Check if a Twitch Stream is Live

## Introduction: This workflow template helps you determine if a Twitch user's stream is currently live or offline. ## Setup Instructions: The Document node holds the sample Twitch username you wish to check. You may adapt it in your workflow by replacing this with a chain that contains the Twitch username you want to check. This value is passed to the GraphQL node query as `$(Document).item.json.twitch` so make sure to change this based on your workflow. ## How it Works: The important nodes here are the `GraphQL` and `IF` nodes. The GraphQL queries the Twitch API, and then the output returns a document with the `stream` property. The IF node then checks if this property has a value; if `null`, it means the user is offline, otherwise the user is online or live. ## Common Use Cases: You can use this with other workflow templates to post live stream alerts to Twitter/X, Bluesky, and Discord via webhooks, etc., to notify your community to join your stream. You may also use an `LLM` node to write a custom alert based on the value of the property `title`. ## How to adjust this template If you want to check a list of Twitch channels, you can simply exchange the `Document` set node in the beginning with your list of channels. For more information on the GraphQL output, please see the official Twitch API documentation: [Get Streams](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference/#get-streams)
