Before you create a live stream, you must first select a streaming platform. SparqFest's role is to serve as promoter and gatekeeper to the live stream. An example configuration might look like this:

  • Live stream tool: OBS
  • Live stream platform: Twitch
  • Promotional page: SparqFest
  • Viewing page: Twitch 

Before you can fully configure SparqFest for a live stream, you will need to know the URL for the viewing page. Thus, the typical process is:

  1. Configure the live stream platform and get the URL for the viewing page
  2. Configure SparqFest
  3. Configure the live stream tool
