How to Set Up Clipbot with Nightbot: A Step-by-Step Guide for Twitch Streamers

Are you a Twitch streamer looking to automate your clip creation and sharing process? Look no further! In this guide, we'll walk you through how to set up Clipbot with Nightbot, allowing you to create and share clips with just a simple command in your Twitch chat.

What You'll Need

• A Twitch account
• Nightbot installed on your Twitch channel
• A Clipbot account (sign up at Clipbot.tv if you haven't already)

Step 1: Get Your Clipbot API Key

1. Log in to your Clipbot account at app.clipbot.tv
2. Navigate to the Settings page
3. Click on the "Connections" tab
4. Look for your API key - you'll need this for the next step

Step 2: Create the Nightbot Command

Now that you have your API key, it's time to set up the Nightbot command. Here's what you need to do:

1. Open your Twitch chat
2. Type the following command (replace YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with your actual Clipbot API key):

!addcom !clip $(urlfetch https://api.clipbot.tv/api/twitch/clips?apiKey=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE&title=$(querystring),POST,{},Clip created!|Error creating clip)

This command does a few things:

• Creates a new clip when someone types !clip in your chat
• Sends the clip title (if provided) to Clipbot
• Returns "Clip created!" on success or "Error creating clip" if there's an issue

Step 3: Test Your New Command

To make sure everything is working correctly:

1. Start streaming on Twitch
2. In your chat, type: !clip My awesome moment
