see superchats? All the other activity feed things show up as seen in the screenshot below but superchats are just absent entirely. Filtering just by superchats makes for a totally empty list. Live while streaming they weren't showing up at all either so it's not a "marked as read" thing.
on my tip link, i don't want se to show my name I want my channel name how do i do that.
SE.Live refuses to forget about my Twitch channel after I switched to YouTube, so I cannot use the SE.Live activity feed since it only see's my Twitch channel, how do I fix this?
How do I get the activity feed in OBS to reflect Youtube now instead?
trying to stream on youtube and im met with this when im trying to stream
@native star ⤵️
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
I keep trying to locate this because I feel like it existed before and I can't think of a good reason it wouldn't be a thing... but I'm not seeing any widget for YouTube streaming end credits. Even mercury has something like that for rendering into video, but I can't render and update that during my stream obviously.
how do i reinvite the chat bot
Will there ever be a section for a view counter for YouTube?
Anyone know why when i do my socials command, streamelements sends it as two messages?
I guess it's a bug in the Chatbot I have the same issue on Trovo see: #helpdesk-trovo message
Hey, guys!
Would be great to somehow change the way to add SE bot to a YouTube channel or make it more clear and easy.
There are many copycats of SE on YouTube, and when someone is trying to paste the link https://www.youtube.com/streamelements, he literally can't understand which channel is real. Alas, the verification icon doesn't show in search box, so it's hard to understand who is who.
I just finished the call with one user of SE, who showed me this problem, so I want you to know about that.
Thank you!

anyone know why I can't login to youtube via obs and stream elements? Having lot of issues with it
every time I try to login to youtube I get this issue
Question.
I'm in the middle of rebranding all my stuff (used to be FiendRiver).
How would I go about changing my merch/donate/etc urls on StreamElements to match the new username?
Everything but merch can be done via simple logging out and back in. Merch require staff reset.
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Oh

I was looking at the wrong channel
Unfortunately youtube is special and requires a bit more work than twitch does.
Well, I need to do it on both Twitch and YT.... Is the YT one not possible at the moment?
Youtube would require them to internally switch stuff over.
Twitch can be done by the bit above.
Damn, alright. So I'll try the Twitch stuff for now, I guess.
Mostly just need to fix the merch and donation links.
For youtube you'll fill this form out (disregard message) and give your accountID from here.
Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
Just mention you want to update your tip/merch/user links.
Got it. Thanks. I'll finish dinner and start working on it. 👍
Unfortunately as usernames can only be used once you can't have it across both platforms. You can have the desired one for twitch and then choose an alternative one for youtube.
hmmm... right... I remember having the two swapped.... I guess I can ask them to just do /AvaddovYT on the YT one.
wait, little confused... which form?

Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you.
Ignore the message. Click link.
gotcha, thanks
I have made about $35.00 in merch alone and want to deposit it. I did but I get an email saying it was not able to be deposited. How do I get that money since I have already made it and deposited it? I am upset about this because I have been trying to get to work for a couple months now.
hello, I'm currently having problems with the mercury's dynamic banner system. I have made the banner but when I press save, it says it has failed to save. When I go back into the edit section of the banner, it has all of my changes still there but it won't work when I press apply
how do I fix this?
I don't receive gifted alerts in my activity feed NOR my alert box on youtube. Please help 😦
hi, I'm currently having problems with the overlays as when I want to add the overlay It is simply too big and is only showing a quarter of the actual overlay.
@visual lantern ⤵️
The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png

