Auto Twitch Clip Scanner

Description

This extension will run once per minute using the Present Viewers trigger to check for any new clips created within the scan interval. If any new clips are found, then a custom New Twitch Clip Found event will be triggered. Also included: a !clip command to create a clip via Chat and post to Chat/Discord, using this command will avoid the New Twitch Clip Found event from being triggered multiple times.

Configuration

Posting clips only if title is unique

  • Set postUniqueTitlesOnly to True if you only want to post clips that have a title that is different from the channel title

The two settings below use the following syntax for time spans:

Postfix Symbol Usage Explanation
d 4d 4 days
h 4d3h 4 days, 3 hours
m 4d3h2m 4 days, 3 hours, 2 minutes
s 4d3h2m1s 4 days, 3 hours, 2 minutes, 1 second

Scan Clips Interval

  • The scanClipsWithinLast argument is the time span of how far back you want to scan clips for
    • This is set by default to 30d, or 30 days
    • If you have a lot of clips, you may want to shorten the scan time span interval

Post Clips Interval

  • The postClipsWithinLast argument is the time span of which clips you want to post if found
    • This is set by default to 8h, or 8 hours, meaning any clips found within this time span will trigger the New Twitch Clip Found event
    • Make sure this time span is shorter than the Scan Clips Interval

New Twitch Clip Found

This is an example action that uses the New Twitch Clip Found Custom Trigger. It will be triggered if new Twitch clips are found. The trigger will populate the following variables:

%clipId% An ID that uniquely identifies the clip.
%clipUrl% A URL to the clip.
%clipEmbedUrl% A URL that you can use in an iframe to embed the clip
%clipCreatorId% An ID that identifies the user that created the clip.
%clipCreatorUserName% The user’s display name.
%clipVideoId% An ID that identifies the video that the clip came from. This field contains an empty string if the video is not available.

%clipGameTitle% Title of the clip category
%clipGameArtUrl% A URL to a thumbnail for the clip category
%clipLanguage% The ISO 639-1 two-letter language code that the broadcaster broadcasts in. For example, en for English. The value is other if the broadcaster uses a language that Twitch doesn’t support.

v1.0.1 - added an option postUniqueTitlesOnly to post only if the clip title is different from the channel title

v1.0.2 - added option for logging to a set of json files for debugging purposes

v1.0.6 - After some debugging, I think I can get some consistent results. I’ve cleaned up the logging code. If you need any logging, test the Test Trigger.

v2.0.1 - Updated the extension to just trigger a New Twitch Clip Found event when a new Twitch Clip is found. Much easier to set up

This is what I was looking for ! :heart:

is it possible to get stream title? or am I missing something

Stream Title? Independent of the %clipTitle% variable? That can be done by adding a Get User Info for Target, setting it to Broadcaster, and then using the %targetChannelTitle% variable

I was looking for stream title. Oh thanks that worked :smile:

Looks like you used the wrong subaction. Twitch > User > Get User Info for Target and set it to Broadcaster, then move that subaction to the top.

Ye its showing the stream title now !
Thanks for the help ! :heart:
