Add Ban-reason to users that are banned in /moderation/banned Moderators are able to add a reason/description whenever they ban people in chat (/ban [username] reason)
This information is currently only available in the "not allowed to use" GraphQL-api, but should also be added to the documentet endpoints; /moderation/banned and /moderation/banned/events
(Ban-reason is different from moderator-comments.)

Set custom tags to stream info Hello :)
We can now add custom tags to our stream infos but the API does allow us to do the same for now.
Also, if we edit the tags from the new form, we don't get them back with the API.Is this API update planed ?
25 votesWe recently added updated Helix with support for custom tags. You can use the Modify Channel Info endpoint to add tags.

Fulfill or Reject Channel Points Redemptions Programmatically Channel points have the ability to reward loyal viewers with real-time influence on the stream. Sometimes such requests may be filtered, which should trigger a rejection (therefore refund).
Right now the only way to do this programmatically would be to use unsupported GQL APIs and risk the wrath of Twitch, or wrap the rewards queue in some way. This is the only blocker (technically speaking) for the workflow, as PubSub does expose enough information to respond to the redemptions automatically.
I've had a proof of concept on my stream which gets redemptions via PubSub, filters the submission for offensive content…

Ads status endpoint Please provide an endpoint that returns the following information
- adverts last run
- adverts can run next (retry_after)
- adverts max duration
It would be useful to provide better tooling for streamers whom have a contract requiring ads to be run.

The requested "retry_after" feature is not available directly, but can be inferred.

Add game title to Get Streams for convenience Adding the commonly-used game title field to the Get Streams endpoint payload (similar to the addition of user name) will allow developers to make less calls for the data needed. In other words, Get Games would not need to be called for every game id to get one more field.
16 votes“game_name” has been added as of November 13, 2020 (Twitch Developer Day). https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/twitch-developer-day-2020-recap-introducing-the-channel-points-api-eventsub-and-more/29249

Provide Soundtrack Song List API Please provide a way for third party developers to obtain currently available songs and meta data related to those songs.
Both in a "get all songs" method and "search for songs"
Search should be
- free text (like game/category search)
- song ID (to get specific song data)
- artist ID (to get songs by an artist)
- album ID (to get songs on an album)
- by category/genre (to get say only Dance music or chill out music)

Require Authentication for the Get Chatters Endpoint Currently, this endpoint: https://tmi.twitch.tv/group/user/<CHANNEL>/chatters
Can be used freely without any authentication or scope.
This is definitely being abused with the hate raids. It's been abused by malicious actors for a long time now. Why has this endpoint been created in such a way that there is zero barrier for a malicious actor to obtain user data?
Even the Get Polls endpoint (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-polls) requires both authentication and a scope!
How has that Get Chatters endpoint not yet been removed an replaced with a secure Helix endpoint, as stated here: https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/39145294-chatters-viewers-helix-api-endpoint
This is not ok.

Missing User's subscriptions functionality for the subscriptions endpoint On helix we can only get people that are subscribed to a broadcaster, we can't get the broadcasters a user is subscribed to.
So basically we've got V5 channels/<channel ID>/subscriptions.
We are missing V5 <user ID>/subscriptions/<channel ID>.11 votesSome of the requested functionality is available with the Check User Subscription API.

Introduce a new live chat interface based on PubSub Having written one and a half client libraries for IRC now, I wish Twitch Chat was exposed over a more consistent protocol.
- Allow read-only access to chat messages (and other related live data and events) via PubSub, with clean re-designed JSON Chat message payloads
- No longer identify channels and users by their login name, use user IDs for all purposes
- Send messages via an API call
Most importantly, I would expect a redesigned API to think of edge-cases in a better way than IRC currently does. For example, what happens on IRC if a channel gets suspended, or a channel…

Create Sandbox/Testing Environment for API Twitch currently completely lacks any sort of API testing feature. This causes extreme difficulty for debugging code made with the Twitch API.
This is unacceptable when the vast, vast majority of websites/software that have a public API have some sort of testing feature that sends tests through the same API endpoints as production.
For example, a piece of software I was working on recently worked great, but it turned out that events for subscriptions was broken. We have absolutely no way to test subscription events through the Twitch Pub/Sub API besides actually buying subs. I didn't actually fix it until…

Helix Send Chat Message Endpoint The helix send chat message endpoint ought to:
- Support replying to another message id
- Include the new message's id in the response object
The new id is relevant for tracking (thread) replies to messages created by the local user. In addition the message id can be relevant for other endpoints like delete message.
If id cannot be included in the response object, at least allow us to specify client-nonce tag so it is easier to identify the corresponding message id (when subscribed to chat messages in the channel)
