Ad Break

Runs on: Shared — pure logic, runs on the Community backend or inside a chatbox overlay.

The Ad Break trigger fires whenever a Twitch ad break begins on your channel. This lets you automate actions around ad breaks, such as switching to a "Be Right Back" scene, muting alerts, or displaying a countdown timer for viewers.

The trigger provides the duration of the ad break in seconds, so you can tailor your response based on how long the ads will run.
