Here in our Quick Start guides you'll find examples to help you understand the basics of working with our tools to create fully interactive, engaging Twitch Extensions.

Add Muxy functionality to your Twitch Extension

Whether you are a game developer, an extension writer, or a streamer, you can use Muxy-enabled extensions to improve the gaming and viewing experience, promote viewer engagement with interaction and rewards, and monetize your audience.

• If you have an existing Twitch Extension, you can use these steps to register it with Muxy to add functionality and use Muxy services.

• If you don't already have one, create a new Twitch Extension in the Twitch Developer Console.

Register your extension with Muxy

1. In the Twitch Developer Console, look at the Extension Settings and copy the Extension Client ID and Extension Secret. You will use these to register the extension with Muxy.

2. Go to the Muxy Developer Portal and click Register New Extension.

3. Fill in the Extension Name, Client ID, and Secret.

🚧

Keep the Client ID

Store your Client ID where you can find it again-- you will also use it to initialize the MEDKit SDK each time the extension starts up.

Once you have registered your extension, your Twitch Extension Client ID also serves as your Muxy Client ID. Every call into the Muxy SDK is authorized by this clientId value
