  1. Ever since the embed updates back in 2020, the mobile embed experience has been sub-par. The suggested way to embed on iOS was to embed on your website, then load the website in a web view in your app. This was so that we could pass along the parent parameter. However it results in a number of issues that I'd like to suggest solutions for.

    First, the issues:

    1. The UI of the player is unusable. If you load your own website embed, then it is far too small to use. If you simply load the pop out player's URL, then…

  2. Twitch's UI allows you to add terms that have only a single character to them. This is good because it allows us to block some characters that are usually used on ascii copy pastes (like "⣿", for example).

    Unfortunately, the API imposes a limit of a minimum of 2 characters per blocked term, as seen on the docs:

    "The word or phrase to block from being used in the broadcaster’s chat room. The term must contain a minimum of 2 characters and may contain up to a maximum of 500 characters."

    This creates a weird behaviour where users can add…

  4. In order to give the end user more control, applications may be developed to have dynamic scopes, which currently is on the third-party developer's side to manage, such as providing a list of checkboxes to determine which permissions to grant.
    I suggest adding a parameter to <id.twitch.tv/oauth2/authorize> to turn the listed permissions into checkboxes, and only the checked permissions returned in the scope list that accompanies the resulting token. This will make the user's interaction with the permissions feel more seamless, as well as prevent "backouts" when the user is presented with a list of access permissions they can't "un-choose".

  7. According to the recently updated documentation (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference/#modify-channel-information ):

    To remove all tags from the channel, set tags to an empty array.

    However that does not work at all, as the API returns:

    {"error":"Bad Request","status":400,"message":"The request must update at least one channel property field."}

    When receiving the following payload:

    {"tags": []}

    If you send the following the title gets updated and the tags remain untouched:

    {"title": "Test ing the API", "tags": []}

  8. Similar to the Bits Leaderboard, please add a gifted subs leaderboard API, so we can see everyone who has gifted a sub in the channel.
    So People can show in their overlay who is the top sub gifter (or the top sub gifters). This will make people see that when gifting subs they will show up in the stream and that streamers appreciate them.
    Consequently there will be more people subscribe logically to be appreciated and that would make them and others gift more subs to the streamers.

    (I saw there was a request / an idea for that too…

  10. 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.

  12. Why is there not currently an api that allows for regular developers to access the current upcoming/active drops?

    There are a couple of usecases for this (off the top of my head), for example;
    - displaying all active drops for specific games on a website like a fandom.
    - announcing upcoming drops via a discord bot.

    Currently some games are creating drop campaigns with no official notices or schedules and with a short turn around. Drops go live within 2-3 hours of creation and last 2-3hours, if you're not sitting refreshing the drops page every hour you're likely to miss…

  13. Many channels I watch regularly communicate at least in two languages, and therefore send out chatbot messages in multiple languages as a long message.

    For example, "Follow my Instagram at ig.com/username // Folgt meinem Instagram at ig.com/username".

    It would be great if there was the option for chat messages sent via API to provide a default message with translations. Users would see bot messages in their native language or the broadcaster's selected language if no matching translation was provided. This could be extended for other functions, such as shoutouts.

  14. The clip response already include both id and name -fields for some data -- broadcaster_id/broadcaster_name and creator_id/creator_name.

    It would be helpful if the same was true for game_id and video_id, so we wouldn't have to resolve these by making additional requests.

    game_name: the title of the game being played.
    video_name: the title of the video (stream) that the clip came from.

  15. The API for "Get Donations" currently only supports being able to get the donations of the currently running goal.

    It is a common use case for when an eventsub charity.stop occurs that you would then go to the API can fetch the donations incompleteness for that charity drive.

    And since it stopped the API will not return anything.

    Please extend Get Charity Donations to support a campaign_id parameter.
    This may required "Get Charity Campaign" to be extended to return recently closed Campaigns. This is similar to how Hype Trains API's work where the Get Hype Trains API will return recent…

  16. This superseeds https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/45445489-please-provide-an-api-to-manage-donations

    which covers kitchen sink

    Please provide an API that allows authorised parties to increase/modify the goal on the channel.

    The primary reason for this is to allow a moderator to update the goal whilst the streamer is busy streaming/reading donations/playing the game.

    This could also be used for tiered targetting/target goals in an automated fashion "hey chat we met goal one of 100 dollars, lets get to goal two of 1000 dollars" and the control bot can auto update the goal when the first goal is met

  17. I have a Discord bot that can read audio from participants and individually transcribe their speech to text and display it on the stream. I have another Discord bot that can synthesize Twitch chat messages (TTS) and send the utterance to voice channel participants. Would like to be able to do the same through Guest Star, especially since Guest Star has alledgedly better audio quality.

    Thank you!

  20. 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…
