The Stream URL and Stream key are relevant information to paste in your encoding software configuration:

• Stream URL: Dailymotion uses the RTMP video streaming protocol. Paste the Stream URL in your encoding software so it can send your stream to the Dailymotion servers.
• Stream key: this is your unique stream identifier that authorizes your stream to go live on your Dailymotion channel.

Important: Never share your Stream keys! This is a sensitive data that could lead to compromising your Dailymotion channel when leaked.