I wanted to describe the issue real quick: if we double click Twitch SE shareable URL alerts, they are installed just fine. However, if we double click YouTube or FB SE alerta, we're redirected to SE's homepage and the alerts are not installed.
This suddenly started happening around the time that SE's made some changes to their alerts/overlays system
We've been making SE alerts for years using the same process but we can't figure out why they stopped working.
Is there a way to change the streamelements chatbot name to something custom? I could do this streaming on Twitch, but don't see the option streaming on youtube.
Not possible
Just highlighting this as I would still love help with it
Don't think it's possible ATM.
hey can i have a suggestion for a keyboard cam for streaming? i had an idea to start a channel on but a keyboard cam would be required
Hi, can I know who are the administrators for this chat since I have some concern about streamelement bot for YouTube please
I have a very annoying spammers on my channel (pornography and sexual ads) the issue that the bot can’t stop them although it filters the viewers comments very well????
I believe they don’t post words other than their name and link
I would really appreciate any help regarding this issue
I can provide snap shot of those spammers from my hidden users in YouTube
you have to set the source to 1920 and 1080
I’ve had to turn my chat to subs only and it’s stopped it as they were rampant in mine too!
That would be a great solution but since I am trying to gain new subscribers it will limit my exposure to interact with potential subscribers , but really appreciate the advice buddy I think it will be my last resort 😬
I was hesitant for the same reason but it’s actually made my sub count grow much faster than it did beforehand.
Like a ~40% increase on growth compared to growth before
Hmmmm I will consider that for sure since you have a positive feedback
Oh and lastly I’ve got a timed message from my streamelements bot explaining that it’s subs only because of the nsfw bots
I think it’s my only resort for now till I find another solution with streamelement bot. Thx
I just wanted to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the settings for Timers. I'm looking to have a timer that will not fire more than once every 30 minutes. Am I correct in understanding that I can only adjust how many lines it'll take within 5 minutes to trigger a Timer? I really want to fully cut over from StreamLabs, but I can't seem to figure out a way to have timers that aren't just happening every 5 minutes in SE. Thanks!
I'm just wondering what are the steps to be affiliate for Magic The Gathering..
Is there anyway i can view the viewer queue?
Okay so for some reason I cannot click the 'Get Support' button on the website? So I will ask here
On StreamLabs I can see my history on Youtube:
However I see nothing on StreamElements:
Has to be public
Hi, Hoping someone can help. When I got to stream from Youtube; OBS seems to freeze after about 5 minutes and the stream itself stops. I've researched this and mostly the settings align with tutorials online and I don't seem to have this problem when I stream to Facebook
My activity feed does not show gifted member alerts at ALL. I only get alerts for the people who became a member.
^Specifically, THIS has NEVER shown on my activity feed
which means my alerts for gifted do not work
@calm stratus Hi!
If you are 18+ and have bank account in one of the supported countries, give us your account ID:
Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
More info about SE.Pay:
SE.PAY is available for streamers who are at least 18 years old, with bank account under their name in one of the following countries, and have at least 101 followers (Twitch/Trovo/Facebook) / 101 subscribers (YouTube):
Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States.
If you meet these criteria and don’t see SE.Pay, let us know.
For information on SE.Pay payment methods, their fees, and settlement times see https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/fees
uh no sry for wasting your time
@calm stratus There is this way for consideration: If you are not of legal age, then you will need to have your parents consent to use their details when setting up SE.Pay.
If you don't have bank account, it's nothing we can help you with.
@versed tangle Hi! No, it's not possible, because YouTube doesn't provide a viewer count API point, sorry.
I put this in the twitch help already but could also be YT related. I was streaming on YT before then switched to twitch and now when ever i go to launch stream it atomically tries to launch YT stream. Then fails because I have gone in setting a switched it to twitch.
So I think readying all the previous messages we can agree that there is a bug with alerts on YouTube and with StreamElements.
Resolved in #helpdesk-twitch
I stream to both YT and Twitch at the same time, is there a way to use a custom named bot for both?
Hi! No, Custom bot name is not available on YouTube.
my youtube chat is not showing in streamElements chat box. what should i do?
@signal burrow Hi! Was your stream public and live?

Hi all, is there a way to emulate chat messages in streamelements (for youtube of course)?
There is not.
Hi there, im looking to get some help with stream elements not working during stream. It’ll activate commands and timed commands when it feels like it. And I’ve tried it for both sub-only and non-sub chat mode. (I prefer sub only mode)
Would anyone be able to help me with this?
I'm still having this trouble and no one seems to be able to help
I have no filters on, it just appears that gifted isn't an alert at all, even in the activity feed
Hello can someone enable SE Pay for me im from Czechia and my channel has more than 100 subs.
Hello I just started using stream elements with my YouTube account and no information is being presented on the dashboard or activity feed.
Hi, I can't connect my YouTube channel with StreamElements
Website is having issues. Please wait.
Ok thanks for message.
Oh no, I have an important stream tonight, I so hope you guys will be able to get it running again! Sending you all the best and hopeful thoughts! ❤️
me too, I hope it will work in a couple hours 
I have problems with the activity feed, it does not register subscribers or superchat and therefore the alerts do not go off.
what can i do to solve it?
Hello everyone
I’ve tried turning off the hardware acceleration that doesn’t do anything
I’ve tried basically everything I turn off my firewall
The only browser stores that doesn’t work is the chat bot and the alerts
What should I do to see SE.Sponsorship section in Revenue?

To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
Thank
That only becomes visible if you are given an offer to that account.
ok so I'm not logged in to YouTube I'm logged into twitch but when I go to start streaming it pulls the YouTube streaming tab how do i fix this?
Please don't ask questions in multiple places, it will only cause confusion.
so if what i'm gathering from pulling my hair out all evening trying to get my stream chat widget to work so i can customize its CSS is correct... a stream has to be public for a chat box to work?
there's no way to send test messages without being live and public?
Correct
.........
right, then
is it possible to set up song/media request for YouTube chat? not seeing it listed in the SE commands or modules for YT
Not available for yt.
is there a timeline on that getting added or is it not possible?
No ETA.

hi, can anybody tell me if they know this, does the "Youtube live now" stream send notifications for users if i am live ?
i know the youtube events (or scheduled) stream does
Can anyone help me, my stream subscriber notifications dont work, the test notifications do work, but when i am streaming nothing happens when a new person subscribes, and the subscriber goal does not sync as well.
same thing happened on streamlabs notifications, but i tried streamelements ones, and the customization is better here as well, but still having the same issues.
anybody?
I dont belive notifications are sent if the subscriber has not pressed the bell icon, but it would show up in subscriptions tab
Do your notifications on stream work, like subs or donations? xD
which one do i pick, there are 5 stream elements

