This data source allows you to pull YouTube comments from your live stream. First though, you will need an API key to make this work. .
Grab the video ID from your YouTube live stream.
For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esxtWWn83Es
Adding this data source will send all of your comments to the Social page of the Control window.
Sign in
Once signed in, use the ‘Select a Project’ modal to create a new project, name it whatever you want.
APIs and services
Once created, you will be directed to the ‘APIs and services’ page. From here you can choose ‘+ Enable APIs and services’.
Adding the YouTube Data API
In the search box, type ‘YouTube Data’, and choose ‘YouTube Data API v3’ from the results. Then ‘Enable’ the API.
Credentials
Once the API is enabled, there will be a ‘Credentials’ tab on the left, click on that. On the credentials page there will be a ‘+ Create credentials’ option at the top, click that, then choose ‘API Key’.
Your API key
If everything went well, you will get a modal pop up with your API key for use in H2R Graphics. Copy/paste it into the software!
That API key is for your eyes only. Do not share it with anyone.
