This may be an old thread but I came across it and figured that I would give a final answer   The twitch api is json based and to recieve your stream key you need to authorize your app for use with the api  You do so under the connections tab within your profile on twitch tv itself   Down the bottom of said tab there is  register your app  or something similar  Register it and you ll get a client-id header for your get requests   Now you need to attach your Oauthv2 key to your headers or as a param during the query to the following get request      curl -H  Accept  application vnd twitchtv v3 json  -H  Authorization  OAuth       -X GET https   api twitch tv kraken channel   documentataion here  As you can see in the documentation above  if you ve done these two things  your stream key will be made available to you   As I said - Sorry for the bump but some people do find it hard to read the twitch  api    Hope that helps somebody in the future
