Using curl to set game category using Channel Update

Thank you for the prompt reply and detailed response. It seems that OAuth is a bit more complicated than I hoped, to fully automate this from a batch script would require also parsing the authentication response to get the token to use in the PUT request… not as simple as stacking up a series of requests with predefined values like I was hoping to script.

Probably someone more familiar with OAuth and Web APIs could throw something together in a pinch, but for me it’s beyond my experience level for something I could do in a short amount of time.

May be time to stump up and buy a stream deck. Really it’s something OBS should inherently provide within it’s own Twitch integration, which already authenticates using OAuth, though that’s a feature request for the OBS team really.

Thanks for your help
