In order to send a chat message via https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference/#send-extension-chat-message you need to know the current active version of your extension. There's no way to retrieve information about your extensions' versions.

There's one way which is kind of roundabout, by first using /extensions/${CLIENT_ID}/live_activated_channels to get a list of users, then using /helix/users/extensions/list on one to find the extension again and get its version there.

This could be much quicker to find if live_activated_channels had a version field with the live extension version (it only ever returns a list of channels using the live version).

There could also be a /extensions/${CLIENT_ID}/versions endpoint which would list each version and have information about each, much like the dev dashboard Versions page.

I have embedded my Twitch channel on my website as a non-interactive iframe in my side panel.

Example:

However, there is so much text there which clutters the UI.

By having my stream title there from when I was online does not add any value. It certainly does not promote my channel.

I would much more prefer if I could just have the bare minimum there and I can show my own offline-image.

Example:

It would be nice if we had a new query parameter option for embedding channels, which could remove any promotion texts or videos / aka make it more minimalistic, to only show the Twitch button and the channel's offline image.

Just like the /helix/users/follows endpoint, I would like the /helix/subscriptions endpoint to also provide the total results in addition to the next and previous links.

Currently I have to recursively go through all the subscriber pages, 100 par 100, and add up for each one. So I make for my 12,000 subscribers not far from 120 calls which, on the one hand overloads the service and uses part of my call quota, and on the other hand take almost a whole minute to execute.

This is a certain burden for our two sides, as a "total" field would solve all our problems on this endpoint.

The endpoint /helix/subscriptions?broadcaster_id=USER_ID doesn't return the data from the most recent to the oldest subscriber.

We could maybe use /helix/subscriptions/events?broadcaster_id=ID but the data here apparently doesn't last more than 5 days or so. This doesn't work for small streamers who don't have a lot of subscribers coming on a daily basis, for example.

Suggestions:

1. Create an "order" parameter to the first endpoint, so we could use like /helix/subscriptions?broadcaster_id=USER_ID&order=desc&limit=1
2. Make the second endpoint return the latest "forever".

The first endpoint seems buggy, the data being returned comes in random order and the pagination cursor is always present, even if I clearly don't have more results or that's the last page. According to the docs, the pagination cursor should don't return anything in that case.

Even If I use the pagination cursor to fetch ALL subscribers, with 100 results per page, it wouldn't be worth doing 10 calls if a streamer has 1000+ subscribers just to get the latest, for example, this would take A LOT of time to go through all those pages.

Based on the current channel points API, a client may only access/update rewards for their own custom rewards. However, for some moderation tools, I believe managing custom rewards created by other clients and/or the Channel Owner's Dashboard would be beneficial.

Take for example a reward such as "Hydrate!", where, after 10 minutes you want this cleared from the reward queue if it hasn't been actioned already. To do this with the current API, a channel owner would have to first delete the existing "Hydrate!" reward and then recreate it using the script client. Repeating this for every reward to be controlled.

A potential way to implement this is a new Channel Points Reward dashboard called "Permissions" where channel owners can select which rewards can be controlled by which third-party clients. This dashboard would consist of a list of integrations where each integration has it's own list of rewards that it can control.

Even so, some integrations may wish to designate that they should have exclusive read/update/remove control over their own rewards (as in the current API) where they are created as "private" or "super-private" rewards. (private locks read/update/remove control, super-private would also lock enabled/disabled control)

For example:

Sound Alert can access the following rewards:
* Wowza (private)
* REEE (private)
* [Assign new reward]

Most rewards could then be added/removed to other integrations as the channel owner desires. Private rewards can still be assigned to other integrations to control their enabled state.

XYZ can access the following rewards:
* Silence Sound Alert for 10m (private)
* Twitch: Hydrate! (read/update/enable) [Edit] [Remove]
* Twitch: Name a world! (read/update/enable) [Edit] [Remove]
* Twitch: Text-to-speech (read/update/enable) [Edit] [Remove]
* Sound Alert: Wowza (enable) [Edit] [Remove]
* Sound Alert: REEE (enable) [Edit] [Remove]
* [Assign new reward]

There should be a way to at least enable/disable or pause/unpause rewards that the Client-ID used didn't create. This makes sense since if I'm a moderator I can pause/unpause events that I didn't create for the channel in question. Even if it's a separate endpoint to prevent different bots from "writing over each other" I think this would be the best possible feature to add.

Possible bias: This would make my Channel Points Rewards (Twitch CPR) Game Profile system just that much slicker. ;)

Best part; Could just be a paired-down version of the current "get" function of channel point rewards system that only takes inputs for isenabled and/or ispaused (preferably both).

Topic.

Cannot control highlight message/unlock emote rewards to enable/disable/change price or even list them etc via this API

Example usages

We might turn off emote "buying" on a Thursday as we are about to load a WHOLE new Set in for a big game on Monday. Is one thought.

But I can't automate them.

Also any number of tasks the streamer would like us (moderators/staff of the channel) to help manage but we can't if those rewards are API locked (and UI locked) out from "channel staff" being able to help manage

Additionally, I'll get asked by the streamer I work one on one with to do something with a core reward. But. I can't as the API won't allow it.