Hi guys! I am trying to find a label for "most gifted sponsorship/member for YouTube" but I can't seem to find it?
I have seen other streamers use it. (are they using another software?)
(I am so sorry if it is listed somewhere but I am having trouble finding it in search)
Thanks for reading
Jørgen
@elder dagger were you able to fix the subscribers not showing issue? Im having trouble with it aswell
wait I found it, the subscriber has to have their privacy set so that their subs are not private
can anyone please help? does the chatter wheel work on a youtube stream? i have asked my subs to type !join to add to the wheel and it still shows a blank wheel
You have to contact the Support Email for that
The staff needs both the Old Link and your preferred Link Change
Also, the name may help too
Goto your dashboard > Revenue > Tipping Settings > Tipping Settings (top right) > Design
That means someone else connected with the username first and has it.
If it's yours you can swap it over to this one. Otherwise you'd have to choose another one.
@versed tangle ⤵️
Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
What are you trying to set it as?
I believe I see the issue. I don't believe you can have the name _kaz Would you be okay if your URL was kaz_
Reached out to devs, we'll see what happens
This depends if the account who owns the URL is active
And still has a Active StreamElements Account
Hello!
I have some problems connecting stream elements bot to youtube. Ive added the stream elements bot link to the moderator page. The bot isn't connecting to the chat. and it says bot failed to join when i ask it to join. What do i do wrong?
my SE keeps crashing...
Although I stream on Twitch, I'm sure the solution will be the same for both so please excuse the cross-post ... I'm trying to set up song requests on streamelements to use when I stream . Commands are working and I can get videos/songs into the queue. How do I get them to play though please? I use SL OBS. I've selected no video so presumably don't need an overlay but what do I need please?
Hi everyone! I am trying to create a "TOP 10 Superchat donations" in streamelements. So an accumulated box of combined superchats and I just can't seem to find an option to create anything other than the #1 most donations.
I would like to have #2 #3 #4 #5 and so on..
Is this in any way possible? and does anyone know to to create something like that? 🙂
Is there a way to setup the loyalty bot on YouTube
There is not.
Do you know if it's possible to do what I asked for? 🙂 Thank you for your time.
Thank you! I will try and ask there 🙂

Hello, #helpdesk-youtube .
I'm trying to figure out what's going on with the chat bot in YouTube. Right now, it's joining the chat, but I can't get any auto commands to run. To note, I have it tied to a YouTube Studio Account rather than a Brand Account.
I've followed all the steps in #helpdesk-youtube message and also closed out and reopened my StreamElements account after having issues adding the wrong account. Are there any other troubleshooting steps that I can take to try and get the bot working?
I don't think I see any feature request channels via this server, so I'll just repost a post I made in the reddit here

Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.

Hello there, in the Spam Filters, there is a Label that reads "Timeout Message when custom message is enabled" and I was wondering where I can enable that custom message?

so im having this issue with my audio (idk if mic or interface) where my mic audio isnt been picked up in OBS or discord even tho on my interface it shows that it's going through (rode podmic and AI-1) anyone else had a similar issue im checked all the common things already
Hey, how would I activate the custom timeout message?
i need help
how do i import overlays from the website to my obs
like alert overlays and stuff
Could I get someone to help me trouble shoot the Chatbot? It does not appear to be responding to me.
Ooohhh, this broke for some reason
Do I use Mercury if I am going to do video and/or live streams on Youtube? I am so confused on how to set everything up and there doesn't seem to be any sort of tutorial. In my mercury dashboard, if I click on subscriber goals it takes me to my videos instead.
Is there a tutorial I can follow to get things set-up?
Hey @magic ibex You can ask that in #beta_mercury
Any chances we YouTube streamers get to see some fixes as well?
Hello, i was wondering is there a way i can change my bot name on YouTube streaming instead of using the "StreamElement" account?
Reason why, is for more security on my end, last night, i was streaming on YouTube, and some how the streamelement bot started deleting all comments in my stream chat
Can someone look into my account, YouTube chat widgets are no longer working. This began the last time I asked for assistance on something.
What is required to get anyone to support the youtube helpdesk?
Chatbot no longer works for me, chat widget no longer works. Only my alerts.
Any changes since the chatbot and widget stopped working?
This stopped working the last time I was seeking help on why it was lagging on only the chat itself. But it at least worked. It hasn't worked since that day.
No changes on my end.
I logged out > back in > had the bot part my channel > removed it as a mod > reconnected it and still nothing.
I had MrBoost test his YouTube chat widget and it worked.
I can't even get the SE default chat widget to work.
So it's got to be something with my account
Can you share your account ID? I can take a look at the account
5d2b86a183642f04c5391627
also noticed when changing toggles on chat commands for the bot, it says saved in the upper right, but never retains the changes.
I did clear cache/cookies a moment ago as well without any change.
How did you part the bot?
dashboard > bot settings on the right > part channel > then removed it from my mod list on youtube > joined > added it once again to mod status > waited for the site to say it was connected and tried to communicate with it for the last 30 mins with no luck.
the chat and the bot issue are likely related. my labels and alerts work.
I didn't even know the bot was no longer working until I tried to check that while troubleshooting the chat widget
Did you do all of this while doing a live public stream? The bot can be kind of specific when it wants to work
I've done live private and live unlisted. Does it actually have to be public?
Yeah, unfortunately it will only work on live public streams
Alright I'll give that a test real quick
To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
Here are the full steps just in case
So is it safe to say the chat widget operates in the same way?
ah the chat works, I don't need to be live... but def needs the loaded managed stream to be public
bot has yet to join, noticed it takes about 90 seconds to typically happen
So the widget works, but the bot isn't showing in chat yet?
it just now joined
2:20 later it made it
it's not following commands though
but it's there lol
Were the commands working before?
yeah, stuff like !discord etc
ah working now
muted it > then unmuted it
OK that's all I needed. The requirement for being public while live was the issue. But that brings up a very legit question... how does any of this work if I do a member only event?
@strong surge thanks for the assistance. I'll worry about the member only stuff another time. Appreciate it!
Member only, as in only members can chat? And sure thing, for the delay in getting you some help here
There are member only streams. Private / Unlisted / Member Only / Public. Those are the 4 categories
I see, i'd have to ask about that functionality since I was under the impression that you could have a public member only stream
I too am having some issues with the Chatbot. When I click the "Join Channel" button, the bot says that it is working but then the button changes back to the "Join button" and when I click it again, it says failed to join channel.
I setup streamelements with youtube including all my alerts, merch and tips
If i stream on twitch, do I have to start from scratch?
Yes. Each platform settings are independent of another.
Oh my. Is there a way to transfer some assets tho?
Like the merch store, there's over 50 items there.
Applies to all pieces.
Only exception is overlays which you can dupe across if you merge them.
That however can not be undone if you change your mind.
I guess no one knows of my issue?
Quick question for the Staff, is there a way to change my tipping link? I rebranded my channel and the link may confuse people.
May I have some assistance fixing the Chatbot?
@versed tangle Was told there was some wonky stuff very recently on their end that more or less broke the bot partially. Devs restarted it very recently so it should hopefully be playing nice now.
Thank you so much @main vector
It should be playing nice but nothing's that simple 😐
Sadly yes
Website still gives this
And this too
Uhmmm, not when you show a Visual Error saying the bot failed to join. wtf
Atleast fix the visual button then
Oh, I see whats going on here
Apparently, when you do click "Join Channel" it does not stayed updated to the "Part Channel" but glitches out and goes back to "Join Channel"
A temporary fix for this is to do Ctrl + R to force it to refresh
How do i invite the chat bot
You are welcome
The bot only joins when you are live and your stream is set to Public
well let stest that
You should get a message in the chat from StreamElements saying "StreamElements bot has Joined"
not working
@versed tangle i hit join channle now what
do i have add se and a modrater
Yes
shit one min
Make StreamElements a mod
bot or cnnle
youtube.com/c/StreamElements paste this link in the Channel mods
Nice one
I have a whole overlay for tech issue brb
Wondering if there are any staff around to help with an issue. I'd like to change my tip link. I re-branded my YouTube channel, and I'd like the tip link to use the new branding.
i got problem with se.pay because the balance is still on pending for over 2 weeks

