How to stream to Instagram with Wave.video
It's surprisingly easy to stream from wave.video Live-streaming studio to your Instagram account. All studio features will be available for you during the show.
Before start, please check general instruction on setting up RTMP destination.
Now you'll need to get your streaming URL and a key using YellowDuck
Once it's installed, login to your Instagram account via YellowDuck. Please note, login will not work if you have 2-factour authentication enabled.
After the login, you'll see the URL and the key. Copy them to the RTMP settings window here, at the Destinations page.
Once the URL and the key added, save the custom destination at wave.video by pressing “Add RTMP server”.
Now, you can configure the stream and enter the studio. Set up your environment and get ready to stream 😎
We're almost finished. All you need to do now is:
Start streaming in wave.video studio by pressing Go live
And start stream at YellowDuck by pressing “Start broadcast”.
In the same way, finish your broadcast when needed.
Important things about Instagram streaming:
The key has a short lifetime. You need to setup RTMP destination right before the actual stream
You'll need to add Instagram as a destination before any new stream because of this
