Chat Commands
The main use of the chatbot is to let your viewers use commands to get more information or trigger specific actions. These are separated into default commands and custom commands.
Commands are grouped based on the required user level to run it. By default, commands are grouped into "Everyone", "Moderators" and "Super Moderators".
You can read more about chatbot commands in our Chatbot Commands Overview article.
User management
What is User Management?
User Management lets you give users special permissions by grouping them into user levels. All commands can be set to a specific user level, so you have full control over who can trigger each command.
What are all the different groups?
By default, viewers already have a specific user level depending on their role
| Group | Level | Description |
| Everyone | 100 | This is the basic level of every user in chat |
| Subscriber | 250 | Your twitch subs get this level |
| Regular | 300 |
You can set this level through user management |
| VIP | 400 |
Your twitch VIPs get this level |
| Moderator | 500 | Your twitch moderators get this level |
| Super Moderator | 1000 |
You can set this level through user management |
