Get Custom Rewards doesn't say which Rewards were created by the calling ClientID There should be a field to indicate the owner "clientID" or a "mine: true/false" to represent if the rewards returned by "Get Custom Rewards" belong to the calling clientID or not.
OR
add an optional query string parameter
| name | required | type | description
| -------------------------------------------------------
| mine | no | boolean | if true only return rewards created by this developer/ClientID3 votesonly_manageable_rewards field was added to GET Custom Rewards endpoint. When set to true, only returns custom rewards that the calling client_id can manage. Defaults false.

Add Helix endpoint to get Channel Teams The "GET /kraken/channels/<channel ID>/teams" endpoint is currently missing in the Helix API.
I propose to either
a) add the teams to the "GET /helix/channels" output, or to
b) add new team endpoints to Helix altogether. (Teams need some love!)5 votesEarlier this year, we added Get Channel Teams and Get Teams to Helix.

Allow a Reward to be created as disabled As a developer, i want to be able to create a reward in the
disabledstate.This is currently not possible upon creation, as the
is_enabledparameter is ignored. The documentation currently reflects this correctly.Thus, this currently requires the reward to be created and then a
PATCHrequest to be made right afterwards, updating the just-created reward.Allowing this would, for example, allow "secret" rewards to be created before being "released to the public" or allowing the Broadcaster to utilize the dashboard management page to choose between a set of pre-created rewards.

API to CRUD the new/upcoming schedule Please provide an API for the new upcoming Twitch features (preferrably day 1 would be nice)
Today, I'm here again to ask for an API.

Bring "Get Followed Streams" endpoint to Helix With the actual Helix API, there are two ways to retrieve the authenticated user's followed streams:
First, get user follows (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-users-follows) and then get all active streams details, by specifying each user_id individually. If the user is following 300 users, this would require at least 6 requests (eventually one more to get the autenticated user's id). This method is quite inefficient compared to the v5 endpoint.
The second way is to use the "Stream Changed" webhook (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/webhooks-reference#topic-stream-changed). Again, I should first retrieve all user follows (3 requests for 300 follows), and then subscribe to 300 webhooks…

Fulfill or Reject Channel Points Redemptions Programmatically Channel points have the ability to reward loyal viewers with real-time influence on the stream. Sometimes such requests may be filtered, which should trigger a rejection (therefore refund).
Right now the only way to do this programmatically would be to use unsupported GQL APIs and risk the wrath of Twitch, or wrap the rewards queue in some way. This is the only blocker (technically speaking) for the workflow, as PubSub does expose enough information to respond to the redemptions automatically.
I've had a proof of concept on my stream which gets redemptions via PubSub, filters the submission for offensive content…

Channel Points API multiple suggestions/requests A great many Ideas/notes and stuff from the Developer discord was collected and thrown into a Google Docs
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dxx04pp6VVqY9s9JRcVP3w9keBHrRR5LB3Q043McS1Q/edit?usp=sharing
Covers
- CRUD store items
- Fetching/updating points values
- handling store redepmtions
- Stuff about webhooks
- Stuff about points in extensions (see also https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/38874571-channel-point-transaction-in-extension )Throwing it here so it's here as well as already sent to Twitch via Dev Advocacy
102 votesAs announced at last week’s Developer Day, we now have set of Channel Points endpoints and EventSub subscription types. This initial release may address much of the feedback captured here, if you still have features you would like so see, please feel free to file more UserVoice ideas under the “API” category.

Add v5 "Get Followed Streams" endpoint to Helix The Helix API currently has no way of retrieving a particular users online channels they are following. This is done by the "Get Followed Streams" API in v5 (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/streams#get-followed-streams)
To get the same behavior in the current Helix endpoints would require TENS of requests each time you wanted to check for the presence of a channel coming online/going offline, instead of the nice single endpoint v5 offers.
I've requested this endpoint for a few years now and was told v5 and Helix will have parity before v5 is officially shutdown, so I hope that's still the case.

Start Channel Commercial (Helix) Helix is currently missing the Kraken endpoint /kraken/channels/<channel ID>/commercial
Running a commercial through the API is e.g. very useful for broadcasters who want to assign that responsibility to someone else.

Get Channel Editors Getting the list of a channel's editors for e.g. importing, and verifying editor status is something that is missing from Helix.
Kraken had this in /kraken/channels/<channel ID>/editors and it was very useful.
The ability to verify your Twitch editor status is necessary to properly interact with Twitch's editor features.

OAuth Connection Revocation Event/WebHook I would like to be able to react to a user disconnecting my application from their account without having to constantly poll with the user's token to ensure that it is still valid. If I were to constantly poll for all users that have used FrankerFaceZ's website, I would be making thousands of requests per minute. My servers don't need the unnecessary load. Your servers don't. There is a better way.
For this I request implementation of a revocation webhook, similar to those used by GitHub (ref1), Facebook (ref2), Slack (ref3), Discord (ref4), etc.
To clarify, I don't want a…
