  1. Having written one and a half client libraries for IRC now, I wish Twitch Chat was exposed over a more consistent protocol.

    • Allow read-only access to chat messages (and other related live data and events) via PubSub, with clean re-designed JSON Chat message payloads
    • No longer identify channels and users by their login name, use user IDs for all purposes
    • Send messages via an API call

    Most importantly, I would expect a redesigned API to think of edge-cases in a better way than IRC currently does. For example, what happens on IRC if a channel gets suspended, or a channel…

  2. Some extension depend on user interaction in a timely manner.

    I'll use our fantasy Fight LIVE as an example. Here viewers can challenge other viewers for a duel. When this happens, the "other" (challenged) viewer gets a short hint "You have been challenged by XY" and two buttons: Accept and Decline.

    Now, as an Overlay Extension this works perfectly well.
    In a Component Extension the experience is very different. Usually a component is "closed" - That means the viewer can not see what's going on. We have no chance to notify the user that something is happening.

    It would be…

  3. channel information endpoint provides "gameid", "gamename" and "title" for live streams, but it doesn't return the stream uptime as displayed below a live stream; would be useful to acquire this via API.

  5. 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…

  7. It appears that the Glitch file has been changed! I couldn't get the !dice command to work, until i figured that the command had been changed to !d20 along with the number of sides changed to 20. Or maybe this was a ploy.... to help me understand coding better... Thanks!

  8. When a caster leaves a review.

    Currently we can only get these reviews manually via the console.

    Please provide, one or more of:

    • An API, to collect the spreadsheets like existing ext analytics
    • An API, to collect the reviews,
    • A webhook to collect reviews into our own system(s) in real time

  9. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference/#send-extension-pubsub-message

    The docs say Valid values: "broadcast", "global".

    But, the target 'whisper-opaqueId' to send "per user" pusub message is missing.

  11. In a similar fashion to

    https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/39910141-copy-subscription-support-for-channel-moderation-s

    it would be beneficial to include ban status in the extension JS helper. To save an Frontend->EBS->API round trip to obtain this data.

    It would be a boolean unlike substatus which is null/object

    Optionally useful to provide data if a active timeout is in place.

    A "onBan" callback might be useful (which would only listen to to that users ban status change(s)

  13. I have a system that checks what scene the creator is in, to see if that custom reward is allowed (we do scene whitelisting). A planned feature is to disable and enable custom rewards based on the scene, so that the end users (the viewers) only ever see custom rewards that will actually work.

    It would be very helpful if I could batch my update calls so that I could set several rewards as disabled/enabled at once. Without this ability its very likely I'd hit a rate limit.

  14. would love a follow button that works like Twitter Follow/Tweet button. To avoid the need to oAuth-loop it and users would prefer that rather than granting access to their account for developers to throw a follow at any channel.

  15. https://imgur.com/a/kBcNDeh

    The use of bullet points reads and the "and" tacked onto the end of the first bullet point makes it unclear

    The wording should be revised so it's more obvious that "onTransactionComplete" is to be sent to instances where the userID matches the userID that initiated.

    Since the first bullet point is superflous, since the userID of the first bullet point is also matched by the second bullet point.

  16. Allow to request clips/videos on multiple required query paramters (broadcasterid & gameid).

  17. As it stands currently today, whether you are building a large scale bot to connect to multiple channels, that is always on (think Streamlabs, StreamElements, etc), or a small bot specific for your channel, or perhaps somewhere in between, the only supported way to connect is via the channel name, which is tied directly to the Twitch username.

    The problem that is faced is when one of those connected channel's broadcaster decide to change their username, thus changing the channel name as well, since now what the bot is listening for data on is non-existent. The way this is managed…

  18. It'll be helpful and also maintain a straight UI to have a Twitch React UI Framework, so we can include it on our extensions.

    For example Uber has https://baseweb.design/ so you can develop websites with (almost) the same UI as Uber.

  19. The twitch apps games screen is pretty limited. Many have over 100 games on there by now. So I would like to be able to build my own web app and let users log in via twitch and browse their claimed games collection where I can provide filters and search for games using whatever data is available about the games. To do this there must of course be an API where I can retrieve the game list and meta data about them.
