YouTube Live Integration | Streamcake Live Streaming

Publish live to YouTube from Streamcake: channel broadcasts, secure contribution URLs, health-gated go-live, OAuth refresh, and orderly shutdown.

Streamcake integrates with the YouTube Live Streaming API to provision live broadcasts and ingest streams on your channel, bind them for playback, and return secure contribution addresses plus a public watch link for operators. Per-channel OAuth credentials are stored in service settings with refresh support so API calls stay authorised. Activation polls broadcast lifecycle and ingest health before promoting the show to viewers, while shutdown completes the live session and leaves the programme available on the channel according to YouTube recording behaviour. Token verification renews short-lived access without rotating long-lived refresh material when operations succeed.

Feature

Broadcast & Ingest Provisioning

Create the channel-side live broadcast and ingest resources, bind them together, and return contribution targets plus a public watch address for your production team.

Per-Channel OAuth Storage

Keep short-lived access and long-lived refresh material in service settings so each YouTube channel integration authenticates independently within Streamcake.

Health-Aware Go-Live

Poll broadcast lifecycle and ingest health until the platform reports a healthy active feed, then advance the broadcast through testing into the live viewing state.

Orderly Broadcast Completion

End the live session through the platform transition so viewers see the show conclude while the channel retains the completed programme for replay where recording is enabled.

Access Verification & Refresh

Renew short-lived access tokens using stored refresh material and persist updated settings so downstream workflow steps never run with expired credentials.

Operations & Monitoring Signals

Expose broadcast lifecycle, ingest health tiers, and token timing cues so monitoring systems can align dashboards with YouTube-side state during live events.
