Singular.live API Integration | Data Stream API for Cloud Live Graphics

What is Singular.live integration?

Singular.live is a cloud-based live graphics platform used for streaming and broadcast overlays. It publishes a developer portal, including a REST API and a Data Stream API designed for low-latency, high-frequency updates. You send JSON to a data stream with a PUT request, link the stream to a composition, and the graphics update live.

Who uses Singular.live?

Streaming producers, leagues, esports and broadcasters use Singular for browser-based overlays without dedicated graphics hardware.

Key components

• Data Stream API: PUT JSON to a private-token endpoint for fast live updates

• Data Stream Manager: Creates streams and issues private and public tokens

• Compositions: Graphics templates that receive linked data streams

• REST API: Platform API for apps and control

How integration works

• Send data: PUT JSON to the data stream endpoint with the private token

• Link: connect the stream to a composition

• Script: compositions can receive stream data in composition scripts

Example

curl -X PUT https://datastream.singular.live/datastreams/{privateToken} \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"homeScore":13,"awayScore":10,"clock":"04:21"}'