How do import overlays from two accounts on streamelements?
to better explain, they're logged in on the same account through youtube, and having multiple youtube brand accounts I can click and switch on SE without logging out, except that trying to import from the old to the new, there is no option
nevermind, I figured it out using the duplicate feature
I use Restream when streaming so I can bring in guests easily, but I don't see stream activity in the stream elements dashboard and the bot does not respond in YouTube chat. Does the system only connect if obs and se.live is used?
i want to connect my yt chennel but its saying local host refused to connect how to fix it ?
I have set up some timers to go off on youtube, but they are not showing up, is there a basic setup for youtube to get these to work, such as adding streamelements to the channel and making it a moderator or something?
Is there a guide somewhere to show how i can set streamelements up for youtube?
The first thing you should always do is make StreamElements a Moderator
Please note that the bot only joins a Public Stream and it can take a few minutes to be active in chat
Ok, thank you.
Use this link to mod SE youtube.com/c/StreamElements
Ok, and then once it is a moderator, the timers should begin to work?
Also thank you
I am an editor for the twitch channel for this person, do they need to also add me as an editor for youtube so i can moderate their youtube SE?
Yes
Ok, same way, with the URL?
If you are logged into Twitch, you can moderate under your YouTube Account
Ok, but she still needs to send me the SE url to be invited as a mod for SE yes?
Yes
Lemme get you a screenshot
You will find this
Select the permissions and click Generate Invite Link
But do not share it with anyone, only those you trust
You are welcome
Is there a way to transmit chat messages between youtube and twitch while streaming from both?
No
Not that I know of
Not sure if its a YOUTUBE thing, but any one else have issues with Alerts NOT working in OBS great for YT Super chats and subscribes?
sometimes I swear its like 10-15mins later when it pops up, and or IF at all...
@delicate halo That's a YouTube thing
Their API is terrible and breaks alert services
lol dumb.... 😦
Also, if viewers have their subscriptions set to private, alerts won't show at all
I know
Ah interesting... Good to know, thank you!
You are welcome
Does SE have a way to showcase a LIVE count of subs?
Would this help you?
I ended up using a website link and just "Alt" it to fit where I want it, but the page should not be moved or min. it would no update it live. ONLY when I refreshed the page
Hmm Maybe! I will give that a try! Thank you! 🙂
You are welcome

My subscriber, member and super chats goals get reset every time I close the OBS program. My alerts also don't work even though when I do the test they work fine. Is there any solution? It used to work fine in the past but not anymore.
The pinned comments will show some explanations about privacy and why certain alerts are delayed/won't show
For the goals, if you goto your dashboard then navigate to activity feed > widget data > settings, turn the option to reset session data 15 minutes after stream off
Thanks so much for the answer. I'll try that. Can that maybe solve the alerts problem too?

I just checked and actually was already turned off. Any other idea?
Ohh I can see.. Is it the same for super chats ans tips?
Correct
It was turned off already. Any other idea? I can't understand, it used to work just fine. When I do the test is all perfect but if I close the program every thing is blank again. It's so frustrating.

