Finding Your sidelineHD Stream Key

Use this page if you need to enter a RTMP stream key for your camera or restreaming service.

(Note that we have direct help pages for: sidelineHD App, Larix Broadcaster, Mevo, GoPro)

We assign each advanced camera its own RTMP stream key.  Streams sent to these keyed destinations automatically go LIVE on sidelineHD.  

To find your sidelineHD stream key:

1/ Log in to sidelineHD and navigate to your sidelineHD camera settings (Settings -> Stream Settings -> Camera Settings).

2/ If you don't already have an advanced camera, create one. 

3/ Get your sidelineHD Stream URL and Stream Key by clicking the three dots next to your camera setup and then press Advanced Settings. There is your Stream URL and Stream Key.

4/ Paste the Stream URL and Stream Key where it's needed.  

Some services refer to Stream URL as Server.  For example, this is OBS:

NOTE 1: This is an RTMPS key.  Some platforms do better with RTMP (unencrypted stream) instead of RTMPS.  To convert to RTMP URL, make these manual edits to the Stream URL: 

• Replace rtmps:// with rtmp://
• Replace :443 with :1935

NOTE 2: Some platforms require a single line for the RTMP destination.  In that case, combine both of the entries together, making sure that there is a slash / between them.
