Streamlabs setup

Separate YouTube alerts from Tipping.

1. YouTube through Streamlabs#

Choose Sources → YouTube → Streamlabs. Paste the full https://streamlabs.com/alert-box/v3/… URL, including its query, then save and reconnect. Supported YouTube paid events use Notification → YouTube and /overlay/alerts/youtube.

2. Streamlabs tips#

For tips, fill Sources → Streamlabs → Tipping. Use the same Alert Box URL or use another. This input is independent of YouTube; clear only this field to disconnect tips. Use Notification → Streamlabs and /overlay/alerts/streamlabs.

3. Keep the original Alert Box running#

Keep the original Streamlabs Alert Box loaded during the stream; avoid shutting down its Browser Source when hidden. A connected socket alone does not prove alerts are generated. Mute duplicate sound in OBS without stopping the widget.

What is not a donation#

Twitch events, free YouTube subscriptions, Cloudbot rewards and merch are not supported paid donations here. Gift recipients are not second purchases. Provider-marked test events may be excluded from totals; use Notification preview to test the design.
