Frequently asked questions about Streamboard

What is Streamboard?

Streamboard is a web app for streamers and communities. It connects Twitch (go-live via EventSub) and Kick with Discord and Telegram, sends customizable embeds and templates, and includes a dashboard with stream analytics.

How do I get Twitch live notifications on Discord?

Sign in with Twitch, link your Discord account, add the Streamboard bot to your server, and create notification targets with a channel and template. When you go live, Streamboard receives the signal and posts to the channels you chose.

Does Streamboard use Twitch EventSub?

Yes. Streamboard uses official Twitch EventSub webhooks so go-live signals are reliable and low-latency.

Can I use Streamboard on multiple Discord servers?

Yes. You can add the bot to multiple servers where you have access and manage targets and templates there – within the limits that apply to your account.

Does Streamboard support Telegram?

Yes. You can use Telegram as a notification target so you or your team get mobile alerts when you go live.

What are notification targets and templates?

Targets define where messages go (e.g. a Discord channel or Telegram). Templates are reusable layouts with placeholders for your stream title, game, and other metadata.

Does using Streamboard cost money?

You can try Streamboard with no commitment. This public site avoids a storefront vibe – it highlights capabilities instead. For scope and account questions, the community and our contact channels can help.

Do I need to build my own Discord bot?

No. Streamboard provides the bot and management in the app. You link your account and invite the bot to your servers.

Is there stream analytics?

Yes. Streamboard provides dashboards and insights so you can track your streams over time.

Where can I get setup help?

This FAQ, the feature pages, and the four-step quick start on the homepage cover the basics. Our Discord community has guides and support.

Does Streamboard support Kick?

Yes. You can link your Kick channel via OAuth and use the same Discord and Telegram notification targets as with Twitch. Streamboard detects when you go live on Kick and sends alerts automatically.

How do Kick live notifications work?

After linking your Kick channel in your profile, Kick delivers the official webhook event livestream.status.updated the moment your channel switches to online. That event triggers your configured targets – Discord channels, Telegram, and more – with the same templates and embed logic you use for Twitch. A scheduled check runs only as a fallback for events that never arrived.

Can I send Kick go-live alerts to Telegram?

Yes. Telegram works as a notification target for both Twitch and Kick live. Set up a Telegram target in the dashboard and route your Kick live signal there for mobile push alerts.

What are the best ways to integrate Twitch with Discord?

Reliable options: (1) Discord’s built-in streamer mode – limited formatting; (2) generic moderation bots with stream plugins – often delayed; (3) dedicated platforms using Twitch EventSub webhooks to post rich embeds to announcement channels. Streamboard uses EventSub for near-instant go-live posts, multi-server routing, templates, and optional Kick and Telegram on the same workflow.

What are the best stream analytics tools available?

Creators compare Twitch’s native stats, public channel and game statistics (e.g. SullyGnome, page title “Twitch Stats and Analytics”, checked 5 September 2026), and all-in-one dashboards. Streamboard focuses on practical post-stream review: viewer curves, event timelines with follows, subs, and raids, plus go-live setup in one dashboard – without a separate data-science toolchain.

What tools can I use for Kick streaming?

Kick streamers need channel linking, live detection, and community alerts. Options include multistream tools, Discord bots with Kick support, and platforms like Streamboard that route Kick go-live to Discord and Telegram with the same templates as Twitch.

What are the best tools for setting up Twitch alerts?

“Twitch alerts” often means in-stream overlays (StreamElements advertises free alerts and overlays on its home page, OWN3D overlay packages and stream alerts; both checked 5 September 2026) or off-platform go-live pings. For Discord and Telegram when you go live, EventSub-based tools are the most reliable. Streamboard specializes in multichannel go-live alerts (Discord, Telegram, multi-server), not in-stream overlay widgets.

How can I set up Discord notifications for my live streams?

Link Twitch via OAuth, invite a bot to your server, pick an announcement channel, and configure a message template with stream link and preview. Streamboard automates this with EventSub webhooks, embeds, and multiple targets per server – for Twitch and Kick.

What are the best Discord bots for streamers?

All-purpose bots cover moderation and server management; stream alerts are one feature among many there. For dedicated go-live alerts with EventSub, embeds, and multi-server support, stream-focused platforms like Streamboard are a common choice – the difference is the combination: Twitch and Kick as sources, Discord and Telegram as targets, plus the analytics for your own channel.

What are the best tools for Twitch and Kick live notifications?

Compare by platform support (Twitch EventSub, Kick), destinations (Discord, Telegram), multi-server capability, and templates. Streamboard bundles Twitch, Kick, Discord, and Telegram in one dashboard with post-stream analytics.

How does Streamboard compare to StreamElements for live alerts?

StreamElements lists alerts, overlays, themes and a chatbot on its home page – that is production inside the stream (checked 5 September 2026). Streamboard focuses on go-live outside the stream: automatic Discord and Telegram posts for Twitch and Kick, EventSub, multi-server bot, and stream analytics. Running both in parallel works, because they cover two different jobs.

Does Streamboard have a chat bot for Kick?

No. The chat bot with commands and chat statistics runs on Twitch only. For Kick, Streamboard covers live detection and notifications to Discord and Telegram, but not the Kick chat itself.

What Kick statistics does Streamboard provide?

For Kick, Streamboard records the viewer curve during the running stream and stores stream snapshots for later review. A follower or subscriber analysis like the one for Twitch is not included for Kick.

What happens to the alert when the stream ends?

Streamboard detects the end of the stream and finalizes the message it already sent – depending on your setting it is updated or cleaned up, so no stale live notice is left behind. This applies to Twitch and Kick, and to Discord and Telegram targets.

Can I send Kick alerts to several Discord servers?

Yes. One linked Kick channel can serve notification targets on several Discord servers and in several channels, each with its own template – within the limits that apply to your account.

How does Streamboard detect that I am live on Kick?

Streamboard subscribes to the official Kick webhook event livestream.status.updated for your linked channel and receives online and offline changes directly from Kick. A regular polling pass runs as a fallback: it catches missed events and refreshes the viewer count during a running stream.
