Twitch events, straight into Airtable
Every follow, subscription, or stream going live — posted to Airtable the moment it happens. No Airtable app to install, no monthly automation subscription.
The gap this fills: Twitch doesn't ship an official Airtable app. If you want follow, subscription, or stream going live to show up in Airtable the moment it happens, the usual options are a paid third-party bot, custom code, or routing everything through a $20–50/month automation platform just to move one webhook from one URL to another. ZestyGlue does exactly that one thing for $9/month.

A real Twitch event, shown as ZestyGlue formats it for Airtable.
Setup — about two minutes
- Create the connector. In ZestyGlue, start a new Twitch → Airtable connector. You'll get a unique webhook URL right away.
- Point Twitch at it. Create an EventSub subscription via the Twitch API with transport.method set to webhook and transport.callback set to your ZestyGlue webhook URL.
- Set the transport secret. Use the same secret you set as transport.secret when creating the subscription — enter it into ZestyGlue so every event can be verified as genuinely from Twitch. Twitch's one-time verification handshake is handled automatically.
- Point Airtable at ZestyGlue. Create a token at airtable.com/create/tokens scoped to your base, copy the Base ID from its URL, and make sure the target table has two single-line-text fields named “Title” and “Details”.
Under the hood: Twitch requires a one-time verification handshake when you create an EventSub subscription — ZestyGlue answers it automatically, so the only manual step is creating the subscription itself.

Questions
Is my EventSub Secret safe with ZestyGlue?
It's encrypted at rest with Fernet symmetric encryption before it ever touches disk, it's never logged, and it's never displayed again in the dashboard after you enter it — only a masked placeholder is shown.
Do I need to be a Twitch Affiliate or Partner to use EventSub?
No — EventSub webhook subscriptions are available to any Twitch account with a registered application; affiliate/partner status isn't required for events like follows.
Does the verification handshake need to happen every time?
No, just once when you first create the subscription — ZestyGlue answers it automatically.
Which Airtable plan do I need?
Airtable's free plan includes API access and is enough for ZestyGlue to create records — no paid plan required.
What happens if my ZestyGlue subscription lapses?
Events are silently dropped rather than causing errors on Twitch's side — Twitch never sees a failure response, so it won't retry aggressively or flag your webhook as broken. Your dashboard will simply stop showing new events until you resubscribe.
