Chat Settings​

Viewer Authentication​

Control who can chat in your live shows by enabling or disabling viewer authentication:

  • Off (Default): Guest viewers (not signed in) can chat with random, assigned names.
  • On: Guest viewers must verify their identity (via mobile number, email, or sign-in) before chatting.

For Sign In Method:

  • User attributes have to be integrated
  • You need to handle the callback process for authentication to work.

Guest Display Name Customization​

Guest viewers will be assigned a random name when they chat. You can control whether they can change this name:

  • On: Guest viewers can choose and modify their display name throughout the live show.
  • Off: Guest viewers will keep their assigned random name for the entire live show.

Admin Chat Display Name​

By default, your chat messages in the Admin Watch page will show your account username. You can customize this for each live show:

  • Default: Use your account username.
  • Custom: Enter a new display name specifically for this live show. This name won't be carried over to future shows.

Live Show Branding​

Add a personal touch to your live shows by uploading a logo that will appear as a watermark in the top right corner. This logo is specific to each live show and won't be carried over automatically to the next one.