I have erased my last account that was working fine by a mistake. Ever since that I'm having this problem. Before that everything was perfect even the alerts
When did you erase your account?
The same day I created the new one. 08/13/22 I guest

Any other solution??? 🙏
Is it possible to make a link that appears in twitch or youtube chat via a timer or !command be just one word, ie "Myyoutube" instead of the full URL?

Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.
So.. does this mean it's not possible?
Correct, Twitch and youtube doesn't allow hyperlinking and you aren't able to edit the links provided for !command
When you erased your account, did you immediately log back in with the same login info to create a new account?
Thank you very much for your reply.
Hi guys I have trouble with my stream chat in real-time on YouTube
It stopped showing it and only shows an old message on my live streams now
That’s the only message that is showing, how to fix this anyone?
I was live yesterday and the live chat wasn’t displaying just showed this 2 messages from an old stream
And keeps bringing that up
Yes I did! I erase my account by mistake so I immediately log back again. I have more than one channel linked, my first intention was to erase just one of them, that was my first mistake.
Heyho
My alerts don´t work and the analytics page shows nothing, even tho i gained a few subscribers during the livestream.
Does anybody know a fix?
Dashboard and Activity feed say nothing, even tho there were people subscribing throughout the stream
Hey @crude herald Some viewers have their subscriptions set to private which will not trigger alerts
That is YouTube's Fault as that is how their API Behaves
But can it really be the reason for also this site being completely blank?
Sadly yes
Then those selected few have their subscriptions set to private preventing StreamElements from receiving the data
Or could I maybe have done something wrong?

Okay got that.
Thank you.
One more question left tho
Do I have to tick some of those boxes after inserting the URL for the Overlay
@crude herald ⤵️
To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website) and check Shutdown source when not visible as shown in this GIF: https://imgur.com/a/2JhJD0S
Thank you
I hope that helped and I´ll check if it works when set to public. I´ve tried with another account.
I am having an issue with the chat overlay as it does not show 7tv or BTTV emotes, is this just not supported or is there a setting I need to flip.
@leaden herald This is YouTube Helpdesk and I believe that is for #helpdesk-twitch
I use BTTV and 7tv for my YouTube streams if you have the plugin in the browser is works for the YouTube chat, but the overlay on stream just shows the text.
Then I believe the Chat Widget does not support 7tv/BTTV, however, a staff will confirm this.
I even have tried dare I say it SLOBS and they have a checkbox to enable them but that doesnt even work
I have a problem with youtube/se live when im live streaming and someone is subscribed my activity feed stays the same also i have my alerts setup correctly and they also don’t show on the stream
Hey @mint lily Because of how YouTube's API works. When a viewer has their subscriptions set to Private, alerts will not show as YouTube will not give that Data to StreamElements
So and does everybody has that or not ?
Some viewers do and some don't
Okay and that’s also the reason the alerts didn’t show I guess
Yes
Aha thanks

Hi, is there any way to get both twitch and youtube chat? maybe as a custom widget on my overlay? as an alternative to restream, because I don't really like their chat overlay, thanks c:
Not possible. You can have two live chat boxes but there is no way to have them in one box
I'm ok with having 2, how can I do that?:0
Login with Your Twitch channel, create a chat overlay, add it as a browser source to OBS
Login with your Youtube Channel, Create a chat overlays, add it as a browser source to OBS
Oh, ok thx c:

Is there a way for me to enable this?
Basicly, if someone trips the filters, I want the Chatbot to say "Please refrain from using caps!"
Stream elements has worked for two dasy in youtube for me, but today, all it will say is "StreamElements bot running 🤖" It will not say any of it's timers.
Can i use stream elements if i use 2 different sites to stream at once?
You can use streamelements for each platform but you will need to set up streamelements accounts individually.
Hi, I'm trying to set up an account to start selling merch. But every time I sign up/login. It'll pop me back to the main page. And the URL will say "?error=Something%20went%20wrong..%20please%20try%20again%20later". I've been trying for like 3~4 days now and it still doesn't work. Can someone here help me?

