Getting Started

Welcome to DomDimaBot! This guide will walk you through getting your bot connected and configured.

Authentication Levels

DomDimaBot has two levels of access:

Feature	Basic Access	Full Access
Custom commands	✅	✅
Chat interaction	✅	✅
AI personality chat	❌	✅
Channel rewards	❌	✅
Triggers & media	❌	✅
Moderation tools	❌	✅
Analytics	❌	✅
Streamer integrations	❌	✅

Basic Access is granted automatically when you first log in with Twitch.

Full Access requires you to authorize the bot to access your Twitch account with all required permissions.

Setup Process

1. Visit the dashboard

   Go to domdimabot.com and click Login with Twitch.

2. Authenticate with Twitch

   • If this is your first time, a DomDimaBot account will be created automatically
   • If you’ve used DomDimaBot before, you’ll be logged into your existing account

   At this point you have Basic Access and can use custom commands and basic chat features.

3. Authorize for Full Access (optional but recommended)

   Click Authorize Bot in the dashboard header.

   You’ll be redirected to Twitch to grant the required permissions. The bot needs access to moderation tools, chat, polls, predictions, subscriptions, and more — everything it needs to run your stream smoothly.

   Tip

   You must have 2FA enabled on your Twitch account to grant these permissions. No sensitive data like your stream key is ever requested.

   When you authorize, DomDimaBot automatically:

   • Creates default commands for your channel
   • Sets up default webhooks for live events
   • Configures your account with sensible defaults

   If you skip this step, you’ll need to set everything up manually.

4. Configure settings

   Set up your preferred language, timezone, and notification preferences from the dashboard.

5. Test your bot

   Type !ping in your Twitch chat to verify the bot is responding.
