RTMP cannot connect to kick's live stream

Question

I'm trying to connect to the kick.com live streaming platform using RTMP, but the problem is that I don't know where to put the stream key. I tried both auth and token but all results in 'Failed to connect'..

import librtmp

stream_key = "sk_us-west-XXXXXXXXXX"

# Create a connection with stream key
con = librtmp.RTMP(
    "rtmps://real1c1b171.global-contribute.live-video.net",
    live=True,
    token=stream_key
)

# librtmp.exceptions.RTMPError: Failed to connect
con.connect()

Answer 1

You can append the key at the end of the URL.

E.g. in your case, it would be: rtmps://real1c1b171.global-contribute.live-video.net/sk_us-west-XXXXXXXXXX.
