  1. The endpoints announced earlier today ( https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/announcing-apis-and-eventsub-for-polls-and-predictions/31539 ) should be usable by channel moderators so that third-party apps like Chatty can make use of them without the broadcaster needing to authenticate.

  2. Partners get a verified badge, it would be nice for published developers to get a badge too, maybe after a certain usage requirement of their extension, like how partners have to hit certain limits to become partner, maybe enough usages or page views of the extension will get a dev a badge.

  3. An improved "hlsLatencyBroadcaster" value unlocks and improves interactive experiences that rely on precise synchronization. For example, the Tobii eye tracker Extension and many Genvid Extensions that rely on this latency for accurate click or display location.

    This functionality may be considered in the future, and we appreciate the feedback and comments provided on this suggestion. There are some technical challenges to solve to provide a better experience for synchronous use cases, though we do not have a timeframe for when this effort would be prioritized at this time.

  4. There is no API methods for deleting a Clip

    Please provide a method

  5. Create/Update doesn't provide the ability to upload/change images for a reward.

    This would be useful.

    Alternatively if we can't do upload initially.

    Add the ability to specify a channel emote (either by coDe or ID) so the reward would "copy" the channelEmote for that channel in.

    So if I create a reward for CohhCarnage I can pick a cohhEmote (but I can't pick a liriki emote)

    Or specify a URL to fetch a Image from

  6. Given the fact that Twitch had to take down the follow/unfollow api's due to bot programs that are out there - my suggestion would be to have an approved set of developers that propose and showcase their applications.

    This way Twitch could bring back the follow/unfollow API and any service or developer that was in violation of Twitch's TOS regarding the API could be warned and ultimately have their access and credentials removed.

    Twitch Developers could review the logs of which applications were connected with BOT services and immediately shut those down rather then removing the api in its entirety…

  7. Allowing developers to roll back a released version to another (approved) version would allow developers to quickly address breaking issues without going through a review process.

  8. If you have a created a raid.

    You should be able to use the API to trigger "raid now"

    Which is a button on the front end UI which allows the streamer to skip the 90 second.

  9. Subscribe topic only broadcasts "new subscriptions"

    So when a subscription "expires" we don't get a "payment notification" for a Resub

    This is NOT a eventsub for the "chat notification" see https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/42008104-please-provide-an-event-sub-that-emits-sub-notifi for that

    Changing status to long-term. To preserve ecressey's previous comment, "I'm not clear on the use case for this. It seems like with a resub chat message notification and subscribe/unsubscribe events you should have the data you need."

  10. If would be very useful for chat clients or chat overlays to be able to show live updates on these features. Currently they are only available for the broadcaster (redemptions) or not at all through websockets (polls/predictions).

    Ideally this would be available for all users to receive, just like chat is (which allows more simple integration into all kinds of tools), but even just mods using third-party moderation tools would already benefit greatly from this.

    I included all three of those features, since they all seem to follow the same idea of only allowing the broadcaster access to that information…

  11. Add a flag, which is true, when a subscription is made through Prime Gaming. Distinguishing between a regular sub and a Prime sub allows us to react differently on these cases, like also being able to promote the free Prime Gaming sub.

  12. There needs to be an API that allows for the return of channal analytics.
    This would have the reqiured query parameters of: broadcaster_id

    Only stating the broadcaster_id could return the following results:
    - Average viewers
    - Total views
    - Average new followers per stream
    - Total followers
    - Average subscribers per stream
    - Total subscribers
    - Average minutes watched per stream
    - Total minutes watched

    It could also return:
    - Best performing catagories
    - Best performing tags

    There would idealy also be some optional query parameters: start-date, end-date, time.

    Adding the optional query parameters would also add the result:
    -…

  13. Why is the share always 80% streamer and 20% developer? Would be way better if the developers could decide their extension percentage.

    If I sell an cosmetic item in my game ( on my website) for 5$ I get like 4.8$
    If I want to sell the same item on twitch I would need to sell it for 24$ to get 4.8$

    So as developer I have these options:

    • Don't use Bits -> Streamer receives 0$
    • Link to our website -> Streamer receives 0$
    • Make prices way to expensive -> nobody buys -> Streamer receives 0$

    So if you make…

  14. It shouldn't be required for manage roles such as mod/vip via the chat

    It shouldn't be required to manage editor/mod/vip via the roles manager

    it would be useful for automation/third party management to be able to manage roles via the API

    Currently not a top priority, but we are interested in your use cases for this functionality to be considered at a later time. Please include more information in the comments as to how and why this would be useful.

  15. Today when you're using chat you can just enter /ban user and the user will be banned, and the same is true for the IRC command, you can ban just by their username. It would be good if the ban endpoint would follow the same pattern.

    The use case for that is that I have a tool to mass-ban multiple users on multiple channels at the same time (I mod quite a lot of channels, so this streamlines this process), and I decided to migrate from the IRC API to the helix API, but because of it just accepting the…

  16. Summary:
    A cheer message can be multiple cheers in a single payload. Providing the individual cheer components in an int array would provide data that is not currently there. Emote placement, while also desired, would be still more work than should be necessary at first glance to determine the bits used.

    Example: **
    BarryCarlyon PogChamp100 PogChamp100 Party100 Wow Soaryn is Frustrated!
    This would result in **"bits": 300;
    however this is incomplete and would be desired to also have something like "bits_used": [100,100,100]

    Reasoning:
    While again, emote placement would help, determining the bits used from it would be extra and redundant…

  17. Add three topics

    • Raid Begin, a channel started a /raid
    • Raid progress, the number of users in the raid changed (sensibly capped so not too spammy on the webhook, but if socket, more spammy perhaps)
    • Raid End, raid completed or was cancelled.

  18. Scenario:
    A viewer comes in and gifts 10 subs to the community; This fires off in theory 11 events. One event is the channel.subscribe.gift, while the other 10 are the individual channel.subscribe for the 10 users.

    Request:
    The channel.subscribe.gift has an id associated with its emission. Something that would benefit reactionary data would be each of the individual channel.subscribe events having a gift_event_id. If the sub was a gift, set the id to the channel.subscribe.gift event id.

    Use Cases:
    - A developer could choose to listen to the batched gift amount and react to that single event, then…

  19. To forward live notifications, it would be awesome to also receive the live notification message the streamer has set - either when they set it with channel.update and/or when the stream goes live.

  20. Or as a minimum "Raids this stream".

    But then you need a sensible reset point. So last x days works. Similar to other "time" based endpoints.
