You can now easily share information with your audience, ask and answer questions, discuss the stream and much more with the new Live chat.

To open the chat go to the Live 🔴 section in your dashboard, select an existing project or create a new one, open and you will see the chat.

The Live chat can be moderated by host(s) who can block user, pin, copy or delete messages in the chat. Viewers can disable the chat or change its appearance during viewing.

There are 2 ways to embed the chat:

1️⃣ Through embedding an iframe code:

You will find the Embed button on the right side, go to Chat and copy the code. Embedding chat is the same as Player iframe, so you can use both fixed size or responsive codes.

This way registration in chat for visitors will be processed on Kinescope’s side. Player and chat are in sync by default.

2️⃣ To allow already registered users go straight to the chat you can also embed it passing a member's username and user ID values.

For example:

<aside> 📎 Add iframe with URL https://kinescope.io/chat/200521174?username=${UserName}&id=${user_id}

</aside>

Where 200521174 - Live broadcast URL ID,  while $user_name and $user_id are the values you pass from your system (e.g. CMS)
