  1. I received an error I have never seen before and it got me thinking it would be nice to have some documentation on various error messages like "Insufficient authorization in token". Other errors are clear and straight forwards like "missing X scope" however some are vague and unclear.

  2. I have embedded my Twitch channel on my website as a non-interactive iframe in my side panel.

    Example:
    https://imgur.com/a/v1wc8ri

    However, there is so much text there which clutters the UI.

    By having my stream title there from when I was online does not add any value. It certainly does not promote my channel.

    I would much more prefer if I could just have the bare minimum there and I can show my own offline-image.

    Example:
    https://imgur.com/a/v1wc8ri

    It would be nice if we had a new query parameter option for embedding channels, which could remove any promotion texts or videos /…

  3. The hub.secret property needs far more explaining of how the secret is generated:

    "The X-Hub-Signature header is generated by sha256(secret, notification_bytes)"

    It should say something along the lines of

    "The X-Hub-Signature header is generated by using HMAC sha256 with the provided secret being the one specified in hub.secret: hmac(sha256, hubsecret).hash(notificationbody)"

  4. Similar to

    https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/38375011-mature-flag-on-get-streams-endpoint

    But for the Get Channel information endpoint

    We should also be able to modify the flag via the Set Channel Information endpoint

  5. Allow filtering the event sub subscriptions list by specific transport destinations

    Some people may use a clientID to feed more than one application.
    So being able to ask the API to filter by destination would be useful.

  8. Please provide an API and/or webhook/event sub

    That provides information about if a VOD/clip/other content is muted

    We will need the start/end time slots for each muting on the content

  10. Summary:
    Filling in the holes of what chat provides and EventSub provides would be appreciated. In this case hosts, raids, and potentially front page promo attributions. There isn't much reason to have multiple unique events in this case as all of the aforementioned events are the same, a provider of a redirect (user), a recipient (broadcaster), and an attribution amount (viewers attributed to the event). The only specifier needed is a type or context. However, different events wouldn't be necessarily rejected in concept, it would just seem unnecessary. Since a condition is sent for the subscription to the event, one…

  11. Summary:
    From first glance, it would seem that the progress of each channel.hype_train.progress is determined by the contribution; however, there seems to be no way to determine from the single progress event payload to determine by how much it changed. There is a 'total' amount provided by the last_contribution, but this does not determine the progress provided in that event.

    Suggestion:
    Add a 'progress_added' value in the event object indicating how much this one event "helped".

    -channel.hype_train.begin

  12. Summary:
    A cheer message can be multiple cheers in a single payload. Providing the individual cheer components in an int array would provide data that is not currently there. Emote placement, while also desired, would be still more work than should be necessary at first glance to determine the bits used.

    Example: **
    BarryCarlyon PogChamp100 PogChamp100 Party100 Wow Soaryn is Frustrated!
    This would result in **"bits": 300;
    however this is incomplete and would be desired to also have something like "bits_used": [100,100,100]

    Reasoning:
    While again, emote placement would help, determining the bits used from it would be extra and redundant…

  13. Twitch requires streamers to run more ads

    We are building tools to help facilitate this

    There is noting in the API to let us know when ads run

  14. Just like the /helix/users/follows endpoint, I would like the /helix/subscriptions endpoint to also provide the total results in addition to the next and previous links.

    Currently I have to recursively go through all the subscriber pages, 100 par 100, and add up for each one. So I make for my 12,000 subscribers not far from 120 calls which, on the one hand overloads the service and uses part of my call quota, and on the other hand take almost a whole minute to execute.

    This is a certain burden for our two sides, as a "total" field would solve all…

  15. It would be worth mentioning that in order for developer to see the extension changes, "Live Config Path" has to be filled in with "index.html" as well. Since I was logged in with my streaming account (I assume most of them will be streaming accounts if you are testing on your own profile), I was not able to see the changes.

  16. It would be great, if the add/update events for Custom Rewards and Custom Reward Redemptions would have a flag, if the Custom Reward was created by the client_id which subscribed the topic.

  17. As we all know by know the recent bunnyhop incident showed, that the way this feature is offered today might actually lead to ways of URL grabbing and harvesting.

    The way it is designed today makes it easy to replace it and harvest many streams as content.

    "<!-- Add a placeholder for the Twitch embed -->
    <div id="twitch-embed"></div>

    <!-- Load the Twitch embed script -->
    <script src="https://player.twitch.tv/js/embed/v1.js"></script>

    <!-- Create a Twitch.Player object. This will render within the placeholder div -->
    <script type="text/javascript">
    new Twitch.Player("twitch-embed", {
    channel: "itmkoeln"
    });
    </script>"

    Even if that gets moved in the dashboard instead of the…

  18. The endpoint /helix/subscriptions?broadcaster_id=USER_ID doesn't return the data from the most recent to the oldest subscriber.

    We could maybe use /helix/subscriptions/events?broadcaster_id=ID but the data here apparently doesn't last more than 5 days or so. This doesn't work for small streamers who don't have a lot of subscribers coming on a daily basis, for example.

    Suggestions:

    1. Create an "order" parameter to the first endpoint, so we could use like /helix/subscriptions?broadcaster_id=USER_ID&order=desc&limit=1
    2. Make the second endpoint return the latest "forever".

    The first endpoint seems buggy, the data being returned comes in random order and the pagination cursor is always present, even if I clearly…

  19. Honestly this whole documentation is a bit sloppy. There should be clearer examples of using the APIs as I had to go Googling how the authentication actually works as the headers seem to be different than this suggests.

  20. So it seems that when a user is banned or timed out, extensions unload/are unavailable to those users.

    This is not documented.

    It should be documented somewhere
