Question / Help 2 streaming services at once from one OBS instance?

Hello all,

In OBS settings->stream, where the various streaming services are listed and a stream key can be entered, is it possible to have more than one service (and associated key) selected here, so that OBS would simultaneously stream to more than one service? If this is already asked and answered somewhere please just point me to the posting. Thank you!

Details:

I've had one streaming service set up and running for a couple of months. I've spotted a second one on the list of services I would like to also stream to. I've discovered that I can open a second instance of OBS for the second streaming service and it seems to work from the same webcam video source, but would be nice (and probably more CPU/GPU efficient) if the one OBS instance could just stream to multiple services.

I've searched and I don't see a way to do it right now. The settings->stream GUI seems pretty fixed at just one streaming service.

Windows 10 with all the latest updates. Quadro P4200 NVIDIA chip and an Intel i9-8950HK chip, 2.9 GHz (Dell 7730 laptop).

Easiest way I can think of doing this is running an nginx-rtmp server, having OBS stream to that server, and then that server pushes to both services.
