The eventsub payload actually does include who sent the gift, but not who received the gift. This is shown on the EventSub documentation: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/eventsub/eventsub-reference/#channel-subscription-gift-event and it matches my actual experience with the data. I would love to be able to put a string together that says "{gifter} gifted a Tier {tier} sub to {recipient}" for an event log.
I understand that field would be null if total is greater than 1, but I'd like to use the recipient if the gifter chose them manually.

need this

It would be wise for consistency across all topics.

I personally would find it useful to have the gift provider info on all of the sub topics:
channel.subscribe; end; message;

Hi Barry, thank you for the feature request. This would mean updating channel.subscribe with this information. Are you also asking for this information to be included in channel.subscription.end or would adding this just to channel.subscribe meet your use case?

Yes please!