Hey guys I need help. I'm having an issue getting the streamelements bot to work on my live streams. I added it as moderator on the channel already. And waited about 10 mins bot never joins as none of the default commands work
Streamelements also says that the bot is setup fine so I'm kinda lost
is there a way to change the url/ user name for the youtube section for streamelements?
does stream element have a yt subscriber count feature? can someone help me 😦
And i also have setup up some timers but they won’t show
Having problems getting my animation overlay to work on OBS to YouTube. The test feature works but doesn’t pop up when I actually receive a subscriber
i am having the same issue. any fixes yet?
Nope noone replied to me yet
I need to delete my merch store because I didn’t mean to make it
How do I delete it
how do i add my donation button to youtube
is there any way to ban or shadowban a person from tipping through stream elements? I have a viewer that uses my tipping function to harass me and ideally I'd like to prevent their messages from appearing on stream
Why do i feel like everyone asking questions but noone answers lmao
Hi,
We have a way to fully block the viewer from tipping - this can be done in the tipping history here:
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/list
Find the tips from the user here and block him (button on the right). If he uses multiple names/emails - has to be done for each one of them.
If you still wish to receive tips but hide his message - this can be done, visit the tipping settings - Tip Moderation section, enable automatic tip filtering and add his name to the filtered words list and select the filter action: disable alerts.
Hi,
Get the tip link from your tipping settings page and add it to the description of the livestream. YouTube has no clickable panels, so this is the only way. And of course via the bot in a chat command/timer.
Hi,
We can reset the store for you. Please provide your account ID from this page:
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
And confirm that we can reset the store - it will result in a loss of all settings and data there (but the balance will still remain).
It's a woman but thank you that's perfect :]
Seems like StreamElements is trying to call non-existant properties.
Hi I was wondering I recently switched to YouTube and my stream elements But is not staying connected and the donations along with the chat commands are not working when used.
This API keeps failing everytime
Is there a reason that the activity feed for my youtube channel isn't updating? It shows that the last person subscribed to my channel on 8/13 when I've had a lot of new subscribers in that time frame.
Due to how YouTube's API works, viewers who have their subscription set to Private will not show up in the activity feed and will not trigger alerts.
Also, refer to this message from Greyson
thanks @versed tangle . It's hard to believe that ALL of the subbies from the last week are set to private. Also, I just checked my recent events in streamlabs... if this is an API issue, then YouTube is letting more through over there than they are on StreamElements. I prefer StreamElements for many thing and would like to finish switching all of my alerts etc over to here. But this one area seems to work better on Streamlabs. Not sure why, and I have other issues with their offering so I don't want to use them exclusively.
This is the same thing for Streamlabs, you can confirm with them. It will be the same for every alert service out there using YouTube's API
But the staff are aware of these issues and are trying their hardest to fix them
But YouTube is the sole platform to blame here
Not the services that uses them
thanks for the feedback. I'm just surprised that the two services don't match since it's a YouTube thing. no worries. I'm sure this will work itself out eventually.
good evening I have a problem with enabling psc on your site I have more than 100 subscribers and I cannot enable this option because it shows me that I must have 100 subscribers

Thank you very much for your help
You are welcome
has there been an issue with the bot recently on youtube?
the last few weeks or so, it barely works for me now
@shy wigeon ⤵️
To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
Yeah I did that it just seems to disappear and reappear most of the time
commands barely work
I have to physically go into the dashboard make it part the channel and come back for it to work
I thought maybe it was an issue due to 2 streams at a time, but I disabled the chat on the other
Yea, I seem to having issues with the Chatbot
I click Join Channel once and then after a few seconds, it breaks
i agree same issues. also my alerts dont even work anymore...
yeah i have people donate.... nothing works let alown commands
just did everything they said and it dont work
I use Ko-Fi for donations instead of StreamElements tipping page.
I think I will have to use something else UNTIL this gets fixed.
Same here
hey all. just trying to get set up for the first time and im curious if anyone can direct me to info on having the alerts work with super chats and stickers and such?
Hello my name is Zay and for some reason im having this problem when like sometimes my subscriber noti will work, but other times it doesnt and I have no idea why 🤷 I stream on youtube aswell is there a fix?

is that correct?
Yes
Me and other streamers are having continous issues with the Chatbot
Account Name: mrteexdlive
Account ID: 62e939c28373890148911b73
Here is a random question. How can I allow my YouTube live stream chat play a sound on stream. I can only find ways to do that with twitch, but not a way for youtube?
How the bot works on youtube ? I need test it in offline chat and he not response
I added him as a moderator
Not possible. Only functions in public streams.
@main vector he not work at youtube offline chat ? but why he have settings for that ? for example command !commands it have this buttons and i can´t use it at offline chat
how it is work ?
those settings are for Twitch
You can't. Bot/chat only work for public streams.
Hey @minor blaze As sudo said, the bot only joins when a stream is live and the visibility is set to Public. YouTube is not the same as twitch and YouTube works way differently than Twitch
What you can do is start a Mockup Public Stream and you can test the bot in that Mockup stream and then delete the VOD afterwards
Trying to figure out how to set up the Stream Elements to Auto Tweet when I go live. What link do you use to get it to always tweet your CURRENT stream? when I use /nerdnest/live it sends my previous stream.
Good day, I'm a new user of stream elements and would love some help. I plan to go live in a few weeks on YouTube but since I'm not familiar with streaming, I did some unlisted practice streams. I found stream elements to be easier to understand but I am unable to connect the stream to stream elements. I can't enter my stream key for some reason. May I know the reason why and how to fix it?
Thank you.
Hey @weak ridge Take a look at this Response from TeamYoutube
Hey @cunning relic The bot only joins when your stream is Public and not Private or Unlisted.
Oh thank you so much
You are welcome
Will keep a note of that in the future
As for the Streamkey, if you are using SE.Live, there is no need to enter your streamkey as the YouTube Connection auto fetches your Streamkey
Ohh ok
Yea
Once again, thank you so much
You are most welcome
So instead of /nerdnest/live I would do /channel/UCiC38Llz5e3qR6EaQAGlWvw/live ?
Yes
Awesome, thank you, never would have thought of that.
I currently do not have the Custom URL option to test this but that's the only way I believe
And you are most welcome
We'll I'll find out next live stream haha
Hahaha
Where Can i find custom command
For SE for youtube
I was on twitch for a year but decided to try out YouTube
Is it normal for streamelements bot to just show up, but not work? I am trying to use !commands, and it does nothing, also, timers do not work. What could cause this, and how can i fix it? Or is it just normal?
Some people have been complaining about those issues @main girder
Hey @grizzled creek if you meant creating a custom command, use this page https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/custom
Ah, thank you for letting me know, hopefully the issue will be resolved.
Something about the Join API fails right away after 5 seconds
Ah, i see. Why can't these apps just all get along? 😂
YouTube is to blame for breaking everything every update/change
I see. I had a feeling it was the case.
Yes
This chatbot issue is really getting out of hand. Hope the staff can rescue this

