   Planned  ·  Adminecressey (Admin, Twitch) responded

   We plan to support pinned messages in the Twitch API and EventSub.

2. Include Tags on channel.update

   This would allow things to happen if only a certain tag is set.
   That of course would require channel.update to fire for tags being edited as well

   Example: If a streamer wants to have an automated tweet sent out when they start a Giveaway, they could add the tag "Giveaway", which triggers channel.update and then the receiver can process and send a tweet on their behalf.

4. Revise the `channel.subscription` topics

   Request

   Organize channel.subscription topics to allow for alert like notifications to properly be provided. What displays in chat should be able to be mimicked via EventSub topics without having active tracking or additional api calls; Provide missing data where needed; Create new topics to fill in the gaps.

   ---

   Current Scenarios

   Brand New Subscriber: If a user subscribes for the first time in the channel, we get an alert as soon as they sub. This is incidental that it works properly for stream based alerts, as we are actually receiving the payment transaction rather than the in chat event.

   Prime Gaming Resubscriber: If someone resubscribes with Prime Gaming, we get not only the channel.subscription.message when they decide to share the message in chat, but also the channel.subscribe event as they are technically a NEW subscriber when they first click the button to resubscribe. As it was explained to me, this is because the subscription lapses usually before they are able to share the renew event in chat. So we get the event for subscription start, as well as the message event when they do decide to share it. Without active tracking up to days before the event looking for channel.subscription.end there is no way to properly react to the subscription alerts in a stateless manner.

   User Gifts a Sub: We receive a channel.subscription.gift event which is expected, but have no way to link to who gave which sub nor which channel.subscription.gift event was its pair. Explained more thoroughly here: https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/43813413-provide-a-gift-event-id-in-the-channel-subscribe

   User updates/upgrades their subscription: Currently in the case of PubSub no notification is sent for someone continuing their subscription from a gift or at times changing their tier to higher/lower. Data inconclusive of what happens in EventSub. https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/42454273-subscriber-upgrades

   User resubscribes automatically, but never shares: It is perfectly fine for a user to not share their resubscription event in chat as often times it is automatic when they do renew; however, for metrics such as goals or otherwise this data is crucial for accurate tracking. Explained more by Barry: https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/42008110-please-provide-an-event-sub-that-emits-resub-paym

   Important Notes

   The events should be "stateless", meaning that active tracking of subs that expire should not be needed to ensure correct event usage. Otherwise, this requires a server like runtime which defeats the future "transport agnostic" approach and would require a server. Chat like notifications should be able to be built from eventsub without long term tracking, or other API calls; such as listening for subs, cheers, point redeems etc. Out of this list of proposals below, the only events that are intended to be used in an alert/stateless like environment are channel.subscription.message, channel.subscription.gift, and channel.subscription.update. While the others can be used, the data would not be as transparent as to where it came from as it isn't provided in chat which may confuse viewers if used in that fashion.

   ---

   Proposal

   channel.subscribe Changes

   • channel.subscribe would become channel.subscription.begin (or.start) to fall inline with other EventSub topics as well as to give a more granular expression of what it reacts to.
   • Subscriptions starting up, that either are new or have lapsed in the channel, would be signaled here. In theory this would present no change to the current implementation, but should be documented that this should be used for metrics rather than alerts.
   • duration_months for multi month subs could be useful here to determine if a "long" term sub ended.
   • Gifter info to provide better metric data (more than just is_gift), would allow better understanding of retention.

   channel.subscription.message Changes

   • channel.subscription.message provide a mimicked data stream of what would appear in chat, meaning re-subscriptions or new subscriptions. The documentation would be also need to be changed to reflect this.
   • New Subscriptions
     • A "default" message object would be provided, meaning that the message.text would be an empty string (not null) and the message.emote array would be an Array.empty
     • cumulative_months as well as streak_months would be 0.
   • Gifting info would also be needed
     • is_gift:boolean - Indicates if the subscription was a gift. Default: false
     • is_anonmyous:boolean - Indicates if the gifter was anonymous. Default: false
     • gifter_user_id:string - User id of the gifter. Default: string.empty
     • gifter_user_login:string - User login of the gifter. Default: string.empty
     • gifter_user_name:string - User name of the gifter. Default: string.empty
     • gift_subscription_id:string/Guid - Id associated with the channel.subscription.gift event. Default: string.empty

   channel.subcription.end | Changes

   • channel.subscription.end is for expiring subscriptions. This in theory should provide no change per se in use, but data such as what was documented in the "channel.subscription.begin changes" would be beneficial here as well.

   channel.subscription.gift | Changes

   • When referencing the change mentioned earlier providing the gift info, there was mention of a gift_subscription_id. This id would either be the event id or a new field in the channel.subscription.gift event called gift_id. Ideally a new field should not be needed as the id should be the event itself, but it depends on the infrastructure packing this together. Also explained in https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/43813413-provide-a-gift-event-id-in-the-channel-subscribe

   channel.subscription.update | New Topic

   • New topic for subscription changes such as tiers or gift continuations who don't drop from a previous tenure. https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/42454273-subscriber-upgrades
     

   channel.subscription.progress | New Topic

   • New topic for subscription tenure metrics. This is mentioned in Barry's User Voice (link provided) which would be useful for metrics along side channel.subscription.begin and channel.subscription.end for users who don't share their resub in chat. https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/42008110-please-provide-an-event-sub-that-emits-resub-paym

   channel.subscription.{all}

   • Transaction method to allow understanding how a sub was acquired and react appropriately. In the past Prime was utilized as a tier of sub in places such as PubSub, but this has been pointed out to not necessarily be the case. is_prime is too rigid and ignores other acquisitions such as iOS tokens. Instead a data point of transcation_type may be more idealistic. https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/42012043-add-is-prime-to-subscription-events

5. EventSub for added/removed moderator status, but for self

   EventSub exists for channels adding/removing moderator status to a user. I'd like the other way around. I'd like to receive an EventSub notification if I have been added/removed as a moderator.

