OAuth Redirect URL

API
6

Ok here is what I did to get my token. I assume this is for yourself only and not for if anyone wants to use your bot…I believe…I’m not super smart. lol

  1. Make your bot app from here: https://glass.twitch.tv/console/apps
    1b. Fill in the:
    Name - (anything you want)
    Category - (choose any category your bot applies to)
    OAuth Redirect URL - (put in this link: https://twitchapps.com/tokengen/)
    1c. Then click “save” and afterwards you should your client id on that webpage as well. (you are going to need it)

  2. Open a new tab and go to the link: https://twitchapps.com/tokengen/
    2b. Put your
    client ID - (the one that was generated after you saved your app settings)
    2c.(optional) You can put in scopes but I haven’t used it yet…the link on that page regarding scopes is busted but if you want to know more about scopes go here https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/#scopes (I should read more about it as well.)
    2d. Click “connect to twitch”.

  3. If done right, you will be brought to an authorization page asking you to authorize your bot to do stuff on your behalf (obviously allow this or why are you here? lol)

  4. Your token will be provided right after on the next page.

Man I am so stupid, the webpage wants you to put there redirect url in your app so it redirects there. OMG, i’m such an idiot.
