Data Types

Three Types, Infinite Possibilities

Global variables support three data types, each designed for different automation scenarios. All can persist across software restarts.

boolean

Boolean

True/false toggles for states like "subathon active", "VIP mode enabled", or "chat game running".

number

Number

Counters, scores, and thresholds. Track donation totals, death counts, or community challenges.

text

Text

Dynamic strings for messages, labels, or status text. Update overlay titles, chat responses, and more.

How It Works

Create a Variable

Define a global variable with a name, type, and default value. Choose whether it persists across restarts or resets on launch.

name: death_count
type: number
default: 0
persist: true

Trigger Actions

Use the new Global Variable actions to set, increment, decrement, or manipulate variable values when events fire.

on Twitch Sub:
  action: increment
  variable: sub_count
  amount: 1

Use Everywhere

Insert variables as dynamic placeholders in overlays, chat messages, and any text input across TipLink.

{{ global.death_count }}
{{ global.sub_count }}
{{ global.current_game }}

What Can You Build?

Persistent Leaderboards

Track top supporters across streams. Combine with custom overlay widgets to display a live leaderboard that persists between sessions.

Chat Games & Interactions

Build point systems, voting counters, or chat-controlled mini-games using number variables that update in real-time from events.

Subathon & Marathon Timers

Use boolean variables to toggle subathon mode and number variables to track added time. Display it all in your overlay.

Dynamic Status Messages

Update overlay text, chat responses, or sound triggers dynamically based on text variables you change from your dashboard.
