Go Live Notifications
Automatically post a message in your Discord server when your Twitch stream goes live. Customise the notification format, choose a channel, and let your community know the moment you start streaming.
Go Live Features
Automatic Notifications
Gander detects when your Twitch stream goes live and posts a notification in your chosen Discord channel automatically.
Custom Message Template
Write your own notification message using template variables such as {streamer}, {title}, {game}, {viewers}, and {url}.
Text or Embed Format
Choose between a plain text message or a rich embed with the full embed builder for a more polished notification style.
Cooldown Period
Set a cooldown between 5 and 1,440 minutes to prevent duplicate notifications if your stream restarts. Defaults to 60 minutes.
Readiness Checklist
A built-in checklist confirms that Chat Bot is enabled, Twitch is connected, a Discord server is selected, and a notification channel is set before you go live.
Live Preview
See a real-time preview of exactly how your notification will appear in Discord, including bot avatar and formatting, before you save.

Configuration
Notification Channel
Select the Discord channel where go-live notifications will be posted. This must be set before notifications can be sent.
Message Format

Extra Options
Toggle whether to include the stream title and game or category in the notification. Set the cooldown period (5 to 1,440 minutes) to prevent repeat notifications.
Notification Status
Turn notifications on or off without losing your settings. Use the test button to send a preview notification to your chosen channel.
