  1. I recently noticed that the videoid and vodoffset of the clip data are lost when a channel's VOD is changed to private.

    The lost information does not come back even if the private video is changed to the public status again.

    This is a problem because Twitch recently switched the default VOD set to private due to copyright issues.

    My suggestion is to make the videoid and vodoffset visible again when the private VOD is made public.

    thank.

  3. As a developer creating statistics tools, chat bots, overlays and loyality tools, i also would like to add bits spent to those tools, which were obtained through extensions, for example Sound Alerts or Stream Stickers.

    I would suggest adding a new field "isextensionbits" being true or false in the notification body (or, as an alternative, have a seperate notification type to not confuse existing apps, like channel.cheer.extension)

  4. 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

  5. The v5 endpoint contains the follower's account creation date, the new endpoint (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-users-follows) does not.

    Knowing when a follower created their account is very useful to moderators monitoring recent follows to keep an eye on potentially problematic users (new account could mean a previously banned user returning) or to detect mass follows from bots (which often have a similar account creation date). Monitoring recent follows is especially useful in follow-only chat mode.

    While it is possible to get the account creation date from the "Get Users" endpoint (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-users) and then merge it with the follower data,…

    Please expose the streamer selected modifications/preference in the API and EventSub payloads.

  7. The get-videos API (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-videos) takes either a video id, user_id, or game_id, but does not take a stream_id, so if you want to find the VOD from a stream ID you captured while the stream was live, you have to search back through a user's videos and match them up, which is not super efficient, especially if the stream is old. Could you add stream_id as a possible query parameter please?

    Thanks,
    Chris

  8. I would like to request that the booleans phoneverified and emailverified be added to the Get Users API.

    email_verified was already a part of the v5 Get User endpoint.

    The reason for this is because I would like to create an app that uses the Twitch API that would only allow access to users that have a verified phone number, to prevent/reduce spam from malicious users.

  9. "The v5 endpoint searched for the channel title and category. Use “Search Channels” to match channel name or title." on https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/migration is wrong because the new API does not matches the title! There is no replacement for title searching!

  10. Currently the rate limit headers "ratelimit-reset", "ratelimit-remaining" and "ratelimit-limit" are not accessible on browser / cors requests due to browser restrictions.
    I request that Twitch adds the "Access-Control-Expose-Headers" header on the helix endpoints so that tools running in a browser can follow the rate limits without guessing if they are still within the limits or having to watch for 429 HTTP codes.

  11. 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.

  12. The new endpoint only allows the broadcaster to run commercials: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#start-commercial

    The old endpoint also allowed users with the editor role to run commercials: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/channels#start-channel-commercial

    I believe it is of value to allow access to editors as they used to. Editors should be trusted enough to choose their own tools to support the broadcaster, as has already been the case.

    Plus, if an editor's token can be used the editor's name will appear in the Activity Log on the Dashboard, rather than the broadcaster's name (assuming some sort of webpanel or bot has to be used, that the broadcaster has…

  15. With the unfortunate, but expected, end to Enhanced Experiences that opened the door to event based drops I think that there are ways that Event Based Drops could be implemented without the complexity that was E2.

    In E2, Event Based Drops required the game to send metadata to Twitch, either directly from the client or from the game developers. Then a check would be made to see if a condition was met that would award a Drop. This meant that Twitch had to keep track of the metadata for every single channel and have more complicated Drops Campaigns for settings…

  18. Adding the /monitor command would be a great addition, I mod for a channel that has a group of user doxing the streamer with their username/display name and banning everyone having their name matching the vague doxing param is not a possibility

  19. It would be nice if the response included the channel name and user's name so we don't have to call the API to convert the IDs to usernames :)

  20. Extend the Videos API via a "metadata" endpoint, that provides additional data about the video.

    Including but not limited to

    • Category changes during the video
    • Offsets are relative to the source video that the video is from. So for a highlight it would report the video it was cut from and include where in the origin file the highlight is cut from.

    For Example: https://api.twitch.tv/helix/videos/metadata?id=1234
    Metadata would support up to 100 (or 50) id's at once like Get Videos

    Returns examples

    A video of type archive
    {
    "data": [
    {
    "id": "1234",
    "duration": 18000,
    "chapters": [
    {
    "offset": 0,
    "game…
