Hey all! In my tabletop game, I don't hide my rolls often. When we moved to Roll20 during the pandemic, I wanted very much to integrate Roll20 with D&D Beyond. For the most part, it has worked beautifully!
The one thing I can't figure out is how to show my monster rolls from D&D Beyond on the Roll20 screen? Meaning: I click on the VTT button to roll an attack and damage for, say, a Kobold on D&D Beyond, but have the roll show up in Roll20 for all of my players to see. However, when I do, my players can't see it. I have it set on Roll20 so the rolls are not hidden (clicking on GM at the top of the dice screen does this) and they can see when I roll from there, but not when I roll from D&D Beyond.
There is also a Roll20 game settings (gear symbol from the game launch page) value that can be set to "Never Whisper Rolls". I don't know if that might be a factor when using Beyond 20. It is initially set when you create the game in Roll20.

Any idea how I can get this to work?
Thanks!

It's not doing it by default, though I wish it was! The default appears to be hiding the rolls. I want them to be public.
It's connected, I can see the rolls. Just the screen is yellow for dm only rolls and I can't get it to turn blue for public rolls.
