  1. Please add a JS Helper function

    Which is the equivalent of window.Twitch.ext.viewer.sessionToken but for the helixToken of window.Twitch.ext.viewer.helixToken.

  2. This tutorial looks very unprofessional.

    The example GitHub repository is not available from an official Twitch source, but lives in someone's personal
    account at:
    https://github.com/sonia145

    These GitHub organizations would be better alternatives:
    https://github.com/twitchtv
    https://github.com/twitchdev

  3. As the Helix API reference page (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference) is continuing to grow it it is starting to become unwieldly with the number of entries.

    It would be beneficial to the docs to create sections for different areas of the API. Appropriate names for the sections are already listed in the API, as at the top of the reference page is a table that has a 'Resource' column which would be perfect for this usage, and that table can remain at the root reference page so that devs can see at a glance what endpoints are in what section, then…

  5. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#modify-channel-information

    The example calls uses JSON, but the documentation talks about Query String/URL encoded form.

    Docs should cover both possibilities and examples should cover both methods

  7. The description of the broadcaster_id inside of the Create Clip endpoint is very confusing because it states that this is the id of the stream but it really is the id of the broadcaster as the name suggests.

  9. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication#refreshing-access-tokens

    "
    How to Refresh
    To refresh a token, you need an access token/refresh token pair coming from a body. For example:
    "

    You need only the "refresh token" and "client secret"

    You can lose the access token, and still get a new token if you have a refresh_token

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

    The Twitch.ext.viewer object is a collection of info about the twitch viewer that is watching the channel page where your extension is activated. It will only be populated if the viewer is logged in, and only after the `onAuthorized` callback has been called. Accessing its properties will otherwise return `null`.
    

    Should be

    The Twitch.ext.viewer object is a collection of info about the twitch user that is watching the extension view.
    

    Or something, as the viewer helper object exists on all views!

  11. The Get Broadcast Subscriptions docs https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-broadcaster-subscriptions was updated to include gifterid and giftername fields, but neither of these were added to the example.

    Also, the example is erroneous because it shows the same user id for both broadcaster and subscriber, but they represent different usernames, which is impossible.

  12. From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/56

    Brief description

    Documentation describes that there are functions such as followChannel and requestIdShare but the documentation doesn't mention that these functions don't work in the rig (at time of writing)

  15. There does not seem be an equivalent for v5's chat endpoints. In particular, there does not appear to be an endpoint for getting all emoticons such as https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/chat/emoticons.

  16. You have error messages that tell me I can't do [insert a variety of things here] until I have completed something like "Extensions Monetization Onboarding." The error message fails heuristics because it doesn't let me fix the problem. It says I need to do something but doesn't give me a link or way to do it. That seems like a huge mistake, but with the forums FULL of people complaining that they can't find it either, I'm wondering if it's a dark pattern and done on purpose.

    If there is a workflow that requires me to move through certain steps,…

  17. It would be nice to have a "next" or "continue" button. It is confusing to navigate after reading "what are we going to build", I wasn't sure where this building was going to happen.

  19. The tutorials just leave you at the end of a page with no 'Continue' or 'Next Step' button. It 's not obvious if I'm at the end of the tutorial or not.
