Control OBS from the dashboard
Switch scenes, start the stream and toggle sources without alt-tabbing.
OBS only listens to programs on the same PC, so this is one of the things the desktop app exists for. The website cannot reach OBS on its own.
- In OBS, open Tools then WebSocket Server Settings.
- Tick Enable WebSocket server.
- Click Show Connect Info and copy the password.
- Open the GriddleBot desktop app and go to the OBS tab.
- Paste the password and click Connect.
- Your scenes appear. Clicking one switches OBS.
Leave the port as OBS gives it unless you know you changed it. A wrong port fails in exactly the same way as a wrong password, which makes it hard to tell which you got wrong.
You can hide scenes you never switch to - separators, staging scenes - so the list stays short. That only affects this list, not OBS.
