Writing an iOS app and would like to know the best way for a user to access their stream key and use within my app. Anyone have any examples? Prefer objective c but swift would work as well. Thanks ---

Is the documented API end point to obtain the stream key from the API You’ll need to have performed oAuth and logged in the user to Twitch with the `channel:read:stream_key` scope. Alternatively just give the user a input field to copy/paste their key into. ---
