Streampixel runs in three regions. Each project lives in one region, picked when you create the project. Pick the region closest to most of your viewers — distance is the single biggest factor in how responsive the stream feels.

​
Available regions

Region is set when you create a project and can’t be changed in place. To move a project, create a new one in the target region and re-upload your build.

​
Choosing a region

For globally distributed audiences, the simplest pattern is one project per region. Route viewers to the right share URL based on their location.

​
What’s shared across regions

Your account, dashboard, REST API, and billing are all global — same login and credentials no matter which region a project is in. What’s not shared: stream traffic, builds, and worker capacity all live in the project’s region. A regional outage only affects projects in that region.
There’s no automatic cross-region failover today. If you need redundancy, run parallel projects in two regions and pick the right one client-side.

​
Moving a project to a different region

1

Create a new project

In the dashboard, create a new project and pick the target region.
2

Re-upload your build

Submit the same .zip to the new project — via dashboard or Upload File API.
3

Update embed URLs

Switch your iframe src or Web SDK appId to point at the new project.
4

Decommission the old project

Once traffic is fully cut over, delete the old project from the dashboard.
