Add user profile image and basic game info on /helix/streams for /helix/streams can we add:
profileimageurl from /helix/users
and the game name (and potentially boxarturl) from /helix/gamesThis is very basic info related to the stream and would be really nice to have available in a single call rather than 3 separate calls. This is especially important with bots that are trying to get the status of many streams in a short period quickly racking up api calls

Link to locustfile for load testing extensions not working The formatting of the link to the locustfile in https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/load-testing-extensions#run-your-locust-test is not working because there are code tags in front of and after:

Fixed position or better visibility for important announcements As per a request from Barry, it would helpful if any flagged messages on a page were fixed or visible when loading a bookmarked section. For example, right now there is an important message on the API reference page about OAuth requirements for Helix, but if someone goes directly to https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-streams, they will not see this message currently.

Helix Missing client-id error When no OAuth token is present there's this err:
{
"error": "Unauthorized",
"status": 401,
"message": "OAuth token is missing"
}But a missing client-id doesn't return an error that it is missing, instead it responds with:
{
"error": "Unauthorized",
"status": 401,
"message": "Client ID and OAuth token do not match"
}
(which is the same error if both are sent, but don't match).1 vote -

Clarify read-only nature of IRC MODE command While you do a good job of stating that the IRC interface deviates from the RFC, as well as where and how it deviates from the RFC, it may be beneficial to specifically call out the deviation that the MODE command is server-generated (read only), instead of being a keyword that can be generated by a client.
In other words, my bot cannot issue its own "MODE #channel +o nickname" command via the IRC interface (like it can on IRC), it can only receive notifications from the server that the server has sett one of those modes. One sentence covering…

fix misleading descriptions This documentation isn't clear enough, it implies that the ID attribute should be set to the channel name, but for whatever reason it has to be set to 'chat_embed' and then the channel name goes in the SRC URL, replacing the 'hebo' text. There's no description of how the 'src' attribute should be presented so this isn't immediately clear.

Date/Version on docs In the dev docs, can you add an "Updated" field with the date of when the page was last updated, or what versions the doc works with? Trying as a newbie now, there's some stale info in here.

New Twitch API returning empty results The New Twitch API needs serious attention. I worked considerable with the V3 API and that was rock solid. I'm having a difficult time with the new API. It has a lot of quirks.
My biggest issue now is that certain calls return an empty response with certain parameters.
For example, if I try to filter streams with a gameid and language this will return a result with 0 items sometimes while other times it will return the correct results. The behavior is very inconsistent.
https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?gameid=33214&language=enIt works 100% of the time without the language parameter.

Allow game developers to rename a game Allow game developers to rename a game without going through customer support agents.
Right now I am trying to go through the process of updating the game name, and it has been a **** for 6 months already. Took a month go get the update happen on GiantBomb, waited few months for Twitch to synchronize, which didn't happen, then started writing to support agents.
First reply to my ticket was 2 months after I opened it. Support replied with a canned response about renaming a user...
After reopening the ticket, several weeks later I get the ticket closed again, with…

Insight into percentage of users that interacted with extension Looking for a metric that helps determine what percentage of viewers tried out the extension. A developer can track the viewer count on their own, but they cannot guarantee that the extension loaded for each user. A metric is desired to calculate that X% of users interacted with the extension, not just a raw value of unique interactions.

Add clear all button to Extension whitelists Some developers may need to cycle their Extension's whitelist with a big number of accounts. There's already an option to mass add users to a whitelist. So it's only natural to complement it with a mass delete.

Allow Upload of Category Banners in Developer Site Game developers can currently upload only the boxart, but to upload the banner they have to reach out to Twitch to update. It would be nice to have this moved into the site to make it easier to manage.

API for Ban Appeals The ability to interact with ban appeals with API would be a useful tools for developers who create full moderation/management suites for broadcasters. This could include the ban reason, the appeal reason. This would also help us fill the gaps with missing information that Twitch has right now, like tracking the number of appeals or storing the appeal reason after approved.