When you set up SE for youtube...
what does the alert "member Event" 1 and 3 mean?
ok there is only 1 and 3 by default. ill try and make a custom for 2 then likely come back here crying cause i oopsed something simple, before i ask for the how to 🙂
Thanks @versed tangle
No worries @hardy radish
@versed tangle i stayed to read your chat bot comments as im planning to use that too ... is there a work around and or is it happening consistently? or is that bug rare
?
It seems that something is preventing the bot from properly joining the Chat @hardy radish
hmm not good...
future drake problem
so the member 1 doesnt seem to indicate where it will add my member tier name.
oh wait! LOL SMRT!
i could just manually do it for them?
how do i know what version will work for what tier?
Hello i have 100 subscribers but it dont work the option donate
I have made sure to let TeamYoutube know about this as well as Post about it on the YouTube Help Forums. This is a serious issue
and are you in one of its supporting countries?
He has been helped.
oh 
No worries
i got a question. so whenever someone subscribes to me. the alert is very delayed. like 30 mins delayed any help would be great please tag me
Hey @atomic umbra That is YouTube you should blame it on. Their API for some odd reason, delivers the data to Alert Services late.
Hello all, how ai can transfer my timers, chat commands, giveways and loyality points from streamelements twitch to streamelements youtube?
Hey @mental imp There is no way of doing it automatically, you will have to do it Manually.
Pfff, ok thanks.
Hello, ive tried everything to have my alert box work for YT and i cant figure it out. I've literally tried everything and it refuses to work. Testing it works fine and works immediately, but everything after that hasnt worked at ll
Hi, I'm trying to set up an account to start selling merch. But every time I sign up/login. It'll put me back to the main page. And the URL will say :
"?error=Something%20went%20wrong..%20please%20try%20again%20later".
I've been trying for like a week now and it still doesn't work. Can someone here help me? (P.S : I also just tried a VPN and it still doesn't work.)
what exactly isn't working for it sub alerts i resume?
what browser are you using also have you tried Incognito? as you may have some extensions / plugins what are blocking your access
Hi SE friends. Long-time user, first-time problem haver. When I opened OBS, I got a prompt to update SE, so I did. When it relaunched, I got another prompt to update it. Assuming that something had gone wrong with the first install, I just gave it another go. Anyway it appears that I now have SE installed twice (see images)
This is funny but I'm concerned that it'll cause problems down the line. Is there a way to address this? I'd hate to do a clean reinstall unless I really have to.
oh it seems many others are experiencing the constant update thing
Using Google Chrome. Just tried Incognito. Still didn't work
Hey guys!
The update loop is a known issue and our devs are looking into it as we speak. In the meantime, a workaround we can offer is simply canceling the update/clicking on "not now", this will let you open OBS as usual.
same issue we have
hello, I want the SE bot on my youtube stream chat, but it doesn't work (it is part of the channel) even the subscribers don't show up on the dashboard
it shows 0, even though I have gained a few subscribers
If you're referring to the bot not being in chat then i believe this is a known Issue and being looked into and as for your subs due to how YouTube's API works If someone subs to you but they don't have who they are sub to set to public se cannot gather that data unfortunately
Considering YouTube and Shopify have a new shopping partnership, will there be an alert system set up within streamelements for that?
Hey @wise sluice You are free to submit a Idea on the SE Ideas page

God damn it greyson 
I can check to see if there is any other issues, but truthfully, that is the reason why they're "not" appearing.
Most YT accounts now days are created with the settings in private, causing alot of alerts to not trigger
since I'm here anyways any updates off the devs about when the bot is actually going to be working again? " i don't really like the fact that I'm being forced to use the bot what shall not be named
"
I changed that a few days ago, didnt change anything
but if they arent going to appear as teh sub happens then whats the point
you're not the one who needs to change anything, it's the viewers who need to
Wow really, man youtube suck
Yeah, i just hate twitch as a company but damn for how big YT is they suck at the little things
that's true but you got remember yt has always been a video platform first twitch has been a streaming platform for years and yt well not really 
Is there anyone tech savvy that could hopefully help me find an issue with my setup and streaming issues?

Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
When playing games normally I have 0 issues amazing speeds fps and 0 delay. However when Im streaming any game I try drops fps and loses 0 delay even on really decent hardware
@rustic holly ⤵️
Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.
Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.
@rustic holly ⤵️
Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
@rustic holly ⤵️
- Restart OBS
- Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
- Stop your stream/recording.
- Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.
Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+.

