- As a workaround, please create a custom RTMPS stream target and use the Facebook Live Producer to gather the required credentials. Please see the steps below:
- Create a custom stream target (See step 2 on how to get the RTMPS credentials from Facebook Live Producer). See the screenshot below:
- Fill in the custom stream target details:
- -Choose RTMPS as the destination
-Copy and paste the Primary URL (removing the rtmps:// in the beginning).
It will be live-api-s.facebook.com:443/rtmp/
- -Choose RTMPS as the destination
-Copy and paste the Stream Name/Stream Key from the Facebook page.
-All other fields can be left blank.
- Please see the screenshot below:
