Modify Channel Information says "Query parameters" example post says JSON blob
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#modify-channel-information

Change description of broadcaster_id in create clip
The description of the broadcaster_id inside of the Create Clip endpoint is very confusing because it states that this is the id of the stream but it really is the id of the broadcaster as the name suggests.

"You need only the "refresh token" and "client secret"

Helper: viewer is misleading as the viewer object is populated on all views not just the channel page
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#helper-viewer
The Twitch.ext.viewer object is a collection of info about the twitch viewer that is watching the channel page where your extension is activated. It will only be populated if the viewer is logged in, and only after the `onAuthorized` callback has been called. Accessing its properties will otherwise return `null`.Should be

Get Broadcaster Subscriptions docs example incomplete
The Get Broadcast Subscriptions docs https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-broadcaster-subscriptions was updated to include gifterid and giftername fields, but neither of these were added to the example.
Also, the example is erroneous because it shows the same user id for both broadcaster and subscriber, but they represent different usernames, which is impossible.

Document error responses
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/getting-tokens-oauth#oauth-client-credentials-flow
There's no information about error response and it doesn't seem to be fully compatible with RFC 6749 which means I can't find info about possible errors easily.

Extension popout "by default"
From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/72
Brief description
By default, pop-out control is enabled for panel Extensions and for extension “live configuration views” (see the Live Config Path setting on the Asset Hosting tab in the Extensions manager).
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/required-technical-background
The documentation suggests that extension developers can disable pop-outs. Which is not the case

The documentation for creating signing JWT's don't explicitly state that
user_id/channel_idin JWT's need to be an explicit string literalhttps://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/building/#signing-the-jwt
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#send-extension-pubsub-messageExpected documentation
Where: exp is the Unix epoch timestamp when the payload will expire. Be sure to provide a buffer, to allow potential positive time drift. user_id is the Twitch user ID that owns the extension, where the user ID is cast as a string literal. role is set to external.3 votes -

Information about config service unclear
From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/55
Brief description
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/building#using-the-configuration-service
Doesn't mention the key bit of information regarding the size limit of 5kb
Additional context or questions
It's important to note here as people will start designing an extension and then discover the sizing limit late into construction of an extension. For clarity the limit should be noted here also

Followed list to indicate subscription
In your list of followed streamers, you can see which ones you have a gift subscription to. It would be great to see which channels you subscribe to in this list as well.

Add additional examples.
Add examples of popular 3rd party libraries.
The current example is very specific and only targets one language. Many community driven libraries are continuously developing and mainting IRC capablities in languages such as; Python, JS/TS, C# and more.
It would be nice in general to see more support for these libraries and even giving some sort of verfication to popular libraries that are maintained and meet quality standards.

Fix AutoMod status doc - example curl request
The example curl request here:
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#check-automod-status
Doesn't work.1) It needs a broadcasterid query param
2) It needs the content-type header (application/json)
3) I get a 500 error using the provided "userid"s in the post body, using other user_ids worksI spent more time than I care to admit figuring this out, so it seems like fixing this will probably hep somebody out in the future.
If these three things are fixed the call succeeds.
