Native Twitch · Shoutouts
Send shoutouts and welcome raids
Recommend another live channel now, or prepare one automatic welcome for each qualifying incoming raid.
Send a shoutout now
If BlokeBot asks for the bot account to be reconnected, restore that account's moderator role first, then reconnect it from Channel setup.
- Open Shoutouts, enter the other channel's Twitch name and select Send shoutout.
- Wait for the result before trying again. The target must be live with viewers.
- Use the displayed cooldown and Recent shoutouts to decide when another send is available.
Welcome incoming raids automatically
- Automatic raid shoutouts are off by default. Open the section and turn them on when you are ready.
- Set the minimum viewer count, then choose either a Native Twitch shoutout or a Chat message.
- For a chat message, choose Regular, Pinned or Announcement. A pinned message can use a duration from 30 to 1,800 seconds or stay pinned until stream end; an announcement also needs a colour.
- Write the message, check its preview and readiness note, then select Save automatic shoutouts.
- Message tokens include {twitch_handle}, {display_name}, {channel_url}, {viewer_count}, {last_game|fallback} and {stream_title|fallback}.
- Last game and stream title need an inline fallback because Twitch may not provide them.
- BlokeBot handles each eligible raid once. A failed native shoutout is not replaced with a chat message, and a failed announcement is not replaced with a regular message.
Check an automatic outcome
- Automatic shoutout outcomes shows the newest raid results and why a send was skipped or incomplete.
- Native shoutouts can be skipped while Twitch's cooldown is active.
- A pinned message can be sent even when Twitch cannot pin it afterwards; the outcome states both parts.
- Fix the connection or permission named by the outcome before the next raid. There is no retry or fallback action for an earlier raid.
