Overview

User Inputs let you manually control Smart Inputs during a broadcast. They’re perfect for real-time interactions—like triggering animations, updating scores, or switching graphics on the fly.

What Are User Inputs?

While Smart Inputs connect your data to your animation, User Inputs let you or your production team manually update those inputs.

They act like a control panel for your overlay: toggles, timers or texts, and more to come!

How to Create a User Input

  1. Create a new animation
    During the configuration scroll down to the node editor.

  2. Click "User Inputs"
    Select the type of your User Input, give it a clear name, like Transition In, Pause timer, or Event name and press Enter.

  3. Connect the Smart Input attributes to your View models.
