PostQueen will post chat messages and colored announcements into your own Twitch chat, such as a go-live reminder. Twitch's API cannot publish videos or posts, so chat is what PostQueen sends.

  <Card title="Text" icon="type">
    Up to 500 characters per message.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Media" icon="image">
    None. Chat is text only: media on the post is not sent.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Post types" icon="layers">
    Chat message or announcement, with replies after it.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Analytics" icon="chart-line">

  </Card>
</CardGroup>

**Not supported:** videos and clips, the stream title, category and tags, and chats of channels you do not own.

## Connect Twitch

<Note>
  Twitch is listed in **Add Channel**, but it cannot be connected on PostQueen yet. It will post into the chat of the Twitch channel you sign in with.
</Note>

## Post settings

Each Twitch post in the composer has these settings:

* **Message Type**: **Chat Message** or **Announcement**. It starts on **Chat Message**.
* **Announcement Color**: **Primary (Default)**, **Blue**, **Green**, **Orange** or **Purple**. Shown for announcements only.

The field names and values for the API are on [Twitch posting settings](/public-api/providers/twitch).

## Good to know

* **Add comment** adds follow-up messages, each with its own delay and no media. Each chat message replies to the one before. When the post is an announcement, the follow-ups are announcements too.
* Before a post is scheduled, PostQueen checks that each message has at most 500 characters.
* PostQueen does not read Twitch's answer to an announcement, so it is recorded as posted even when Twitch refused it.
* The link to a published message is your channel page, not the message.
