One way to retrieve viewer count for a channel is by using the GetStream command. Keep in mind API service quotas when using this approach. Another option would be to manually track viewers in your application.

  • amazon-ivs-react-native-broadcast is the library used to broadcast. Is there any option in this package to retrieve the view count

  • There is no way to retrieve the viewer count via the broadcast SDK. You will need to use the AWS SDK as mentioned above, or manually track viewers in a back end application.

Amazon IVS channels can be monitored through Amazon CloudWatch. See info on IVS Monitoring here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ivs/latest/LowLatencyUserGuide/stream-health.html

Here is a link to the IVS API https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ivs/latest/LowLatencyAPIReference/Welcome.html

Also note there are several Player SDKs that can be incorporated into a player app.
