Open Activity in TipLink

The Activity page is the record of everything TipLink has received. It is the first place to look when an alert did not do what you expected.


Finding an Event

The filter row sits above the list, with the search box on the left and the menus on the right.

ControlWhat it does
Search eventsFree-text search across your events.
DateNarrow to a date range, with a calendar picker and shortcuts for Today, Last 7 days, Last 30 days and This month.
All PlatformsShow only events from the platforms you pick.
All Event TypesShow only the event types you pick, such as tips or follows.

They all work together. Click Clear filters to reset them at once.

The menus tell you how many matches to expect

The Platform and Event Type menus show a count next to each option, worked out against your current search and other filters. If a platform shows zero, filtering by it will give you nothing.

Event times

Times show as an age, such as 30s, 2h or 1d, and keep counting up while you leave the page open. Hover any of them to see the exact date and time.

This replaced a two-line full date, and the space it freed went to the message column, which used to get cut short.

Pagination

Page controls sit at the bottom of the list, below the events, and are hidden entirely when everything fits on one page.


Why Can't I See Chat Messages?

Chat messages are hidden from the Activity page by default. The notice explaining this now carries a button that controls visibility directly, so you can switch them on without hunting through a menu.

Chat also has to be recorded in the first place

Each platform account excludes Chat Message events by default, which means they are never saved. Open that account's settings on the Platforms page and remove Chat Message from Excluded Events if you want to keep them.


Replaying an Event

To run an event through your alerts again, click the circular arrow icon next to it.

This creates a new event, marked clearly with the text Replayed.

This is the easiest way to test a change to an alert using a real event you have already received.


Cancelling an Event

If an event is still running, for example a long chain of actions or a repeating device action, click the Cancel this event button next to it. Remaining actions are skipped and the event is marked Cancelled.

To stop everything that is waiting at once, go to Settings, unlock the Danger Zone and use Skip All Pending Events. Events already running are not affected.


Viewing Event Details

Click the magnifying glass on the right of any event to see its full detail, including:

  • The original event's raw information.
  • The result of every individual action.
  • Which alert or alerts fired.

The view starts from the event data itself rather than the wrapper that looks the same on every event, so what you actually care about is at the top.

ControlWhat it does
SearchFilters the details. A match deep in the data stays reachable through its parents, so nothing gets hidden.
CopyCopies the complete details to your clipboard.
Download JSONSaves the complete details to a file.
Copy and Download always give you everything

Both act on the full details, not on whatever the search happens to be showing.

Finding placeholder names

Everything listed under metadata in this view can be used as a placeholder. If you see metadata.id, you can write {{ id }} in an action. See Using Event Data in Actions.


Event Statuses

StatusWhat it means
In QueueWaiting to be processed.
ProcessingBeing processed right now.
SuccessEvery action on the matching alert worked.
Partial FailureSome actions worked and some failed.
Complete FailureEvery action failed.
ErrorSomething unexpected happened while processing.
No Matching Alert FoundThe event did not match any of your alerts, so nothing ran.
Multiple Alerts TriggeredMore than one alert fired for this event. Open the details view to see how each one did.
Rate LimitedBlocked by a cooldown.
Rate Limited (Queued)Held back by a cooldown and will run once it expires.
Rate Limited (Ignored)Blocked by a cooldown and discarded.
SkippedMarked as skipped, either by you or by Skip All Pending Events.
CancelledStopped part-way through.
Duplicate FollowA repeat follow from someone who has followed before, ignored so viewers cannot farm follow rewards. Turn this off with Block Repeat Follow Alerts in Settings.
LoggedA chat message that was recorded but not put through the alert system.
Nothing happened?

No Matching Alert Found means the event arrived fine but no alert matched it. Use the Event Testing Tool to see exactly which condition failed.


How Much Is Stored?

The stored event and chat message counts moved to the Settings page, where they sit next to the Danger Zone controls that delete them.


Exporting Events

Open the menu in the top right to save your history to a file:

OptionWhat it saves
Export Events (JSON)All non-chat events, in a format other software can read.
Export Events (CSV)All non-chat events, ready to open in a spreadsheet.
Export Chat Messages (JSON)Your stored chat messages.
Export Chat Messages (CSV)Your stored chat messages, ready for a spreadsheet.

Popout Windows

Two popouts let you keep an eye on activity while you stream:

PopoutWhat it shows
Activity FeedEvents as they arrive.
Combined ChatChat from every connected platform in one place.

Open either from the buttons above the event list, or from the menu.

Using a popout in your streaming software

Each popout has a copy button beside it that puts its address on your clipboard. Paste that into a browser source or browser panel in OBS Studio or Meld to keep the feed on a second monitor, or dock it inside your streaming software.

These addresses are local to your PC. They are not viewable by anyone else.


Send Test Event

The Send Test Event button at the top of the page opens the testing tool, where you can build an event by hand and either check whether an alert would fire, or fire it for real.

See Event Testing Tool.
