  2. As of now, the new channel.chat.message notification is a nice addition to the EventSub system.
    But I'd love to get some more information about the user sending the chat message, slightly similar to the IRC implementation but still less verbose.

    In comparison to the IRC, I miss some flags like isVip, isSubscriber, isModerator, maybe even isEmoteDesigner (?). I'd be also great to have something like isFollower, same for the IRC implementation.

    When developing a 3rd party system to allow broadcasters to implement chat commands, this would really improve the usability of this event messages and could…

  3. Features onChanged helper callback executed once instead when e.g. chat or bits enabled changes

    it appears that atleast in hosted env, the following code:

    const onChangedFeaturesCallback = (changes) => {
        console.log(changes)
    }
    window.Twitch.ext.features.onChanged(onChangedFeaturesCallback)
    
    

    is executed once. It is not wrapped within onAuthorized. Context: the broadcaster and user are the same logged in clients, and the client is affiliate

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference/#onchanged-features

    I could not verify it works on production. Based on the docs mentioned above, I would expect it to execute the callback function whenever features change (including hosted/dev stage) .. e.g. chatEnabled or bitsEnabled changed by the broadcaster in permission…

  4. Previously PubSub had a field called "bitstotalused" in a cheers payload that represented all-time user bits which is not currently available in EventSub events. This is an important data that I was using to cache data for custom leaderboards widget that requires any data prior to its existence. Unfortunately, to obtain this data you have to make a Leaderboard API call by user_id, which is really inconvenient.

  5. I think all the above examples need to be reviewed as almost none work.
    also requirements to us these flows is not mentioned , probably with good reason as building a secure web authentication server to use this flow is an insane ask of independent developers.

  6. Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to use my own user-access token, and see my OWN watchtime on the different channels/categories. Basically, knowing who I watch the most and what categories/games I watch the most ! I went through the API options, and I can't find this one.

  7. Re-add an app access token based endpoint to get all chatters for a stream, in an anonymized form, for more detailed analytics.

    To insure this data isn't used in a bad way, the user should be anonymized, so you only know that a user watches streamer a, b and c but not who this user is.

    It would also be necessary to only allow this endpoint for streams with a viewer_count greater than 500 (or some other number) to insure the user not being identifiable.
    By allowing to get all chatters for a stream, you can create more detailed analytics…

  8. I discovered that the extension in Twitch chat displays an incorrect description. The 'Description' section is supposed to be viewable only by streamers and viewers on the Extension Detail page, but this is not the case. Instead, the 'Description' appears in the chat, as opposed to the 'Summary'. As illustrated in the provided screenshot [https://imgur.com/a/LNOpr6B], I filled out all three forms, and the chat shows the 'Description'. It would be more appropriate to display the 'Summary' in chat since the 'Description' can be quite lengthy.

    'Description' is labeled with the caption 'is viewable by streamers and viewers only…

  9. Get Channel Followers (https://api.twitch.tv/helix/channels/followers) has an optional user_id parameter to provide support for checking if a particular user_id is following the broadcaster.

    However, it doesn't allow you to supply more than one user_id. This makes it impossible to batch check if certain users are following.

    Most other endpoints allow this batching behavior such as:

    Get Banned Users
    Get User Chat Color
    Get VIPs
    Get Users
    Get Broadcaster Subscriptions
    Get Channel Information

    My Use Case:

    I would like streamers to set up automation triggers based on if a viewer is following/subbed/etc. To do this I lazily update a cache…

  10. You have on your developer site an example to embed the chat.
    The problem is: When i embed the chat like your example:

    <iframe id="twitch-chat-embed"
    src="https://www.twitch.tv/embed/twitchdev/chat?parent=dev.twitch.tv"
    height="500"
    width="350">
    </iframe>

    First I have to accept the cookies, before I can see the chat, but the message is so big, I can't click on confirm. The button doesnt show up on height 500px - it's below under it.
    Maybe you can change it, that the buttons are on top and the text under it or make the text collapsible?

    Btw: The cookie message is in german language
    Picture of the iframe: https://i.imgur.com/gUaELUa.jpg

  11. Twitch Dashboard allows the broadcaster to configure a notification for an upcoming ad, up to 20 minutes in advance, and allow for a snooze.

    If the broadcaster has enabled this feature, I'd like for Twitch to send a channel.ad_break.upcoming event over EventSub, so I can trigger actions off of that.

  13. Currently the authorized token must be of the broadcaster, but broadcasters often use specific Bot accounts to do any bot interactions instead of their own personal one. The ADs endpoint should be updated to allow mods or editors (who both already have access in the dashboard to see the ad schedule and snooze ads) who are authorized to pull the ad schedule.

  14. Currently there is no way to SORT your Twitch Drop Campaigns in the Twitch Developers Drops page.

    As I am making new campaigns it just randomly places them in the list. Before with the Legacy (and much better interface, it is missed) all campaigns would be in order of creation, and you could SORT them. Right now there is no sorting allowed.

    Please add in a sorting feature!

  16. There should be a minimal method of getting basic information about a Channel Point Reward e.g. Custom Name, using only its ID.

    For example, lets say we listen to the redeem event with tmi.js, all we're given (as far as I can see) is the rewardId. I'd want to be able to use this rewardId to fetch more basic,non-private information, such as the Reward's custom name, without the need for a user token from the broadcaster.

    If we're able to fetch basic stream information (e.g. title, game) without the need for a broadcaster's token, we SHOULD be able to at…

  18. Please provide an API to set/unset/get the state of "Stop Raids for 1 hour" button that exists on the Dashboard so that streamers can use it as a Streamdeck button for example and/or tie it into other automation.

  19. Are there any plans to implement MQTT as an available transport? It seems like the protocol's architecture suits EventSub very well and might make EventSub easier for developers familiar with it.

    Not sure how authorization would be handled. That might be a chore, but if it's worth the effort involved it would be cool to have.

  20. There should be a way to enable notifications on Twitch to know when a drop is available for the video games you choose. So that Twitch notify you through e-mail or something.

    ****! I always miss half of the drops... (._.)

    Also keep in mind that there are people who only watch Twitch when there are drops for their favorite video game.
