restrictions to prevent bot follows
The idea is simple: Add the same phone & email verification options to the ability to actually follow a channel, and thus also giving account age requirements to be able to follow a channel. This will allow small streamers being targeted by hate raid Bot attacks to simply prevent the bot attacks easily, instead of being driven off the platform.

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.

Gift sub grouping
When a "gift bomb"
there is no way to gather all the gifts into one event.
Each gift in a bomb should have a ID to link it to the header event.IRC sends a header saying "x is giving out y subs to the community"
But the USERNOTICE events, don't say they belong to that event.Please provide a way to group the events, something as simple as a "parentid" in the child gifts subs, that'll link to a "childid" in the header event.
This header and extra ID's need to be provided on the PubSub event…
67 votesWe are investigating this for EventSub.

Vod chat for helix
Currently twitch embed does not support vod chat and neither does the helix api.
Twitch only allows vod chat to be seen directly on the website.
This data could be used in a great number of ways by third-parties particularly video editors.
Please add a way to retrieve chat for vods
No? ok. Sadge

Moderator Actions PubSub topic should work for all moderators of the channel
The
chat_moderator_actionstopic in the PubSub documentation appears to only work with a broadcaster OAuth token. This prevents third-party modding tools that don't use some kind of centralized system from accessing information that is vital for effective modding (such as which mod performed an action, actions that aren't otherwise visible like unbans and viewing and approving messages filtered by AutoMod).With a centralized system the broadcaster could provide a token somehow that the moderators don't need to have access to directly, however with purely clientside tools this is not feasible. I'm also not sure why moderators should not have access…

Highlight vod offset/origin vod
Extend the Videos API via a "metadata" endpoint, that provides additional data about the video.
Including but not limited to
- Category changes during the video
- Offsets are relative to the source video that the video is from. So for a highlight it would report the video it was cut from and include where in the origin file the highlight is cut from.
For Example: https://api.twitch.tv/helix/videos/metadata?id=1234
Metadata would support up to 100 (or 50) id's at once like Get VideosReturns examples
A video of type archive
{
"data": [
{
"id": "1234",
"duration": 18000,
"chapters": [
{
"offset": 0,

Stream title searching
"The v5 endpoint searched for the channel title and category. Use “Search Channels” to match channel name or title." on https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/migration is wrong because the new API does not matches the title! There is no replacement for title searching!

Add PKCE Support to the OAuth2.0 Authorization Code Flow
I am currently developing a native Android application for Twitch and want to make use of the OAuth2.0 API. Since the Twitch Authorization Server doesn't seem to support the PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange), i will have to put my client secret into my native application, which isn't secure at all, because the app can easily be decompiled.
This is a requirement for all native apps, as stated by the IETF in RFC 7636 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7636).
I hope to see this implemented soon, because this poses a huge security risk for all native apps and their developers.

Re-add created at, streak and/or expires to Check User Subscription
In Twitch v5, the Get User Subscription endpoint contained a created_at and a streak for the current user subscription for a broadcaster.
Helix, lacks this functionality, and thus it is impossible to determine how long someone has been subscribed for, and also impossible to determine if they've renewed their subscription.
These fields are imperative to some applications, especially ones that want to externally reward members monthly for each month they've subscribed. Please return these fields to the endpoint!

Search streams by Tag name
Hey, not sure if this has been posted as a uservoice already, I took a quick glance using the above title as a query and couldnt find anything about it.
It would be nice with the new Custom Tags feature that we would be able to get a list of streams with x tag(s) for 3rd party use. Id envision this to either be its own endpoint, or potentially added to the
queryproperty of the "Get Streams" endpoint, like Kraken used to do with title searching (Which also would be nice to have back in Helix)38 votes -
Extend videos API to allow editors (and above) to automate downloads
In a similar fashion as
The Videos API should be extended to provide the (original) VOD to authenticated users where that user is an Editor or better of the channel.
As in unmuted.
For the purpose of backing up/taking a copy of the Twitch stream and/or taking that content (that the streamer owns) for use on other platforms.
Editors can already do this via the Video Dashboard, so the API should support this also

Get moderators endpoint - remove need for broadcaster authorization
The Helix /moderation/moderators endpoint currently requires an OAuth token from the broadcaster. Given you can just do /mods in any chat (not requiring authorization from the broadcaster), what is the point of requiring the authorization here?
