# Kick Channel Points / Rewards to Event Flow Actions

Use the Event Flow Editor to listen for Kick reward redemptions, and keep the Flow Actions overlay open for sound or media output.

## Overview

Kick calls these channel rewards/redemptions. In Social Stream Ninja they come through as a reward event, so the Event Flow trigger to use is `Channel Point Redemption`.

This is not configured in the Points System page unless you want SSN's own loyalty points commands. Kick reward redemptions should be handled in Event Flow.

## Exact Setup

1. Create the reward in Kick first.
   - Use the Kick dashboard to create the channel reward.
   - Copy the exact reward title, for example `Sound Alert` or `Play Video`.

2. Open the Kick bridge source.
   - Open `https://socialstream.ninja/sources/websocket/kick.html?channel=YOUR_KICK_CHANNEL`.
   - Click `Sign in with Kick`.
   - Enter or confirm the channel slug, then click `Connect channel`.
   - Keep this page open while streaming.

   The normal popup `Open chat` button for Kick opens `https://kick.com/YOUR_CHANNEL/chatroom`. That can catch visible "redeemed" chat/system messages, but the Kick bridge page is the reliable path for structured reward events.

3. Open the Flow Actions overlay.
   - In the SSN popup, scroll to `Flow Actions`.
   - Click the `Flow Actions` link or copy it.
   - Put that URL in OBS as a Browser Source, or keep it open in a browser.
   - The URL looks like `https://socialstream.ninja/actions.html?session=YOUR_SESSION`.

   Audio clips, media overlays, text overlays, and OBS actions need this page open.

4. Open the Event Flow Editor.
   - In the SSN popup, scroll to `Flow Actions`.
   - Click `Event Flow Editor`.
   - Or open `https://socialstream.ninja/actions/`.

5. Build the flow.
   - Add trigger: `User & Source` -> `Channel Point Redemption`.
   - Set `Reward Name` to the Kick reward title, or leave it blank to match any reward.
   - Optional: add `User & Source` -> `From Source`, set it to `Kick`, then combine both triggers with an `AND` node.
   - Add action: `Media & Effects` -> `Play Audio Clip`, then paste the audio URL.
   - Add action: `Media & Effects` -> `Display Media Overlay`, then paste the image/GIF/video URL.
   - Connect the trigger, or the `AND` node, to the action nodes.
   - Save the flow and make sure it is active.

6. Use the importable example if preferred.
   - Import `actions/examples/kick-channel-points-action-flow.json`.
   - Replace `REPLACE_WITH_KICK_REWARD_NAME`.
   - Replace the sample audio and media URLs.
   - Save the imported flow.

## Useful Template Text

Use these in `Show Text`, `Speak Text`, or message actions:

- `{username}`: redeemer display name.
- `{message}`: Kick reward title plus user input when Kick provides it.
- `{source}`: platform name.
- `{meta}`: structured reward data as JSON.

Kick bridge reward payloads use:

```json
{
  "type": "kick",
  "event": "reward",
  "chatname": "ViewerName",
  "chatmessage": "Sound Alert - optional user input",
  "meta": {
    "rewardTitle": "Sound Alert",
    "rewardId": "123",
    "redemptionId": "456",
    "cost": 1000,
    "status": "fulfilled",
    "userInput": "optional user input",
    "redeemer": "ViewerName"
  }
}
```

## Quick Test

In the Event Flow Editor test panel:

1. Set `Source Platform` to `Kick`.
2. Set `Username` to anything.
3. Set `Message` to the Kick reward name, such as `Sound Alert`.
4. Set `Event Type` to `reward - Channel point/reward redemption`.
5. Run the test.

If the flow has a reward name filter, the test message must include that reward name.

## Common Failures

- Nothing appears: the Flow Actions overlay is not open, or it is using a different session.
- Kick redemptions do not trigger: the Kick bridge page is not signed in, not connected, or was closed.
- Only chat works: the normal Kick chatroom is open, but the bridge source is not.
- The wrong reward triggers: set `Reward Name` in the Channel Point Redemption trigger.
- Local media does not play: a hosted `actions.html` page cannot read a local disk path. Use a reachable URL, or follow the [Event Flow media hosting guide](media-hosting-event-flow.html) to run both Flow Actions and the media locally.
