Set up your game and audio, connect your accounts, and add your OBS source. Then use Stream Workspace to prepare your destinations, stay on track while live, and finish with something to share.
Install OBS Studio or your preferred streaming software. In OBS, Tools → Auto-Configuration Wizard helps choose settings for your computer and connection.
The official OBS quick-start guide covers sources, audio and testing.
In Connections, link your gaming account for progress tracking and the streaming platforms you use. A custom game overlay is available when a game has no connected achievement feed.
Configure each broadcast output in your streaming software. For multiple destinations, use software or a relay that supports your required outputs. Selecting platforms in StreamTracker does not configure those outputs.
Plus and Pro can edit supported titles, descriptions and game categories in Stream Workspace → Stream details. You can also use Twitch's studio, YouTube Studio, or KICK's studio.
Open Overlays & Widgets → OBS links & widgets and copy the Smart overlay or the source you want.
Keep your URL private: it includes your personal key. Existing source URLs still work after the dashboard update.
Home shows your next action. Already added your source? Choose My overlay is already in OBS. Otherwise, copy the link and add it first.
Keep the source visible, select Send a test alert, and watch OBS. Select I saw it in OBS after it appears. A sent event does not by itself confirm the source rendered. These confirmations stay in this browser for your account.
Open Stream Workspace → Prepare. Select Twitch, YouTube and/or Kick, then Refresh readiness. Check each destination and Browser Source access/activity.
Preview your opening scene, open chat and moderation, choose a goal and ending time, and follow the checklist. Plus and Pro can save sessions and missions; get the mission widget from OBS links & widgets.
Start streaming in your broadcasting software, then use On air in Stream Workspace. Refresh each destination and briefly watch public playback to check video and audio.
Optional monitoring checks every minute while On air and the page are visible. It pauses when you switch away or hide the page. Source activity confirms polling, not encoder health.
Plus and Pro can start session tracking, follow missions and use break reminders. Pro can capture Twitch clips with the clip button or an existing Stream Deck key. Choosing YouTube or Kick does not enable clip capture for those platforms.
Thank viewers, share your next plan, and stop each broadcast in your streaming software. Refresh platform status, end session tracking, and use Wrap up to review goals and captured moments where your plan supports them.
Use Content Studio for follow-up copy, the existing Discord recap controls for a recap, and the local improvement note for one thing to change next time.
Free: readiness, optional monitoring and checklists. Plus: saved sessions, missions and tracked break reminders. Pro: Twitch clips and moment review. See plan access and current pricing.
The sidebar links directly to Trending, Avatar Studio, and Help Center. Designs, OBS links and full-screen layouts are grouped under Overlays & Widgets. More tools & resources contains referrals, the Setup Wizard and guides.
