  1. Even tho https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/40340764-add-client-id-headers-to-examples is marked as completed the docs are still 90% outta date for helix changes (According to Barry)

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/guide#rate-limits still talks about not provided tokens

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api#step-2-sample-code still doesn't use a OAuth token

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api#step-3-results Is incorrect because step 2 doesn't use a OAuth token

  3. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-users

    Mentions User OAuth and the optional scope, but doesn't mention that you can use an app access token for this endpoint to get "public" data.

    Authentication
    User OAuth Token
    Optional scope: user:read:email
    If this scope is provided, the response includes the user’s email address.
    

    Should probably read

    Authentication
    - App Access Token
    - User OAuth Token any/no scopes
    - User OAuth Token with scope: user:read:email response includes the user’s email address.

    Brief description
    The channel:read:redemptions scope is required by the Channel Points PubSub topic (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/pubsub#topics) but not mentioned in the scopes overview (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication#scopes)

    Expected documentation
    The channel:read:redemptions listed on the overview page (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication#scopes)

  6. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-channel-information

    Omits the description of "broadcastername" and as per https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/3 it's the "dISpLaYNaME" of the caster not the username.

    So we have to do a second lookup to get the login for embed purposes

  8. Step 2 is unclear or wrong.

    I'm unable to make it work only by changing the Client-ID, nor removing the Authentication headers.
    You should precise that both need to be changed. Or maybe the OAuth token should work, but it doesn't.

    Fix your documentation it's important for developers that everything written here is clear and easily understandable by anyone (or at least devs).

    I recommend you to make a full review of the entire documentation... (Get some newbie devs to test it, if they do not understand, it's not written correctly)

    Also I really encourage you to make some sample…

  10. The actual docs states that "When you make a request with expired or incorrect authorization credentials, the API returns a WWW-Authenticate header (with an invalid_token error) and a 401 Unauthorized status", but the WWW-Authenticate header is not present in the response.

    Moreover the example shows a kraken endpoint.

  11. At https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication#scopes
    - "channel:manage:brodcast" is misspelled (should be "channel:manage:broadcast")
    - "channel:manage:extension" is misspelled (should be "channel:manage:extensions")

    As metioned in other posts "channel:read:redemptions" is still missing there.

    EventSub is our Webhooks solution. We will remove the legacy Webhooks section of the docs when our Legacy Webhooks product is shut down later this year.

  13. The recent announcement "Updates to PubSub Messages and IRC for Multi-Month Subscription Gifting" (https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/updates-to-pubsub-messages-and-irc-for-multi-month-subscription-gifting/26873) and IRC Tags docs (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/irc/tags#usernotice-twitch-tags) lists the new "msg-params-gift-months" tag, but like all other so far it's actually singular "param" not "params" ("msg-param-gift-months") in reality.

  14. The Helix Users endpoint docs state the "user:read:email" scope as required, although it is an optional scope if you also need the users email returned.

  15. As per

    https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/requiring-oauth-for-helix-twitch-api-endpoints/23916

    None of the documentation is updated to reflect this change.

    Yes it's not required yet. But it's good practice for new developers to be using the new oAuth procedure now

  17. From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/65

    Brief description

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/webhooks-guide

    Limits: By default, each client ID can have at most 10,000 subscriptions. Also, you can subscribe to the same topic at most 3 times.

    Seems to be ambiguous to a lot of developers, they seem to think the that "3 times" means they can renew it 3 times then they are SOOL

    Expected documentation

    Limits: Each client ID can have at most 10,000 subscriptions. Where you can have 3 active subscriptions to a topic at the same time. Where an active subscription is defined as a topic/callback pair.

  19. From: https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues/51

    Brief description

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#helper-viewer

    documentation wrong:

    sessionToken
    Twitch.ext.viewer.isLinked: string
    
    The encoded JWT. This is the same as the token property of the authData parameter that currently gets passed to the onAuthorized callback.
    

    Expected documentation

    sessionToken
    Twitch.ext.viewer.sessionToken: string
    
    The encoded JWT. This is the same as the token property of the authData parameter that currently gets passed to the onAuthorized callback.

    Brief description

    Get Broadcaster Subscriptions doesn't describe how you can use an "App Access Token" for an extension that has sub status enabled, to use the end point

    Expected documentation

    Describe that an "Extension App Access token" can be used when a broadcaster has granted the "channel:read:subscriptions" scope via the Twitch Extension Manager
