Example

How it works

Get a Govee API key.
In Govee Home, open Profile, then Settings, then Apply for API Key. Submit the form and check your email for the key, including your spam folder.
Choose a compatible light.
Paste the key on the dashboard’s Govee page and pick a colour-capable light from the list. The key is stored encrypted.
Create the reward.
Create a channel-point reward on the Govee page. Redeem it with blue or #00ccff to test that your light turns on and changes colour.

What chat can send

Colour names: 18 English colour names, including red, blue, purple, warm and gold.
Hex codes: #00ccff or #0cf for an exact shade.
The reply: The bot confirms the colour change in chat. Edit the reply on the Govee page.
Refunds: Points are refunded automatically if the colour is unrecognised or the light cannot be reached.
Compatible lights: Pick a colour-capable light from the device list shown after you add your Govee API key.

Rewards work only while you are live by default. Turn off Live only on the Govee page to allow changes between streams.

FAQ

Which Govee lights work?

Use a colour-capable light listed on the Govee page after you add your API key. Choose a device from that list before creating its reward.

Can chat control more than one light?

Yes. Create a reward for each light on the Govee page, or group lights so one reward changes them all. Viewers choose by redeeming a reward.

What if a viewer types a colour the bot doesn't know?

The bot refunds their points and suggests an English colour name such as blue or a hex code such as #00ccff.

Is my Govee key safe?

The key is stored encrypted and is not displayed after you save it. You can remove it from the Govee page at any time.

Is it free?

Yes. The Govee integration is included in the free plan.
