Live stream to other platforms

Broadcast your webcast webinar to third-party social platforms (e.g., Facebook Live, YouTube Live, etc.) so viewers can watch from there.

GoTo Webinar only supports RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol) connections. RTMP is used for the transmission of audio, video, and other data between streaming servers. That means you'll need to manually enter the streaming information and initiate the live stream broadcast from the GoTo Webinar dashboard.
Note: Video sharing (YouTube or .MP4 files) is currently not displayed in the live stream.
Before you begin: From your dashboard, create a webcast webinar and then complete the following steps based on your preferred streaming platform.

Stream on Facebook or YouTube

  1. From your preferred streaming platform, set up your Facebook Live video or YouTube Live Stream.
  2. Find the Stream Key and Stream URL in the selected streaming platform:
    • If you set up an event in Facebook, find the upcoming live video and select Set Up Live Video. In the Get Started section, select Use Stream Key. Take note of the Server URL and Stream Key.
      Get Stream Keys from Facebook
    • If you set up an event in YouTube, log in and find the upcoming live video. In the Stream Settings section, take note of the Stream URL and Stream Key.
      Get Stream Keys from YouTube
  3. From the desired event in your webinar dashboard, select Settings.
  4. Under Live Streaming, select + Configure by the applicable streaming platform.
  5. Enter the Stream Key and Stream/Server URL from above, and then select Save.
    Note: Custom streaming platforms require the streaming service title and streaming page URL.
  6. When it's time for the live session, start the broadcast and then select Configure Live Stream.

    Result: The Configure Live Stream badge changes color to show that it's active.

  7. By the streaming platforms you configured, select Start Broadcast.
  8. To stop the live stream, select Stop Broadcast.
  9. When the session is over, end the webinar.

Live stream on LinkedIn

In order to live stream to LinkedIn, your account must be enabled with LInkedIn Live. If it isn't, learn how to apply.
  1. From the Settings of the desired session, select Live Streaming > LinkedIn > + Configure.
  2. Sign in using your LinkedIn credentials. When prompted to authorize GoTo access to your LinkedIn profile, select Allow.
  3. Choose whether you're on a member or organization account, and then enter the LinkedIn post title. Select Save.
  4. When it's time for the live session, select Start Broadcast next to LinkedIn.
    Note: You can only stream on LinkedIn for 4 hours at a time.

    Start Live Stream Broadcast
  5. To stop the live stream, select Stop Broadcast.