More than likely your accounts need to be merged! - Please note:
- Merging accounts allows for faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events

the only data of any private level is for SE.Pay.
Here is a random question. How can I allow my YouTube live stream chat play a sound on stream. I can only find ways to do that with twitch, but not a way for youtube?
@harsh gulch not possible with us.
Ok. Thank you @main vector I didn't see a response earlier when I asked, so if you responded before I'm sorry for asking again.
Hey, I´m sure this is a really common question, but for some reason, the loyalty tab is not showing up on my dashboard.
Is there somewhere I have to go to enable it?
Thank you!
that's because it's not possible to have loyalty points on yt
Oh, I couldn´t find anything about that on the wiki page.
Why is it not possible?
It seems useless to have them on twitch, since twitch has them built in already.
because se can't get user data with the current yt api
Ah, alright.
Do you know if there are any other bots that provide that functionality?
nope
It seems like it would be relatively simple to program it, maybe if the users had to type a command to claim the points after set intervals.
Alright! thank you anyway.
yt is very strict on there api unfortunately 
It's not as simple as that
Anyone online willing to help us test something, We need someone who has the "members" feature on Youtube.
Quick summary: Were making a whitelisting service for some games and non of us (The Devs) have members to make sure the systems working.
If your willing to help us test when the time comes please DM me ❤️
(If this isn't fine/allowed please delete it mods <3).
Was it possible in the past? there are lots of websites talking about it for some reason.
It never has been possible on yt
Hey everybody how do i turn on Loyalty mode for Streamelements? I cannot find it anywhere
Cant find any button or tutorial to show me how to get the Loyalty tab.
Hey @ancient river There is sadly no Loyalty for YouTube by StreamElements
Couple of questions
1: If I have a different profile for my Twitch and YT and I edit labels eg have "Recent Subscriber" named "Recent Member" on YouTube will it keep the different names or alter for both profiles?
2: How can I mimic the SLOBS chat bot for SE without using a SLOBS browser source because I can't find a good chat box for YT
Hi Team,
I have full admin rights to a YouTube channel for streamlabs and we have set everything up, the chatbot is connected and working and the alerts are emulating fine.
The issue we are having is nothing is being picked up in the activity feed, so no alerts are coming up for superchat events overlay wise, nothing is showing in the OBS plugin for the activity feed, and no activity is presenting on the browser version of the dashboard.
Just wondering what we can do to fix this and get the activity feeds working?
Due to changes by Youtube there can be a delay up to 4 hours with subscriber notifications. This is the new intended way for receiving events from Youtube by their design.
Users can choose to make the channels that they subscribe to public or private. By default, all settings are set to private.
Private: When a users subscriptions are set to private, no other user can see what channels they subscribe to. A user's account does not show in a channel's Subscribers List, even if they are subscribed.
Public: When users subscriptions are set to public, another user can see what channels they subscribe to. User subscriptions are listed on their channel page, and their account is listed in the Subscribers List for any channel they subscribe to.
If a user has it set to Private they will not show up in the activity feed. More info: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190

@gusty gazelle thanks for the reply, is this also for superchat events as we are more concerned about the superchats and donations which we have been testing through me buying these in the live stream?
We've also found the S.E OBS plugin is not connecting to the chat so he's using a different third party chatbot to see the chat at the moment
General question. Is it worth it to stream 4K on YouTube? With the obvious drawbacks of needing more PC power and a better internet connection, it seems like it would just be a bonus (due to automatic, guaranteed transcoding).
Hey! We can help here, what were you looking to setup with memberships?

To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
Joined this server to report issues since updating StreamElements but from the looks of things not the only one. As well as the duplicate controls, I also had an issue where my camera wouldn't load (it was earlier after the update), but then it didn't, so I restarted OBS, and then OBS would load and immediately crash. The only fix was uninstalling StreamElements, if I reinstall it crashes again.
Eh okay I followed the steps of installing OBS without installing OBS, and then I re-installed StreamElements, and that fixed it!
I have a public live stream but still not Steam Elements Bot. I have switched to Live Chat on YT and even tried some commands. Still no sign of the chatbot. Is there anything else I can try?
this is an ongoing issue a lot of people been having including myself the only thing i can recommend to you to try is to go to https://myaccount.google.com/permissions Look for StreamElements
and "Remove Access"
than logout and log back in on https://streamelements.com/
Last step is "Part and Join"
Is there no way to duplicate bot commands to a different profile? The codepen link many suggested doesn't seem to work any longer.
There is not unfortunately
I’m sure I’m doing something stupid and just over looking it. But I’m trying to get my chat bot set up and I have stream elements modded and have given them permissions but it’s not working. This is for a branded account.
Can't login to Mercury?
im dont see se.pay
try this go to https://myaccount.google.com/permissions Look for StreamElements
and "Remove Access"
than logout and log back in on https://streamelements.com/
Last step is "Part and Join"
What is the url i post in chat to activate streamelements as a mod

thank you so much!!!
Im having issues with my stream, whenever i go live, my stream is VERY laggy and is pretty much frozen at all times
Hello ! I was wondering if i can for example upscale my livestream?
I know on recordings for example you can upscale your recording from 1080p to 4k in editing software.
But i am unsure if upscaling is also a think in livestreams, if you set your obs resolution to 1080P but your youtube livestream resolution to 1440p?
Ok, so, youtube is still saying "12:14 PM
StreamElements
StreamElements bot running 🤖" But 2 hour after the stream begins, timers do not work, and commands do not work.
Is this still on youtubes end?
I get the impression that youtube doesn't really have much care or support for their streamers.
Hey @main girder I DMed both Eglorian and Renziito about this. Eglorian told me that takes awhile for the bot to come back to life and Renziito said that he has let the Dev Team know about this. So its possible YouTube broke the bot
AH, great, thanks for the reply. Some days, the bot seems to work right away, some days it seems if i do a command, it wakes it up, other days, it's dead. 😦 I hope this is resolved, as streaming without streamelements after being used to it on twitch is painful lol
No problem, for now, I would recommend you use Nightbot as it seems to work fine
Great, thank you very much.
