Connect YouTube for memberships and Super Chats

Verified for OBScure v0.5.1

YouTube

Detects channel memberships and Super Chats on your live stream.

Connecting

Unlike Twitch and Spotify, YouTube needs your own OAuth client — Google doesn't offer an equivalent of Twitch's client-secret-free device flow, so there's no safe built-in default OBScure can ship with.

  1. Open Google Cloud Console, create (or pick) a project, and create an OAuth client of type Desktop app.
  2. Copy the generated Client ID and Client Secret into the matching fields on this page.
  3. Click Connect.

OBScure requests access_type=offline and prompt=consent, so Google reissues a refresh token on every connect — without prompt=consent, a user who already granted access before wouldn't get a fresh refresh token back on a later reconnect, since Google only ever returns one on the first consent.

What you get once connected

YouTube has no live channel-stats feed today (unlike Twitch), so it isn't offered as a source for an integration-scoped Variable node.
