How to use YouTube Live chat

Live chat is turned on by default. After your live stream ends, it will be archived and viewers can replay the video along with the live chat. Live chat only shows up on YouTube watch pages -- not on embedded players.

Note: Live chat is not available if your channel or live stream's audience is set as made for kids.

Live chat views

Viewers can choose between two views of Live chat at any time.

  • Top chat: This view filters messages such as potential spam to help make chat easier to read and more useful.
  • Live chat: This view is not filtered. It shows all chat messages as they come in.

Note: Live streams that are trimmed in the video editor will not have Chat replay.

Live chat badges

Live chat badges identify the Streamer  and Moderator. If your channel is eligible for memberships, you can create custom membership badges that show up in live chat too.

Emojis

Emojis are small pictures that can express an emotion, idea, and more. Anyone can use a large number of emoji, and creators can make custom emojis that are available as a channel membership perk.

Add emoji to your comment or message

On mobile: While writing a chat message, tap  to add a YouTube emojis or the emoji icon on your device's keyboard to add emojis from your device's operating system.

Subscribers-only and members-only chat

  2. From the bottom of the chat window, tap Create a poll .
  3. Create your poll, and then select Ask your community.

  • have between 2 - 4 options.
  • only be seen live. They do not show up in live chat replays.

Embed live chat

During a live stream, you can embed live chat on your own site by using an iframe.

Note: embedding live chat isn't available on mobile web.

  1. Get the video ID for the live stream. You can get the video ID from the watch page URL (youtube.com/watch?v=12345). In this case, the video ID is '12345'.
  2. Get the domain URL for the site you want to embed chat on. If you're embedding chat on www.example.com/youtube_chat, your embedding domain is "www.example.com".
  3. Combine the embedded URL in the following way: https://www.youtube.com/live_chat?v=12345&embed_domain=www.example.com.
    • This URL is for your iframe. Note the embed_domain must match the URL of the page you're embedding the chat on. If they are different, the embedded chat will not open.
