1. Webhooks limits: ambiguous

   From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/65

   Brief description

   https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/webhooks-guide

   Limits: By default, each client ID can have at most 10,000 subscriptions. Also, you can subscribe to the same topic at most 3 times.

   Seems to be ambiguous to a lot of developers, they seem to think the that "3 times" means they can renew it 3 times then they are SOOL

   Expected documentation

   Limits: Each client ID can have at most 10,000 subscriptions. Where you can have 3 active subscriptions to a topic at the same time. Where an active subscription is defined as a topic/callback pair.

3. Extension viewer Session Token

   From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/51

   Brief description

   https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#helper-viewer

   documentation wrong:

   sessionToken
   Twitch.ext.viewer.isLinked: string
   
   The encoded JWT. This is the same as the token property of the authData parameter that currently gets passed to the onAuthorized callback.
   

   Expected documentation

   sessionToken
   Twitch.ext.viewer.sessionToken: string
   
   The encoded JWT. This is the same as the token property of the authData parameter that currently gets passed to the onAuthorized callback.

6. Locales/language valid options

   From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/31

   Brief description

   The documentation doesn't advise anything regarding what languages/localses exist/are valid to be called.

   For example

   https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-streams

   has a language query string argument, but doesn't advise what is valid for a langauge.

   Expected documentation

   Document the list of locales of if it matches a ISO, update documentation on endpoints using language/locale with a note about what is valid

   As announced at last week’s Developer Day, we now have set of Channel Points endpoints and EventSub subscription types. This initial release may address much of the feedback captured here, if you still have features you would like so see, please feel free to file more UserVoice ideas under the “API” category.

10. Provide API to return subscriber points

    As noted here

    https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/lifetime-subscriber-guide-for-partners?language=en_US

    Lifetime Subscribers are a unique benefit for Twitch Partners. Lifetime subscriptions do not generate revenue or additional subscription points.

    No where in the subscribers API is a given sub tagged as lifetime.

    So whilst we can math the subscriber points from helix, we can't discount these lifetime subs from our count.

    Extend the subscribers API to flag as lifetime, (or provide a seperate endpoint)
    And provide a API to fetch the Sub Points without having to iterate all pages.

    “points” has been added to the “Get Broadcaster Subscriptions” endpoint and documentation has been updated.

11. Add v5 "Get Followed Streams" endpoint to Helix

    The Helix API currently has no way of retrieving a particular users online channels they are following. This is done by the "Get Followed Streams" API in v5 (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/streams#get-followed-streams)

    To get the same behavior in the current Helix endpoints would require TENS of requests each time you wanted to check for the presence of a channel coming online/going offline, instead of the nice single endpoint v5 offers.

    I've requested this endpoint for a few years now and was told v5 and Helix will have parity before v5 is officially shutdown, so I hope that's still the case.

12. Start Channel Commercial (Helix)

    Helix is currently missing the Kraken endpoint /kraken/channels/<channel ID>/commercial

    Running a commercial through the API is e.g. very useful for broadcasters who want to assign that responsibility to someone else.

13. Get Channel Editors

    Getting the list of a channel's editors for e.g. importing, and verifying editor status is something that is missing from Helix.

    Kraken had this in /kraken/channels/<channel ID>/editors and it was very useful.

    The ability to verify your Twitch editor status is necessary to properly interact with Twitch's editor features.

14. Missing User's subscriptions functionality for the subscriptions endpoint

    On helix we can only get people that are subscribed to a broadcaster, we can't get the broadcasters a user is subscribed to.

    So basically we've got V5 channels/<channel ID>/subscriptions.
    We are missing V5 <user ID>/subscriptions/<channel ID>.

    Some of the requested functionality is available with the Check User Subscription API.

15. OAuth Connection Revocation Event/WebHook

    I would like to be able to react to a user disconnecting my application from their account without having to constantly poll with the user's token to ensure that it is still valid. If I were to constantly poll for all users that have used FrankerFaceZ's website, I would be making thousands of requests per minute. My servers don't need the unnecessary load. Your servers don't. There is a better way.

    For this I request implementation of a revocation webhook, similar to those used by GitHub (ref1), Facebook (ref2), Slack (ref3), Discord (ref4), etc.

    To clarify, I don't want a webhook as they have been used previously with Twitch's API. I want to be able to use the admin panel to associate a URL with my OAuth app that is hit when a user disconnects from my app. This represents an event that I would want to know about in perpetuity for the lifetime of my application and having to constantly re-subscribe would just waste everyone's time. If you do choose to implement this as other webhooks have been implemented, please do NOT require us to subscribe to each individual user. The idea is that we want to know about any authorized users disconnecting.

    For example, if I entered the URL " https://my-site.example/webhooks/disconnect " then I would expect Twitch to POST to that URL when a user disconnects with a JSON payload including, at a minimum, the Twitch user ID so that we can identify the user and perform any relevant logic to deactivate their account in our system.

    This is similar to the existing topic "Extension webhooks for streamer actions", but I believe that OAuth connections and adding an extension to a channel are sufficiently different topics to warrant posting this again. I also want to make it clear that this should 1: Not be a standard webhook that requires us to constantly resubscribe for every user using our app and 2: This should not be overly tied to extensions and should be for OAuth connections.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    As part of the newly announced EventSub product, we now have a authorizations.revoke subscription type. You can see more info here: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/eventsub/eventsub-subscription-types#user-subscriptions

16. API for channel banned terms CRUD

    https://dashboard.twitch.tv/u/USERNAME/settings/moderation/blocked-terms

    There is no API for automation of adding/removing/listing a given channels blocked-terms

    When adding/removing a term modlogs display in chat as

    barrycarlyon used: /addblockedterm THISISATEST.
    barrycarlyon used: /deleteblockedterm THISISATEST.

    But these are not valid chat commands either.

    Now available via Get Channel Emotes. https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/announcing-api-endpoints-for-twitch-emotes/32073

18. Emotes by channelID

    It is impossible to get the emotes for a channel from the API via Channel ID

    The API uses "emotesetID" and there is no API endpoint that provides the emotesetID for a given channel

    Please provide a way to get the emotes for a channel via ChannelID/ChannelLogin

    We recently added duration to the Get Clips endpoint.

20. Extend the Clips API to include recreation from source information

    The clips API

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-clips

    doesn't contain enough information to recreate the clip from the source video, it doesn't have the length of the clip or the start point in the vod.
