Connect Streamer.bot

How to connect Kinkajou Bridge to Streamer.bot as a user.

What Bridge does

Bridge acts as a WebSocket client to Streamer.bot’s WebSocket Server. When a printer event occurs, Bridge calls DoAction with a name like Kinkajou.print.started and a set of arguments (printer id, name, plugin id, and event payload).

Only one Streamer.bot connection is configured in Bridge. It receives events from every printer — cloud-linked and standalone alike.

Setup in Bridge

  1. In Streamer.bot, enable Servers/Clients → WebSocket Server and note the host, port, endpoint, and password (if any).
  2. In Bridge, open Streamer.bot in the top nav.
  3. If you are not connected yet, fill in:
    • Host (often 127.0.0.1)
    • Port (often 8080)
    • Endpoint (often /)
    • Password (optional)
  4. Save. Bridge stays on a connection summary with a status badge. Use Edit connection to change settings (leave the password blank to keep the current value).

If the WebSocket cannot connect, Bridge keeps the integration in an error state — fix the server settings in Streamer.bot, then edit and save again (or restart Bridge).
