  1. If an extension is updated, there generally isn't a good way to tell streamers about it.

    It would be useful if an extension can push a notification to the bell/notification list, like how drops work/notify.

    And/or find a way to present an update notification to the main Twitch dashboard.

  2. would love a follow button that works like Twitter Follow/Tweet button. To avoid the need to oAuth-loop it and users would prefer that rather than granting access to their account for developers to throw a follow at any channel.

  3. Imagine the following attack for the OAuth 2.0 authorization flow:

    1. Attacker steals the authorization code from the redirect URI.
    2. Attacker forces his instance of the client to redeem the victim's authorization code.
    3. If the attacker's instance of the client is faster than the victim's instance of the client in redeeming the authorization code, the attacker will get a valid login session within his instance of the client, but for the victim's account.

    This attack should especially get attention in the context of Twitch and live streaming, since many streamers are definitely not aware of this vulnerability: If people are logging…

  4. One of the annoyances of the current authorization system is that whenever the broadcaster change their password, they need to reauthorize all apps as well, so developers need to have a way of warning the user to reauthorize it, or they will lose access to its features.

    I understand this is a security feature, but it would be good if that could be handled separately, because a lot of times people just want to change password, and not revoke auth for third party apps

  5. Today when you're using chat you can just enter /ban user and the user will be banned, and the same is true for the IRC command, you can ban just by their username. It would be good if the ban endpoint would follow the same pattern.

    The use case for that is that I have a tool to mass-ban multiple users on multiple channels at the same time (I mod quite a lot of channels, so this streamlines this process), and I decided to migrate from the IRC API to the helix API, but because of it just accepting the…

  6. Similar to - https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/41272606-extend-start-commercial-error-message-to-return-r

    Please provide an endpoint that returns the following information

    • adverts last run
    • adverts can run next (retry_after)
    • adverts max duration

    SImilar to https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/41272606-extend-start-commercial-error-message-to-return-r

    It would be useful to provide better tooling for streamers whom have a contract requiring ads to be run.

  7. Premise: stream.online encodes an id of the stream. stream.offline does not have such an id. Being able to pair this specific id with an online and offline state would be beneficial.

    Objective: Add the matching id to stream.offline that pairs with stream.online

    Notes: While it could be argued that a single broadcaster can only be live with a single id, it is still data oriented wise, more beneficial to have a symmetrical up and down payload, allowing quick queries on a state of a stream. Imagine a scenario where an online and offline event fire roughly at the same time.…

  8. We have bans/timeouts on the bans topic.

    We don't have a feed for message deletions.
    Or whom triggered a raid
    Or whom triggered a host.

    Some channels have a need to track/log all moderator actions for later reconcilliation, not just bans.

    (Or tracking down a rogue mod doing hosts when they shouldn't for example)

  9. Summary:
    A cheer message can be multiple cheers in a single payload. Providing the individual cheer components in an int array would provide data that is not currently there. Emote placement, while also desired, would be still more work than should be necessary at first glance to determine the bits used.

    Example: **
    BarryCarlyon PogChamp100 PogChamp100 Party100 Wow Soaryn is Frustrated!
    This would result in **"bits": 300;
    however this is incomplete and would be desired to also have something like "bits_used": [100,100,100]

    Reasoning:
    While again, emote placement would help, determining the bits used from it would be extra and redundant…

  11. With the new Raids API, it should mirror IRC where channel editors can trigger raid/unraid. Currently, this is not supported (need broadcaster user access token). Until this functionality is added, I will not be migrating to Helix Raids

  12. The problem occurred after the release of an extension game i developed, where the viewers could spend channel points to obtain in-game currency. With over 6000 viewers, the chat became impossible to moderate as there were so many messages per second. This very simple option would greatly relieve the chat in such situations.

    E.g.: "is_highlighted" (defaults to true)

  13. A topic to account for emotes being added or remove from "global" or a specific ChannelID would be useful.

    It's hamstrung by

    https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/39547780-emotes-by-channelid

    As we can't catch up

    There are a number of Twitch Extensions that would be good to know if/when emotes change. (HypeMeter for example)

    And Developers of single channel bots will need to know so they can add/remove emotes from any channel commands.

    It's also useful for custom channel tooling to keep lists up to date in custom tooling if/when https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/41137957-upload-emotes is actioned as well

    This includes but is not limited to

    • regular subscriber emotes
    • bits/cheer emotes

  14. The new mod view is great and all.

    But it would be useful if extensions can add items to the Automod queue for moderators to moderate user submitted content (as per the new #7 guidelines for extension content moderation).

    And said item have webhook/EBS powered accept/reject buttons or similar

  15. Add subscriptionStatus to extension JWT. Currently subscriptionStatus is in Twitch.ext.viewer. With it in the JWT, it can be verified by an extension backend.

  16. Extend

    https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-eventsub-subscriptions

    To add a optional query string param of id to allow developers to lookup a single subscription.

    If a developer stores the ID's when the subs are created, they may want to spot check a single ID's status, or check the settings of it, without having to paginate or manually filter the results returned when using on of the currently offered filter options

  18. When streamers run ads, they'd like to know how long the PreRolls are disabled for.

    Please extend https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#start-commercial to return preroll data

    For example

    {
    "data": [{
    "length" : 60,
    "message" : "",
    "retry_after" : 480
    }]
    }

    becomes

    {
    "data": [{
    "length" : 60,
    "message" : "",
    "retryafter" : 480,
    "preroll
    ends": unixTimestamp
    }]
    }
