The integration for Twitch Single Sign-On (SSO) requires setting up environment variables and acquiring special identifiers and keys from the Twitch Developer Console. Below you'll find detailed instructions to guide you through the process.

Required Environment Variables

Ensure the following environment variables are added to your .env file:

• TWITCH_CLIENT_ID: Your Twitch OAuth client ID
• TWITCH_CLIENT_SECRET: Your Twitch OAuth client secret

Required Scope for Twitch OAuth

To successfully use Twitch SSO, the following OAuth scope must be enabled:

• user:read:email

Instructions to Acquire Required Keys

1. Create a Twitch Developer Account

   • Navigate to Twitch Developer Console.
   • If you don't already have a developer account, you'll need to create one.

2. Register Your Application

   • Log in to the Twitch Developer Console.
   • Click on the "Your Console" tab.
   • Click on "Register Your Application".
   • Fill out the required details, including:
     • Name: Name your application.
     • OAuth Redirect URLs: Add the URLs that Twitch should redirect to after OAuth authentication.
     • Category: Select the category that best describes your application.

3. Retrieve Your Client ID and Client Secret

   • After registering, your application will be assigned a Client ID and a Client Secret.
   • Copy the Client ID to TWITCH_CLIENT_ID and the Client Secret to TWITCH_CLIENT_SECRET in your .env file.

Summary

Your .env file should look something like this:

TWITCH_CLIENT_ID=your_twitch_client_id
TWITCH_CLIENT_SECRET=your_twitch_client_secret

Replace your_twitch_client_id and your_twitch_client_secret with the actual values obtained from the Twitch Developer Console.
