Activity

Use these variables in a command response to thank a follower, acknowledge a donation, or welcome a raid. They use the activity that triggered the command.

Build a custom message

Thanks for subscribing for {amount} at {subtype}, {user}!

For a Twitch resub activity, this can produce:

Thanks for subscribing for 12 months at Tier 1, Alex!

Change the words around the variables to customize or translate the response.

Variables

Variable	Use	Example
{user}	Name of the person who triggered the activity.	Alex
{recipient}	Display name of the first gift recipient, when available.	Jamie
{value}	Activity value, adjusted for decimal places.	12
{unit}	Unit for the value, with singular or plural wording.	months
{amount}	Formatted value with currency or the singular/plural unit.	$12.34, 1 sub, 12 months
{type}	Readable activity type.	Resub
{subtype}	Subscription tier, reward name, or other activity subtype.	Tier 1
{message}	Message supplied with the activity, when available.	Great stream!
{provider}	Platform that created the activity.	twitch
{system_message}	Ready-to-display message supplied by the platform.	Alex gifted 5 subs

The available details depend on the activity and platform. For example, a follow does not have a donation amount or subscription tier.

Platform system message

Use {system_message} on its own to display the platform’s activity message:

{system_message}

This is different from the viewer’s message ({message}). It is empty when the activity has no system message.

Donations and gifts

For a donation:

Thanks for donating {amount}, {user}!

For a gifted subscription with a recipient and tier:

Thanks for gifting a {subtype} sub to {recipient}, {user}!

Value and amount

Use {amount} for a complete amount: $12.34, 1 sub, 12 months, or 100 bits. It includes the currency when present, otherwise the activity’s singular or plural unit. Use {value} and {unit} separately when you want to customize or translate the wording.

Chat-triggered commands

Activity-specific variables are left unchanged when there is no activity trigger. {user} still works in chat-triggered commands as described on the User page.
