There are two likely causes of this issue. The first one is that something went wrong while connecting to Twitch. This generally means you are improperly handling your connection to twitch, and are adding logic to the On Login Failed output. Please ensure that you are only trying to do things after the login succeeds, and not before the login succeeds (the “default”/no name execution pin) or when the login fails.

Additionally, please check the logs for any notices that the login procedure may have failed. The other likely cause is that you are connecting to the wrong channel – in order to confirm this, please hard-code your username (https://www.twitch.tv/thisusername; ensure this is all lowercase) into the Connect To Twitch node. If this fixes the issue, please ensure you are using the username set in your login credentials, and try logging in again to refresh this “cache”.

Furthermore, a slightly less common issue is where you have used a username that contains capitalized letters (eg. HowToCompute instead of howtocompute). Twitch doesn’t like this, and this will sometimes result in your chat message events not being called at all! In order to confirm if this is the issue, please hard-code your username, and leave out any capitalization you may have in your username.

If this issue persists, please contact us as described in the I Still Can’t Fix My Issue section.
