Follow up to https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/39228787-extend-the-clips-api-to-include-recreation-from-so

to request the offset of a clip being added to the API

Use cases include

• Deduplication of Clips submitted to a clips submission thing
• Recreate the clip from a copy of the vod.
• Using the offset to easily spot "hype" points of a stream for channel editors making highlights to focus on that point aka "heatmaps of popular stream time points"
• From CSharpFritz: Show clips in the order that they naturally occurred, and not the time that they were created

Please provide an API to CRUD polls and observe the results in real time when a poll is ran.

Ability to read historical/past polls would also be nice

Please provide an

• api
• Eventsub
• Webhooks

CRUD and result monitoring for the new predictions feature of channel points

Add subscriber count to a Helix endpoint. This is important information for many streaming tools. Scope is an open question; whether anyone should be able to see someone's subscriber count or if this is only visible by the broadcaster's authentication.

Please provide an API for the new upcoming Twitch features (preferrably day 1 would be nice)

Today, I'm here again to ask for an API.

Today for the new/upcoming schedule feature I've heard about

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

A great many Ideas/notes and stuff from the Developer discord was collected and thrown into a Google Docs

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dxx04pp6VVqY9s9JRcVP3w9keBHrRR5LB3Q043McS1Q/edit?usp=sharing

Covers
- CRUD store items
- Fetching/updating points values
- handling store redepmtions
- Stuff about webhooks
- Stuff about points in extensions (see also https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/38874571-channel-point-transaction-in-extension )

Throwing it here so it's here as well as already sent to Twitch via Dev Advocacy

Using just helix it is impossible to get the title/status or game of a channel when it is offline.

Which makes it difficult for third party tools to obtain title/game to check it should match what we want before the channel goes live, so that notifications for the channel (email etc) have the correct game/title.

Additionally bot commands such as

"!caster - caster link to caster was last seen playing game"

are difficult to achieve using pure Helix

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.

Please provide an API to CRUD channel blocked terms

Provide an API to get the currently playing sound from Soundtrack

This will allow chatbots and overlays to display now playing information

On a per channel basis return

• Song Name
• Song Artist
• Song Album
• Song meta data such as Soundtrack Category etc
• Song box art
• Song album box art
• Song Duration (in seconds or hh:mm:ss format/other RFC format)
• Time song started playing

Add an endpoint to edit the stream title and currently played game, the equivalent in v5 was:

PUT /kraken/channels/<channel ID> with "status" and "game" fields.

The PUT /helix/streams/tags endpoint accomplishes parts of this, an implementation could look like this:

PUT /helix/streams [required scope: user:edit:broadcast]
Request fields: user_id to identify the user whose stream is to be edited, game_id to identify the game played and title to set the stream title/status.

Bit emotes which are earned from using emotes in a channel

Are not exposed in the API.

Please expose them

A user's created timestamp is not yet available through Helix. The updated timestamp is personally less useful but would be nice for consideration.

Get Streams does not denote if the stream is mature or not.

Please provide an eventsub notification topic for sub notifications

Which would be a "clone" of messages appearing in chat for sub/resub notifications

For resubs the chat message and emote placement would be included

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.

Features like Channel Points are restricted for Affiliate accounts only.

The fact that not all developers are streamers themselves too, makes it harder to test features like PubSub on the channelpoints topic. It makes them dependent on other affiliate streamers to test their codebase.

It would be nice if it was possible to have alternative ways to access those. either in a developer sandbox mode for testing, or by a waiver of the regular affiliate requirements for developers.
