  1. We really need a way to determine what overlays display to the user so we can handle them gracefully. For example, we have no way of knowing when the mature overlay displays and this negatively affects our channel discovery UX.

  2. Old Twitch v5 API has an endpoint called "Get Top Clips" (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/clips#get-top-clips)

    I think the new API should also include this endpoint because the current way of getting the top clips is not exactly the most user friendly one. Currently if you want to get top clips, you need to get all clips using the "Get Clips" endpoint and then sort them out manually on our side. This works if you know exactly what you want. For example if you want top clips for a game you can use the game parameter.

    Unfortunately this isn't the most optimal…

  3. Specifically talking about:
    - Get Channel Information: helix/channels
    - Search Channel: helix/search/channels
    - Get Users: helix/users

    Those endpoints all return data concerning a specific channel, but all of the JSON responses are different and no single endpoint contains all the data you need.

    Say I have a user id and want to get the profile picture of that channel, whether it is live and the title of the broadcast.

    For the profile picture I have to hit the 'Get Users' endpoint.
    For the 'isLive' info I need to hit the 'Search Channels' endpoint, and then find the correct user from…

  5. parent only works for webservers. not everyone wants or needs to run a webserver to embed videos on a localhost page using file:/// this change benefits no users at all. it may help with 3rd party sites, but file:/// is NEVER a 3rd party but is now blocked from being used due to the parent requirement. this is affecting moderation bots and other tools people use on their local computer that isn't served from a webserver.

  8. Currently, supporting small streamers is costly, requiring pagination through large streamers. Grant Streams api functionality already present in internal gql api:

    options: {..., sort: VIEWER_COUNT_ASC,…}

  10. Hi,

    I'm a game developer/publisher and I would really like to be able to get a notification (email and/or in-browser) when someone plays one of my game(s)!

    Currently it's possible to follow a game but you don't get any notification when someone streams it.

    If possible, I would like this implemented directly from the web GUI.

    NB : I would also love this feature as a regular user, there are several niche games I would really like to get notified when someone streams them…

  11. Currently you can subscribe to a webhook to receive a handful of types of events. The only way to see when a stream goes live is to subscribe to a topic for that particular user. It would be incredibly useful to specify a category and receive a webhook whenever a stream goes live in that category.

  12. With the new helix API there is no possibility to retrieve user logo and banner information.
    In V5 API this information could be retrieved with this call:

    GET https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/<channel ID>

    Will it also be implemented in helix?

  13. In the case of a trivia extension, where questions appear periodically and the viewer will answer them live and then wait for the next one, the viewer will likely switch back to chat between questions. It would be nice if there were a way to let the viewer know that the extension has a new unanswered trivia question available.

    This could be as simple as a red dot badge on the extension icon.

    Optionally a viewer could opt-in to notifications first.

    Optionally have the ability to force focus on the extension. Would be useful for time-sensitive things.

  14. for /helix/streams can we add:
    profileimageurl from /helix/users
    and the game name (and potentially boxarturl) from /helix/games

    This is very basic info related to the stream and would be really nice to have available in a single call rather than 3 separate calls. This is especially important with bots that are trying to get the status of many streams in a short period quickly racking up api calls

  15. As per a request from Barry, it would helpful if any flagged messages on a page were fixed or visible when loading a bookmarked section. For example, right now there is an important message on the API reference page about OAuth requirements for Helix, but if someone goes directly to https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-streams, they will not see this message currently.

  17. When an Extension goes through constant improvement cycles the Extension versions start to pile up on the developer dashboard. There doesn't appear to be a particular order in which the versions are displayed so it becomes a tedious task to find the latest one just by looking through the small semver text on the thumbnail.

  18. To give more freedom in using Bits, having a Bits escrow system would be great.
    RFC0011 ( https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/rfc-0011-extension-entitlement-service/19142 ) introduced that idea but was never implemented.

    What would be the possible flows:
    - A viewer sends Bits, that are put "on hold"
    - The streamer cancels the action asked by the viewers (because the stream is ending for example)
    - After some delay, the Bits are refunded to the viewer because the transaction was not validated.

    -- Viewers send Bits, that are put "on hold"
    - The streamer cancels the action asked by the viewers (because the stream is ending…

  20. If an extension is updated, there generally isn't a good way to tell streamers about it.

    It would be useful if an extension can push a notification to the bell/notification list, like how drops work/notify.

    And/or find a way to present an update notification to the main Twitch dashboard.
