Notify Discourse users about your livestream with Twitch EventSub and Courier

On January 6, Riley Napier joined me for our first Courier Live of the new year. Having recently set up webhooks using Twitch EventSub, I wanted to walk through how you could trigger notifications about your Twitch livestreams using Courier. We did this using a Glitch application and explained how to set it up and start accepting requests from Twitch. We then created a notification in Courier and used the Webhook Provider to make a request to the Discourse API to display a banner on the community forum.
Check out the video below to watch us:
- Walk through receiving a Twitch EventSub event using a Glitch application.
- Use the Courier Webhook Provider to use the Discourse API to display a banner on the forum.
- Use Jsonnet to personalize the Discourse banner content.
Code for the Node.js/ExpressJS server to handle the Twitch EventSub requests can be found in the Courier Twitch EventSub Glitch application. Remix it and start sending your own Twitch notifications.
Be sure to Like the video and Subscribe to our YouTube channel.
Is there something you’d like to see us do using Courier? Let us know and it might be the subject of our next Courier Live. Follow us on Twitch to be notified when we go live.

How Product Teams Build, Test and Ship Multichannel Notifications in Design Studio
Product teams need to build, test, and ship notifications across multiple channels without filing an engineering ticket every time. Courier's Design Studio is the workspace for that: a template builder, visual channel routing, omnichannel testing, and publishing in one place. This post walks through the traditional template designer paradigm, how it splits effort across too many tools, and outlines a path for product and growth teams to ship transactional, product, and marketing notifications from a single workspace.

Customer Engagement Platforms Are Splintered. Message Orchestration Is the Fix
Customer engagement platforms are splintered. Some are built for campaigns, others for support automation, and others treat messaging as a transactional delivery problem. The result is collisions, blind spots, and message fatigue. The highest-leverage fix is solving the lifecycle-to-product and transactional vector with a message orchestration layer: one system that routes, suppresses, prioritizes, and observes messages across channels. Think air traffic control for user communications.
