Show History

How past shows are stored, what's accessible, and what's local-only versus planned for sync.

Last updated 2026-05-23 · Applies to NotBot 1.3.4+

Every show NotBot has watched is stored locally on your computer and is accessible from the Show History tab in the global top bar above the split app window.

How shows are tracked

A new show entry is created automatically as soon as NotBot detects a livestream URL in the built-in browser, typically when you open the show, before any auction has ended. From that point, NotBot fills in events as they happen. Each show gets its own independent set of:

  • Buyer numbers (starting at #1).
  • Auction, giveaway, and Buy It Now records.
  • Bid feed and chat participants.
  • Print queue entries.
  • Stats: participants, revenue, average sale, and so on.

Buyer numbers are scoped to the show. Buyer #5 in one show is not the same person as buyer #5 in another show.

The Show History tab

The Show History tab opens a two-panel view:

Left panel: show list

  • A searchable list of every past show.
  • Each row shows the date, stream name and seller, revenue, auction count, buyer count, and duration.
  • The current live show, if any, is marked LIVE.
  • Sortable by date, revenue, auction count, or buyer count. Other columns are display-only.
  • Per-row action: Delete the show.
  • Click a row to load that show into the right panel.

Right panel: show detail

Loads the selected show's username tracking and history sub-tabs. The username tracking section lets you reprint an existing buyer's label. From the auction sub-tab you can reprint an auction's label. Purchase and giveaway event-label reprints from a past show are not currently exposed in the history sub-tabs.

Where the data lives

All show data lives in a local database on your computer:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/notbot/
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\notbot\

Nothing about your shows is sent to the cloud as part of show-history storage. See Privacy for what does and doesn't leave your machine.

Cross-device sync (planned)

Show history today is local to the machine that ran NotBot during the show. If you start a show on a laptop and finish it on a desktop, the two will have separate histories. Cross-device sync is on the roadmap but is not yet shipped.
