Updates to the YouTube Live Streaming API: Live Chat, Fan Funding, Sponsors - XSplit, Gameshow, Nightbot, Discord demonstrate integration uses
A whole bunch of new additions to the Live Streaming API, getting you access to all those great chat messages, fan funding alerts and new sponsor messages!
* Fan Funding events, which occur when a user makes a one-time voluntary payment to support a creator.
* Live Chat events, which allow you to read the content of a YouTube live chat in real time, as well as adding new chat messages on behalf of the authenticated channel.
* Live Chat bans, which enable the automated application of chat “time-outs” and “bans.”
* Sponsors, which allows access to a list of YouTube users that are sponsoring the channel. A sponsor provides recurring monetary support to a creator and receives special benefits.
A number of companies had early access and are launching new features.
