Fetching a token returns `bearer` but Helix doesn't accept `bearer` Brief description
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/getting-tokens-oauth
When you get a token, it returns token_type as bearer
If you take this value as is and call helix endpoints it doesn't work as helix only accepts Bearer
How to reproduce
Generate a token
Construct a header using the returned data by concatenating elements from the returned JSON
`Authorization: ' . tokentype . ' ' . accesstokenCall a helix endpoint
Get a 401
Expected behaviorTwitch accepts Bearer and bearer as valid
or
returns Bearer as the token type when fetching a token.
Additional context or questions
I'm not sure what the correct…

Have PubSub Channel Points topics fire an event when an unfulfilled reward has been marked as completed What's been made available for the events from PubSub is nice, but currently there is no way to know of when a unfulfilled reward has been marked as complete by a Streamer/Mod. Since the event is already well structured, all that would need to be done is simply re-send the same event with the status property updated to reflect that it was fulfilled (either just using the existing "FULFILLED" value or possibly a new value like "MANUALLY FULFILLED").

Add the IGDB game ID to the Helix Games Endpoint Now that Twitch is utilizing IGDB instead of Giantbomb.
Please add the IGDB Game ID to the Helix Fetch Game endpoint.
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-games
https://api-docs.igdb.com/#gameThen we can easily lookup a game on Twitch with the game on IGDB without getting lost in search/selecting the wrong one with a similar name

Ordering by date of helix endpoints Being able to order some of the Helix endpoints by date would be useful
Follower for example would need in some cases 11k+ calls to the follower endpoint to just get the 100 followers who had followed for the longest time.
This would also be good in the subscription endpoint if cumulative and streak get put into the Helix API

Add functionality to query broadcaster id and user id for the Bits transaction API It would be convenient to have the ability to query Bits transactions based on broadcaster id and user id. This is extremely helpful for Extensions with lots of transactions and saves on calls to the API that would be necessary for paginating until the desired transaction is found.

IRC USERSTATE emote-sets should include bit emotes etc When a user connects to IRC, the USERSTATE command gives a emote-sets list, this does not contain unlocked bit emotes and I'm guessing it also doesn't include follower emotes and animated emotes. This should be fixed.

'Get User Follows' endpoint response data should include 'logo' & 'notifications' The new API endpoint 'Get User Follows'
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/users#get-user-followsCould include more data than what is currently provided.
The legacy endpoint alternative offers a lot more but not all of this info is required by default.
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-users-followsMy suggestion would be to at least provide the 'notifications' as well as the 'logo' info. To keep the requests at an optimal size by default, extra request parameters can be given such as:
?showLogo=true&showNotifications=true
(which can default to false when not present)or
?verbose=true
(which will provide an equivalent response to the legacy variant)The new endpoint should also only show this extra…

Extend Start commercial to include preroll data When streamers run ads, they'd like to know how long the PreRolls are disabled for.
Please extend https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#start-commercial to return preroll data
For example
{
"data": [{
"length" : 60,
"message" : "",
"retry_after" : 480
}]
}becomes

Extend Moderation API to retrieve and set mod comments of a defined user An update on Jan 31, 2019 gave channel moderators the ability to add comments to users within chat. There is currently no way to use the API to be able to set or retrieve comments for users in chat.
This should be available to the broadcaster and all moderators within a channel.
To add a mod comment to a user, the endpoint could take the following data as inputs:
- User: {user's name}
- Moderator: {mod's name}
- Broadcaster: {broadcaster's name}
- Comment: {comment to be applied}On success, this would return the following:
- Success: {true}
- date: {date}…6 votes -
Create endpoint to return list of all emote sets In V5, it is possible to get all emotes that existed on the platform via both
"get-all-chat-emoticons"
and
"get-chat-emoticons-by-set" (when no sets are provided)This currently has no equivalence in Helix, and also has no listed migration path.
This request is to create an endpoint that returns the list of all emote sets (and ideally their last update time) such as "get-all-emote-sets". This would allow a user to then get all emotes via the "helix get-emote-sets" endpoint that currently exists.

Add image_format or is_animated field to helix Emote endpoints With the addition of animated emotes there is no way to tell from the emote API responses of GetChannelEmotes and GetEmoteSets if a new emote ( id starting with "emotesv2_") is a normal emote or an animated gif emote without downloading it and checking the file contents.
Would be nice to have either a "format" field that tells you "png" or "gif", or at least a "is_animated" bool field for each emote.
Use cases: Whenever you wanna show emote stats or emote info for a channel (like in a chat clients or stats website or emote panel) you often wanna…
6 votesWe will be updating the documentation to make it clearer that the image in the payload will always be a static image. We are also planning to document the URL schema for the CDN to retrieve the animated version.

Extend Clips API to allow filtering by source video ID Rather than having to get all clips from a created time frame window.
It would be nicer to be able to get all clips from a given video ID. Both from a performance perspective and ease of use perspective.
It's then easier for editors to collate clips from a given stream for highlight compilation creation
