##Disabling archives on a per stream basis

Normally when streaming to twitch (assuming you’re stream to our main live cluster) you stream to the url:

rtmp://live.twitch.tv/app/$STREAMKEY

To stream with no archives being recorded for you, add the url parameter ‘no_archive’ to your stream key.

rtmp://live.twitch.tv/app/$STREAMKEY?no_archive

The url should still be a valid url, so if you’ve already attached other url parameters to the stream key be sure to encode properly. Example, if you had set the broadcaster param to example, when adding no_archive your url would look like:

rtmp://live.twitch.tv/app/$STREAMKEY?broadcaster=example&no_archive
