Instagram recently released its stream keys to more people so let's set up a vertical multistream with three different methods.
Stream Keys
Below is how to find your stream key on each platform.
Instagram - Switch to a professional account then on a desktop PC click on "Create" and choose "Live video". Choose a title and choose "public" and your stream key will appear.
TikTok LIVE - Join a free TikTok LIVE agency to get a stream key then obtain it from the LIVE Center.
YouTube - Hit create and press go live. Apart from the Aitum Vertical method, you don't need the stream key.
