There is no HLS API. The only supported way to stream to Twitch is RTMP. ---

For the general population, as a 3rd party developer you do not have any access other than RTMP. Any other app may have a special agreement that you may not know about. You only have access to what is documented on the Twitch developer documentation. ---

I did not need be produced RTMP URL and key in twitch website. Any app can ask for permission to access the users stream key, then just get a list of ingest servers, add the stream key, and start an RTMP stream at the press of a button. It can be done entirely automatically after the user connects with their Twitch account, which is why there’s no need for the user to enter an RTMP url or anything. ---
