Document when exactly revalidation is required https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/#validating-requests says "You must validate access tokens before making API requests which perform mutations on or access sensitive information of users". It would be helpful to document exactly what "sensitive information" means here.

Extra info regarding requesting access_tokens With the new changes to require OAuth tokens for every request; I think it would be useful to talk about how many times one should and could request tokens.
The easiest path upgrading a legacy implementation is just requesting an access_token on every call. After reading the docs I can't make a good guess whether a low-traffic application can use this approach.Thanks!

Clip Upload Hi, I am trying to upload a clip from my friend's channel. I was not streaming and he was spectating me on Warzone. I created the clip on his channel and downloaded it. I want to upload the clip to my channel but cant figure out how. Help would be appreciated, thank you!

Allow bots to use their own account or user's account The idea of blocking bots stems from abuse. Hovever, bots were anonymous at the time of policy changes.
New policy will require either bot use their own account with API key or software user's account with their login and password, or online authorization to query the site.
Use of accounts will make user responsible by exposing identity and blocking robotic (not human) use in case of abuse.

Homeless Streaming I would like to take out a loan, make a appartment building where homeless people can live rent free as long as then play games 8 hours a day, since theres no rent to be paid, they have to all split the money to pay for food. i'm thinking i can get at least 10 homeless people off the streets and hopefully more. I'm not a rich man but i'll do my best to get it done if twitch is willing as well

Outdated API reference to get channel ID It seems the API being referenced to determine a "channel id" is out of date, "<channel ID> is the _id field returned by the Twitch API v5 Get Channel endpoint."
As I receive the following when attempting to acquire metadata via my client-id at the mentioned API:
{
"message" : "The API version you are looking for is in another castle. See https://dev.twitch.tv/docs",
"error" : "Gone",
"status" : 410
}I'm finding it incredibly confusing understanding where my channel-id comes from. Is it also my user-id? broadcaster-id?

Don't tell people to auth in a non-standard way Make the docs closer to OAuth specs. The docs say to send parameters to /token (and /revoke) in the query string, but this is non-standard. Twitch supports the parameters in either the query string or request body.
The documentation should prefer the standard approach of sending parameters in the request body.

Twitch authentication code samples https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication
"Code samples are available here."
This line needs to be updated to point to different examples as the repo has been updated, for example for nodejs example its now at:
https://github.com/twitchdev/authentication-node-sample
not sure why someone decided it made sense to separate examples rather than place them in one repo
1 voteThank you! We’ve updated the links.

Copy Subscription Support for channel moderation support in extensions https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/new-extension-policy-updates-including-a-moderation-section/24410/3
As noted for the new policy, we should prevent people banned/timed out from the channel, from submitting content.
Theres no way to do that without an extensions developer creating an external oAuth loop to request the relevant scopes from a broadcaster.
Duplicate the subscription scope capability to a the channel moderation scope to facilitate this policy being enforceable and negate the need for two sets of keys for each extension.
28 votesPolicy 7.5 is being removed today as mentioned in our recent announcement. See the post for more information. We will close this suggestion since the functionality is no longer needed to comply with the removed policy. https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/extension-policy-update-moderation/30215

Create API to confirm/deny points rewards after processing of the PubSub message We need an API (probably a helix endpoint) to programmatically mark point rewards as confirmed/executed or denied if a bot who listens to the PubSub automatically processes that event.

Migrate Get Top Videos to new API An app I'm trying to make would heavily depend on the request that was in the deprecated version so migrating it would be amazing.

Documented API for streams and VODs It would be most helpful if there was a documented API for accessing live and VOD video streams that 3rd party clients could use.
It's no secret that there are a variety of 3rd party clients for different platforms that use undocumented APIs that Twitch has made available for a long time. Understandably this is not officially supported, and the future of this status quo is unclear.
