Add Team Embed Option I would love an option that mimics the team page's embed, that it shows the top streamer, or even a random active streamer from the team. So you can just embed one object, and Twitch will do the logic to show whoever is currently live.

Provide a Helix endpoint to list reward templates created by user, and eventually see the (done, claimed, refunded) I would like to have a way to access a list of CHANNEL REWARDS available for a given channel. Without authentication would be nice, as anyone can see it in the website regardless.
Another additional data provided if the API call is authenticated with the said channel, would be to see the status of the claims (Accepted, pending, refunded) so that the projects based on those can know if it was accepted or if it can be safely removed, in case of a refund.

Search Categories: Relevance The Search Categories API doesn't seem to apply any "relevance" and direct matches are not often the first result.

Please apply relevance sorting.

Authentification desctription isn't descriptive enough Description in "Getting tokens" isn't very clear and missing a link to "Getting Tokens: OAuth", where it's all explained in detail. That does confuse people

Add where user left off in VOD (video bookmark) to Get Videos If the request (Get Videos) is authenticated by a user, return a response field video_bookmark which returns, in seconds, where the user left off in watching the video. Or it could be requested at a different endpoint by video ID or something.

Add duration in seconds to Get Videos The Get Videos API presents the duration as a string, example: "3h8m33s"
Please add an additional key of "duration_seconds" of the time of the video in seconds.

Improve "Get Streams" viewers count accuracy Many times, "viewer_count" response field doesn't change during several minutes (due to caching?). However, when you're watching a stream you can see how this data is refreshed each 20-25 seconds.
Benefit: Increase the precision of apps that use this field

Complete Response Codes in Twitch Docs It would be great if we could have a list of the status codes and their reasons so we can write code to prepare for handling those errors, instead of logging them and dealing with them as they happen - for all endpoints. These exist, for the most part, in a lot of the newer endpoint documentation, but a lot of the older endpoints were rushed in their documentation and we have little information on what responses to expect. Sometimes we get 200s, 202s, 400s, 410s - and having to just "wait" or try to plan for them is a…

PayPal style flow for Bits Transactions Currently bits transactions only let you be notified of the SKU that was used.
I would like to see a more "PayPal" model or the bits usage flow.
Developers would make a POST request to Twitch with the SKU and any meta/extra data for the purchase, which would return a CheckoutID.
Developers would then pass the CheckoutID to use bits
window.Twitch.ext.bits.useBits(sku, CheckoutID);Then on completion (or cancel) and thus the webhook/Transactions API, can return a reference to that CheckoutID and allow developers to obtain that meta data, either via API call, or returned in the
onTransactionCompleteJWT.The CheckoutID created…

Webhook for commercials Please provide a webhook so that authorised tools can collect Commercial status when an ad is run not via the Start Commercial API endpoint (ie Via chat or another authorised user)
So tool A will know not to try and run ads because user Fred just did
And Tool A doesn't want to run ads after the "retry_after" period as Fred ran the ads 20 minutes early. so we'd want to reset the start point to when Fred ran ads. For say when Tool A runs ads one per hour
For example

Extend Start commercial to include preroll data When streamers run ads, they'd like to know how long the PreRolls are disabled for.
Please extend https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#start-commercial to return preroll data
For example
{
"data": [{
"length" : 60,
"message" : "",
"retry_after" : 480
}]
}becomes
{
"data": [{
"length" : 60,
"message" : "",
"retryafter" : 480,
"prerollends": unixTimestamp
}]

Inaccurate info in instrcutions 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!

Was wondering if the dev team would consider adding a language filter for clips. Similar to the one implemented in the TwitchV5 API Old API allowed you to only get clips with a specified language. Since this is not in the new API, sorting clips through language, ends up eating through your requests. Since you have a limit of 100, about 1/3 of clips gathered will NOT be English, meaning you have roughly 66 clips. Would be nice if that could be added to allow requests to return more clips.

Display hosted channels parameter option Consider a parameter option to display hosted channels if the embedded channel is not live. The parameter option is being suggested so that a broadcaster/developer can choose if they do or do not want hosted channels to display when the experience is embedded.
