Stream Deck Trigger
Runs on: Shared — pure logic, runs on the Streamerly backend or inside a chatbox overlay.
The Stream Deck Trigger lets you fire a flow directly from a button on your Stream Deck hardware. Give the trigger a name and it will appear in the Avatar Stream Deck plugin's button dropdown, so you can assign it to any key. Pressing that key sends a pulse through the flow just as if a Twitch event had fired it.
You can place multiple Stream Deck Trigger nodes across different flows and they all appear independently in the plugin. This makes it easy to run several unrelated flows from different Stream Deck buttons without building a single mega-flow.
Outputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
pulse | pulse | Fires once each time the assigned Stream Deck button is pressed. |
Configuration
- Trigger Name: The name that appears in the Stream Deck plugin's button dropdown. Must be filled in for the trigger to be selectable. Use a clear, descriptive name like "Scene Reset" or "Play Intro Clip."
Example
Create a flow that sends a custom chat message and triggers a sound alert. Add a Stream Deck Trigger node named "Hype Button" as the entry point. In the Stream Deck plugin, assign a key to "Hype Button." Any time you press that key during your stream, the message posts and the alert fires instantly — no need to touch your keyboard or mouse.
