  1. 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

  2. The twitch apps games screen is pretty limited. Many have over 100 games on there by now. So I would like to be able to build my own web app and let users log in via twitch and browse their claimed games collection where I can provide filters and search for games using whatever data is available about the games. To do this there must of course be an API where I can retrieve the game list and meta data about them.

  3. There's currently no way to unfollow a game from the API, in any of the existing APIs (helix, v5, v3). You can follow a game in v5, but not unfollow. Helix has nothing related to games/category. The website itself uses GQL.

  4. 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

  8. Right now, most of the PubSub topics are inconsistent with each other (understandably so). This, however, is focusing on cleaning up some of the ChannelPoints event data that is either unnecessary, redundant, or unclear:

    As a note, the information stripped away from the structure is not invalid data, but rather data we likely don't need per message and instead should have a fetch api like manner. One example is the image objects that are likely to never change in the lifetime of a reward. This would save needless encoding as well as any data costs there may be on either…

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

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

  10. There's no gameid or gamename in the helix get videos endpoint.
    Its a bit weird that you get all the information except what's actually being played in the video

  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

  16. Include the displayName in the javascript helper without asking any special permision or without doing any special function (like using bits).
    This value it's only available if the user send bits and the transaction get complete.

  18. Currently the management of extension SKU's is only done via the Developer Rig.

    Since the rig is an optional, many people are developing / testing without using it & the fact that its a development environment, its a strange place to place/manage production SKU's. These would be better managed from the platform itself under the Monetization tab of each Extension.

  19. It seems that it’s currently impossible to determine who is streaming to a shared channel using the Authorized Broadcaster feature. I tested on my own channels and it appears as if the https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/<mysharedchannel> endpoint does not include any information on the authorized broadcaster streaming to that channel.

    Is this something in the works or planned? It would be very helpful for building extensions and bot commands for shared channels.

    Note: when adding an email address to the authorized broadcaster list, it does check that the email is associated with a valid Twitch account, so this information should be available…

  20. Thanks for the new "Get User Emotes" endpoint.

    Here's a bit of an issue with it though. Currently when specifying a channel via "broadcaster_id" it returns the emotes the user can use in all channels and the emotes the user can use only in that channel. That's convenient if I only need to consider a single channel because it's all in a single request.

    However if I need to know this information for several channels, I am forced to request the globally usable emotes again for each channel, which can be a lot of requests. As an example I have…
