Connect your channel
The Channel page (/channel) shows the status of the Twitch connection for your workspace. After your first sign-in, you use this page to confirm that AveloBot has access to your Twitch channel, and to re-authorize if a problem occurs.
What "connected" means
When the channel is connected, your Twitch broadcaster account is bound to this AveloBot workspace and the bot holds the access tokens it requires for operation. Specifically, AveloBot can then:
- Subscribe to Twitch EventSub for follows, subs, raids, bits, ad breaks, and stream online/offline events.
- Post chat messages and announcements under the configured bot identity.
- Read your live status, title, and category, which the
!uptime,!title, and!categorycommands depend on.
Connection states
| Status | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Connected | Tokens valid, EventSub active | Nothing — you're good. |
| Needs reauth | A token refresh failed (e.g. you revoked AveloBot on Twitch, or a scope changed) | Click Reconnect and re-authorize. |
| Not connected | First-time setup not completed yet | Click Connect with Twitch. |
Disconnecting
If you want to stop using AveloBot temporarily, click Disconnect on the channel page. This:
- Removes your stored Twitch tokens from AveloBot.
- Tears down EventSub subscriptions for your channel.
- Leaves your commands, timers, quotes, and event responses intact — they will be reused if you reconnect later.
To fully remove AveloBot's authorization, also revoke it under twitch.tv/settings/connections.
