Kick Alerts

Alerts for every channel you follow — Goes live, Stream ends. Live alerts usually arrive within a minute or two of the stream starting.

On this page

Arclo watches a channel and posts an announcement when something new appears. The engine, the message editor, the filters and the behaviour options are the same on every platform — see Social Alerts for those. This page covers what is specific to Kick.

Adding a channel

Kick channel
Paste the channel name or its kick.com URL. For example: xqc or kick.com/xqc.
Channel
Where the alert is posted. A forum channel makes each alert its own thread.
AvailabilityNeeds a provider
This platform reaches an upstream service that Arclo's operator configures. If it is not reachable, the dashboard says so and the alert is still saveable — it starts working when the connection is.
