Setting up a Persistent Key

Setting up a Persistent Key in Facebook will help streamline some functions, such as pre-scheduling Live events.

1. Visit https://www.facebook.com/live/producer or create a new Facebook post and choose Live Video, as shown in the image below.

2. Scroll below the black preview screen and select Use Stream Key, and then check the box next to Use a Persistent Stream Key, as shown in the image below.

4. Find the 'Live API' section and copy the Server URL and Stream Key from Facebook into your CWM settings. In CWM, navigate to the 'Stream Settings' page and look for the Facebook Live section and paste both the Server URL and Stream Key into the appropriate fields. Please Save Changes.

Now that you've set up your persistent key going live on Facebook is easy.
