To get started, please visit Facebook's Live Producer.
From this page, you can select existing broadcasts or create a new one using the “Go live” or “Create live video event” options.
Go live
You’ll want to select this option when you want to go live right away or within 24 hours.
After choosing this option, you can select your destination (Timeline, Page, or Group), control the privacy (Timeline only), and set the video's posting time.
Once you're all set up, you'll see the Stream Key for your broadcast in the middle of the page.
For our Ingest Server URL we'll want to use the following: rtmps://live-api-s.facebook.com:443/rtmp/
Now we'll want to bring this information into our RTMP Destination inside of JOBY Studio as shown below:
Once your destination is all set up, you're ready to go live!
Create live video event
You’ll want to select this option if you’d like your audience to be able to respond to your event and make your live video available in more places.
After choosing this option, you can set up the event by filling in the name, date, privacy, and description. Once done, hit the blue “Next” button.
On the next page, you can preview the event as well as set up some more advanced options.
To get your stream key for the event, click on the “Stream” option under “Settings”. You’ll then find it on the right hand side of the page.
