Song requests: how to set up the !sr command

Let your chat choose the music

Song requests are one of the easiest ways to keep viewers engaged. With Twir, a viewer types !sr with a YouTube link or just a song name, and the track lands in a shared queue. You play it in the built-in player in the dashboard or send it straight to your Spotify queue.

You stay in control of what plays: set the maximum song length, queue size and requests per user, require a minimum watch time, number of messages or follow age, and ban channels, words, songs or users. Requests can also be tied to a channel points reward, and points are refunded if a request fails.
