  2. This page suggests "OAuth Authorization code flow" but i don't believe this is correct because for a chatbot to be effective you would need the access token to never expire or the process to handle expiry and refresh to be event driven. Having a robot/non-existing user login seems misleading or wrong.

  3. There are reference to V5 API here to get user and channel ID.
    Combined with the GitHub Sample at https://github.com/twitchdev/pubsub-javascript-sample that is still using it this is very confusing to get to work.
    Suggest to update the sample and this article to reference the helix APIs instead.

  4. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/irc

    As a getting started/IRC docs landing page is confusing new developers

    As it references

    The token to authenticate your chatbot with Twitch's servers. Generate this with https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ (a Twitch community-driven wrapper around the Twitch API), while logged in to your chatbot account. The token will be an alphanumeric string.

    And doesn't reference anything about the "right way" to auth/scopes needed

    Until the end of the guide.

    Authentication using not a third party site should be more prevalent in the guide.

  5. Declares that only broadcasterid and rewardid are required.

    A call to

    https://api.twitch.tv/helix/channel_points/custom_rewards/redemptions?broadcaster_id=10817445&reward_id=e28e55f3-9743-4365-840c-b4e2b82d386f

    results in

    {
    "error": "Bad Request",
    "status": 400,
    "message": "missing redemption status"
    }

    The documentation lists status as not required

  6. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/irc/tags#usernotice-twitch-tags documents anonsubgift and anongiftpaidupgrade. I found this announcement post https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/anonymous-sub-gifting-to-launch-11-15-launch-details/18683 saying that apparently it was temporarily disabled as a workaround. As far as I can tell to this day the workaround is used. The documentation should be updated to remove the originally planned but never put into service types, and instead document that anonymous gifts come from AnAnonymousGifter.

  7. The examples for Google Analytics suggest using jQuery. Which is extra bloat if an extension hasn't use jQuery to start with and can lead to confusion

  8. As per this other uservoice

    https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/39645769-moderator-actions-pubsub-topic-should-work-for-all

    The moderation actions PubSub at time of writing requires a key from the channel you wish to listen to with the scope channel:moderate

    However the scopes page

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/#scopes

    is mis leading as it only talks about how the scope works for chat leading to confusion with pubsub operation

    "Perform moderation actions in a channel. The user requesting the scope must be a moderator in the channel."

    The wording needs to be changed and/or the pubsub topic adjusted to support being able to read moderator events as a moderator

  9. Extensions Manager Overview -> Capabilities -> Request Identity Link

    Description refers to viewer as a male ('his'). This is likely to offend some people?

  11. From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/72

    Brief description

    By default, pop-out control is enabled for panel Extensions and for extension “live configuration views” (see the Live Config Path setting on the Asset Hosting tab in the Extensions manager).

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/required-technical-background

    The documentation suggests that extension developers can disable pop-outs. Which is not the case

  12. From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/70

    Brief description

    The documentation for creating signing JWT's don't explicitly state that user_id/channel_id in JWT's need to be an explicit string literal

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/building/#signing-the-jwt
    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#send-extension-pubsub-message

    Expected documentation

    Where:
    exp is the Unix epoch timestamp when the payload will expire. Be sure to provide a buffer, to allow potential positive time drift.
    user_id is the Twitch user ID that owns the extension, where the user ID is cast as a string literal.
    role is set to external.

  13. From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/69
    Brief description

    Some endpoints return a 204 code no content.
    But this is only highlighted in the example responses and not in the "main documentation"

    For example

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#send-extension-pubsub-message
    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#send-extension-chat-message

    Each endpoint documented could be extended to include usual HTTP response codes.

    Expected documentation

    The expected response code for success when theres no body response
    Common non 2xx codes for the endpoints

  14. From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/55

    Brief description

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/building#using-the-configuration-service

    Doesn't mention the key bit of information regarding the size limit of 5kb

    Additional context or questions

    It's important to note here as people will start designing an extension and then discover the sizing limit late into construction of an extension. For clarity the limit should be noted here also

    the hub.topic section is out of date, in the JSON Body Parameters

    Expected documentation

  16. In your list of followed streamers, you can see which ones you have a gift subscription to. It would be great to see which channels you subscribe to in this list as well.

  18. Yandere Simulator has done a lot changes to since 5 years ago since its been banned including censoring blood pools, nudity and panty shots to make video streams more friendly. I recommend taking second look at game for all improvements its great game and deserves second chance. I wasn't sure to place category I apologize for that. All I'm asking is for second look at game in its current state for reconsidered banned that is all and thank you for your time.

  19. Add examples of popular 3rd party libraries.

    The current example is very specific and only targets one language. Many community driven libraries are continuously developing and mainting IRC capablities in languages such as; Python, JS/TS, C# and more.

    It would be nice in general to see more support for these libraries and even giving some sort of verfication to popular libraries that are maintained and meet quality standards.
