Search streams by Tag name Hey, not sure if this has been posted as a uservoice already, I took a quick glance using the above title as a query and couldnt find anything about it.
It would be nice with the new Custom Tags feature that we would be able to get a list of streams with x tag(s) for 3rd party use. Id envision this to either be its own endpoint, or potentially added to the
query
property of the "Get Streams" endpoint, like Kraken used to do with title searching (Which also would be nice to have back in Helix)51 votes -
Channel Analytics API There needs to be an API that allows for the return of channal analytics.
This would have the reqiured query parameters of: broadcaster_idOnly stating the broadcaster_id could return the following results:
- Average viewers
- Total views
- Average new followers per stream
- Total followers
- Average subscribers per stream
- Total subscribers
- Average minutes watched per stream
- Total minutes watchedIt could also return:
- Best performing catagories
- Best performing tagsThere would idealy also be some optional query parameters: start-date, end-date, time.
Adding the optional query parameters would also add the result:

Moderator Actions PubSub topic should work for all moderators of the channel The
chat_moderator_actions
topic in the PubSub documentation appears to only work with a broadcaster OAuth token. This prevents third-party modding tools that don't use some kind of centralized system from accessing information that is vital for effective modding (such as which mod performed an action, actions that aren't otherwise visible like unbans and viewing and approving messages filtered by AutoMod).With a centralized system the broadcaster could provide a token somehow that the moderators don't need to have access to directly, however with purely clientside tools this is not feasible. I'm also not sure why moderators should not have access…

Make embeds work on iOS web based apps (like ionic) While it works on Android, it is still impossible to use iframe embeds on web-based mobile iOS apps. The reason being that iOS' WKWebView expects
<schema>://<host>
in the CORS headers returned by Twitch. Twitch uses theparent
parameter to generate those headers. Unfortunately, iOS prevents the use ofhttp://
,https://
andfile://
as schemas and forces us to use a custom schema likeionic://localhost
(or anything else) for accessing local files.The request is to add the ability for twitch embeds to return a CORS header that can match a custom scheme like
ionic://localhost
.I read through all…

Stream title searching "The v5 endpoint searched for the channel title and category. Use “Search Channels” to match channel name or title." on https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/migration is wrong because the new API does not matches the title! There is no replacement for title searching!

Add PKCE Support to the OAuth2.0 Authorization Code Flow I am currently developing a native Android application for Twitch and want to make use of the OAuth2.0 API. Since the Twitch Authorization Server doesn't seem to support the PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange), i will have to put my client secret into my native application, which isn't secure at all, because the app can easily be decompiled.
This is a requirement for all native apps, as stated by the IETF in RFC 7636 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7636).
I hope to see this implemented soon, because this poses a huge security risk for all native apps and their developers.

Extension bits - adjustable Streamer-Developer Share Why is the share always 80% streamer and 20% developer? Would be way better if the developers could decide their extension percentage.
If I sell an cosmetic item in my game ( on my website) for 5$ I get like 4.8$
If I want to sell the same item on twitch I would need to sell it for 24$ to get 4.8$So as developer I have these options:
- Don't use Bits -> Streamer receives 0$
- Link to our website -> Streamer receives 0$
- Make prices way to expensive -> nobody buys -> Streamer receives 0$
So if you make…

Extend videos API to allow editors (and above) to automate downloads In a similar fashion as
The Videos API should be extended to provide the (original) VOD to authenticated users where that user is an Editor or better of the channel.
As in unmuted.
For the purpose of backing up/taking a copy of the Twitch stream and/or taking that content (that the streamer owns) for use on other platforms.
Editors can already do this via the Video Dashboard, so the API should support this also

Get moderators endpoint - remove need for broadcaster authorization The Helix /moderation/moderators endpoint currently requires an OAuth token from the broadcaster. Given you can just do /mods in any chat (not requiring authorization from the broadcaster), what is the point of requiring the authorization here?

Add support for Alerts to be triggered by Third Party Developers As there now is a first-party Alerts System, TPD should be able to trigger said alerts or alerts with a custom payload as well. This allows external sources to show alerts that fit the Creator/Brand, all without requiring additional sources to be set up, taking up precious resources. (See also: External Donations and Tips or even Games)

Re-add created at, streak and/or expires to Check User Subscription In Twitch v5, the Get User Subscription endpoint contained a created_at and a streak for the current user subscription for a broadcaster.
Helix, lacks this functionality, and thus it is impossible to determine how long someone has been subscribed for, and also impossible to determine if they've renewed their subscription.
These fields are imperative to some applications, especially ones that want to externally reward members monthly for each month they've subscribed. Please return these fields to the endpoint!

Bot auto follow a channel With the removal of the Follow Create endpoint.
A "non moderation bot" can no longer be automatically added to a channel.
The owner of the bot would have to "login" to the account and manually follow the channel(s) the bot joins.A "non moderation" bot doesn't run moderation commands, so giving it "mod" wouldn't make sense. (Which would bypass the follow requirement)
Please provide a way to "authorise adding a bot to a channel" that will auto follow the bot to the channel. For this purpose
This could be similar to how Discord does bots, where to add a bot…

2FA status in users endpoint (when authing as the user) We third party dev's often build tools that assist with moderation actions/services for broadcasters.
We tell Moderators to enable 2FA, but we have no way to check it.
It would be useful to block Logins to our tool if 2FA is not enabled. But 2FA data is not surfaced in the API and there's no way to require a User to be 2FA during the login/oAuth loop.
I'd like to see the users endpoint(s) provide 2FA status.
I expect this to be behind the user read or openID scopes.openID allows email verified. Why not 2fa status (for example)

IRC Request: Follow tag to filter out non follower messages Currently, it is easy to tell if a user that sent a message in a streamer’s channel is a subscriber, VIP, or moderator of that channel. However, there is no way to tell if that user is a follower of the channel.
With the rise of hate raids and malicious messages, I want to ensure that if a streamer is using a chat box overlay, that they have the option to only let messages from followers appear. Malicious users usually don’t follow the channel, and so this will prevent their messages from appearing on stream.
I do understand that this…