   Why:
   In order to receive a notification whether my bot has been added/removed as a moderator in a channel, I have to subscribe to every streamer I support on channel.moderator.(add|remove), with the condition of broadcaster_user_id = streamer ID. If I could set a condition of user_id = my bot ID, I would only need ONE eventsub subscription each for add and remove, instead of 75000+ each. Win-win for both Twitch and me.

7. Extend the Channel Ban to include deleted messages

   Currently Channel Ban will report the moderation events of a time or ban, but it doesn't report/include information about deleted messages.

   This would fit on this topic but could also have it's own topic.

10. VIP add/remove event

    Adding new subscription types for the VIP add and remove event (Like existing add and remove moderator events)

    It would be great to be able to create an interaction in stream when the streamer (Or a moderator or any other automated system thanks to the API) adds a VIP.

11. Provide Cheermote and Emotes information for EventSub Cheer Events

    When viewers cheer, they use cheermotes and commonly emotes in their cheer messages. Unfortunately, the payload received from EventSub's channel.cheer callbacks only have the raw text as entered by the user, with no indiciation of which portions of that text are cheermotes nor emotes. Thus, I propose the following update to the callback payload, similar to the channel.subscription.message event, that passes along the data for both so that a consumer of EventSub can reconstruct the message:

    {
        "subscription": {
            ...
        },
        "event": {
            ...
            "message": {
                "text": "Rah Rah Cheer! cheerwhal1 Cheer100 notACheer101 finite6ThrowBall",
                "cheermotes": [
                    {
                        "begin": 16,
                        "end": 26,
                        "prefix": "cheerwhal"
                        "id": "1"
                    },
                    {
                        "begin": 27,
                        "end": 34,
                        "prefix": "Cheer"
                        "id": "100"
                    }
                ],
                "emotes": [
                    {
                        "begin": 48,
                        "end": 64,
                        "id": "emotesv2_4133039724974aa59589549eae677d03"
                    }
                ]
            },
            ...

12. Provide emote information for EventSub Channel Point Redemption Events

    Emotes are a commonly used feature of Channel Point Redemptions requiring messages. Unlike the EventSub Subscription Message events which provide emote ID and placement data, Channel Point Redemption events do not. I propose the following change to the Point Redemption notification payload:

    channel.channel_points_custom_reward_redemption.add and channel.channel_points_custom_reward_redemption.update:

    {
        "subscription": {
            ...
        },
        "event": {
            ...
            "user_input": {
                "text": "Channel Point Message! finite6ThrowBall",
                "emotes": [
                    {
                        "begin": 24,
                        "end": 40,
                        "id": "emotesv2_4133039724974aa59589549eae677d03"
                    }
                ]
            },
            ...
        }
    }
    

    This allows for a client to properly construct the channel point redemption input, with emote images, similar to the channel.subscription.message event.

13. Allow getting realtime updates on polls/predictions/channel points redemptions through websockets for all users

    If would be very useful for chat clients or chat overlays to be able to show live updates on these features. Currently they are only available for the broadcaster (redemptions) or not at all through websockets (polls/predictions).

    Ideally this would be available for all users to receive, just like chat is (which allows more simple integration into all kinds of tools), but even just mods using third-party moderation tools would already benefit greatly from this.

    I included all three of those features, since they all seem to follow the same idea of only allowing the broadcaster access to that information which is otherwise publicly available in chat. If you want me to separate the features into different posts I'd be happy to do it.

14. EventSub Subscription Type: Advertisement Started

    I think an EventSub subscription type that would be really useful is one that alerts when an advertisement begins from the user's scheduled Ad Manager. This would allow bots the ability to post a message to users about the ad and remind them about subscribing and such when the ad begins.

18. add a channel.unfollow subscription type

    For when a user unfollows a channel.
    Will be useful when a streamer wants to provide some perks for followers but be able to revoke them when they unfollow. Currently you'll have to fetch the followers list periodically to find out if someone unfollows.

19. Please provide an event sub that emits "resub payments"

    Subscribe topic only broadcasts "new subscriptions"

    So when a subscription "expires" we don't get a "payment notification" for a Resub

    This is NOT a eventsub for the "chat notification" see https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/42008104-please-provide-an-event-sub-that-emits-sub-notifi for that

    Long-Term Consideration  ·  AdminJon Bulava (Developer Advocate Lead, Twitch) responded

    Changing status to long-term. To preserve ecressey's previous comment, "I'm not clear on the use case for this. It seems like with a resub chat message notification and subscribe/unsubscribe events you should have the data you need."

20. Add Delete Subscriptions by Broadcaster ID

    Add a broadcaster ID to the https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#delete-eventsub-subscription endpoint so we can do a simple API call when we get a user authorization revoke to be able to clean up all eventsub subscriptions for that broadcaster.
