An improved "hlsLatencyBroadcaster" value unlocks and improves interactive experiences that rely on precise synchronization. For example, the Tobii eye tracker Extension and many Genvid Extensions that rely on this latency for accurate click or display location.

The existing API endpoint for getting chatters predates User IDs and only returns usernames. It's also part of TMI and not officially documented, which could result in it being removed at any point without any notice.

Many bots use the endpoint for channel loyalty points, and then have to make secondary calls to the get the user ID.

Partners get a verified badge, it would be nice for published developers to get a badge too, maybe after a certain usage requirement of their extension, like how partners have to hit certain limits to become partner, maybe enough usages or page views of the extension will get a dev a badge.

The endpoints announced earlier today ( https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/announcing-apis-and-eventsub-for-polls-and-predictions/31539 ) should be usable by channel moderators so that third-party apps like Chatty can make use of them without the broadcaster needing to authenticate.

As noted here

https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/lifetime-subscriber-guide-for-partners?language=en_US

Lifetime Subscribers are a unique benefit for Twitch Partners. Lifetime subscriptions do not generate revenue or additional subscription points.

No where in the subscribers API is a given sub tagged as lifetime.

So whilst we can math the subscriber points from helix, we can't discount these lifetime subs from our count.

Extend the subscribers API to flag as lifetime, (or provide a seperate endpoint)
And provide a API to fetch the Sub Points without having to iterate all pages.

This Kraken endpoint provides the emotes a user has access to: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/users#get-user-emotes

A similar functionality would be nice for the new API as well. It should contain all emotes a user has access to, for example Global Emotes, Subemotes, Bit Emotes, Emotes unlocked by Channel Points and so on (the Kraken endpoint is unfortunately missing some types of emotes).

The emotes returned would be for the authenticated user, with an appropriate scope required.

So that third party developers can be notified of new unban request
And that third party developers can respond to those unban requests, the same way as you can on the moderator view

Add follow count to /helix/users endpoint. This data is accessible via /helix/users/follows, but would require an additional call.

Kraken allows you to set Game and Title.

Helix allows you to set nothing.

Aside from updating Helix to allow setting game and title, we'd like to be able to set the "Go Live Notification"

There is no API methods for deleting a Clip

Please provide a method

The new suspicious users feature should be available to third-party moderation tools.

https://safety.twitch.tv/s/safety-news/detail?language=en_US&post=Using-Machine-Learning-to-Curb-Ban-Evasion

A lot of moderators use third-party tools and it would be quite important to at least be able to see the messages/warnings. It would be even better if changing the restricted/monitoring state of a user would be possible as well.

This would be akin to the great AutoMod API, which provides mods with a PubSub topic for detailed real-time information and Helix endpoints for handling messages.

https://dashboard.twitch.tv/u/USERNAME/settings/moderation/blocked-terms

There is no API for automation of adding/removing/listing a given channels blocked-terms

When adding/removing a term modlogs display in chat as

barrycarlyon used: /addblockedterm THISISATEST.
barrycarlyon used: /deleteblockedterm THISISATEST.

But these are not valid chat commands either.

Please provide an API to CRUD channel blocked terms

We would like subs tenure in Helix in order to use this for merch extensions providing tenure-based merch options.

Create/Update doesn't provide the ability to upload/change images for a reward.

This would be useful.

Alternatively if we can't do upload initially.

Add the ability to specify a channel emote (either by coDe or ID) so the reward would "copy" the channelEmote for that channel in.

So if I create a reward for CohhCarnage I can pick a cohhEmote (but I can't pick a liriki emote)

Or specify a URL to fetch a Image from

Provide an API to get the currently playing sound from Soundtrack

This will allow chatbots and overlays to display now playing information

On a per channel basis return

• Song Name
• Song Artist
• Song Album
• Song meta data such as Soundtrack Category etc
• Song box art
• Song album box art
• Song Duration (in seconds or hh:mm:ss format/other RFC format)
• Time song started playing

Currently there's no way to get the status of a rerun stream, as /helix/streams only returns streams with the type "live" and "" (error)

Adding reruns with its type set to "rerun" would allow it to return rerun streams as well.

It's a problem that you can't get the status of a rerun stream because you then have no other choice than to treat it as offline, which means you e.g. may initiate a host, which will interfere with the stream.
