Automations

WHEN / IF / DO rules that react to your stream: thank a donor, fire an alert, grant XP or, with Trigglow Studio, control OBS.

Open in Trigglow

An automation is a rule in three parts. WHEN picks the event: chat messages, command uses, follows, subscriptions, gifted subs, channel points spent, donations, triggers fired, raids, quest completions, minutes live, a chat activity spike, KICKs (Kick), Bits (Twitch) or Super Chats (YouTube). You can add a threshold (for example 20 follows in 30 minutes, or a sum reached this stream) and choose How often: every time, once per stream, or at most once every N minutes.
IF (optional) adds conditions that must all match, or any of them: viewer role, minimum loyalty level, first time on the channel, platform, only while live, game or category, time of day, and amount.
DO runs up to 8 actions in order: fire a trigger, send a chat message, send a random message from a list, grant XP, add bonus progress to a quest or goal, emote rain, and wait (seconds) between actions. If the stream ends during a wait, the rest is skipped.
When you open this page inside Trigglow Studio, you also get OBS events (scene changes, stream or recording start and stop, replay saved, input muted) and OBS actions (switch scene, show or hide a source, start or stop streaming or recording, save or clip the replay, set a text source, set volume, toggle a filter, trigger a hotkey). These run on your PC, so Trigglow Studio must be open and connected to OBS.

Steps

  1. 1
    Open Automations (/app/automations).
  2. 2
    Click Use this on a Quick start preset, or + New automation.
  3. 3
    Give it a name and pick the WHEN event, with a threshold if you need one.
  4. 4
    Optionally add IF conditions.
  5. 5
    Add the DO actions in order, set a cooldown if needed, and click Create.
  6. 6
    Click Test on the rule to see what it would do with sample values. Nothing is sent.
Tip
Priority decides the order when several rules match the same event. All matching rules run, not only the first.
Note
A trigger fired by an automation does not start other automations, so rules can't loop.
Note
Actions that need a viewer (fire a trigger, grant XP) do nothing on events without one, such as OBS events or a chat spike.
Tip
Each rule shows when it last fired and a History of its runs.
